Note
More information about Creatio folders is available in the Folders article.
You can create a custom folder structure, as well as set up rules for populating the folder contents. Deleting a folder will not result in deleting the records contained in it.
Section folders have a tree-like structure. A folder position in the structure does not affect its properties: if a record is included in one of the subordinate folders, it does not necessarily mean it is included in the parent folder.
To create a root folder, select the [All] folder and click the [New folder] button.
To create a subordinate folder, select a parent folder and click the [New folder] button.
