Folder

Note: Folders are not unique to a company.

A folder stores and organizes all report information you define, such as the rows and columns. You must define at least one folder, but you can create as many as necessary. You can run reports by folder. You can also assign a user class to a folder, which lets only a select group of users add or maintain information in a folder.

Information stored in folders

Folders store these report components:

  • Report Writer (RW00.1)

  • Rows (RW10.1)

  • Format (RW20.1)

  • Ratio (RW30.1)

  • Groups (RW40.1)

  • Compute Statements (RW50.1)

  • Total Range (RW60.1)

  • Total Names (RW70.1)

Example

LGE Corporation has three employees working in the corporate accounting department. Each employee is responsible for creating a specific set of reports. They defined three folders, one for each employee. Using the folders along with user classes as described in the succeeding topics, they can each maintain a private and secure working area.
