A folder is a place where you can store your reports, dashboards, documents, or email templates. Folders can be –
- Public
- Hidden
- Shared
- Read-only
- Read/Write
Roles, permissions, public groups and license types decide who has access to the folder. As an administrator/owner, you can make a folder Public(means your entire organisation can view that folder) or Private(means only you can view that folder).
- To access Document folder, you need to click on the Document Tab. A document library is a place where you should store all your files without attaching them to accounts, contacts, opportunities or with other records. Each document in the document library resides in a folder. The folder’s permission determines the folder’s accessibility and also the documents inside it.
- To access Email Template folder, click Communication Templates | Email Templates.
- To access Report folder, click Reports Tab.
- To access Dashboard folder, click Dashboards Tab.
User Permission needed:
- To create/edit/delete public document folder: “Manage public documents”
- To create/edit/delete public email template folder: “Manage public templates”
- To create/edit/delete public report folder: “Manage public reports”
- To create/edit/delete public dashboard folder: “Manage public dashboards” and “View All Data”
Few points to remember:
- If the folder access is set to “Read/Write”, then only you can modify the content of a folder.
- Only users with “Manage public documents”/”Manage public templates” can delete or change a Read Only folder.
- Regardless of permissions or folder settings, user can’t edit any unfiled or personal folders.
- You can only delete a folder which is empty.
Please provide your feedback. Thanks.
