Project Folders and Organisation

Project folders are purely for navigation — they do not change the data inside each project. Use them to group by client, region, year, phase, or whatever your business requires.

Creating a Folder

  1. In the Projects view, click New Folder on the toolbar.
  2. Name the folder (e.g. "2026 Tenders").
  3. Optionally choose a parent folder for nesting.
  4. Pick an icon and colour.

Folder Metadata

  • Name, description, colour, icon.
  • IsSystem — system folders (like a default "Unfiled") cannot be deleted.
  • SortOrder — drag-sort siblings.

Permissions on Folders

Folders can be restricted via FolderAccessControl / FolderUserPermission records. See 15.2 for the admin view.

Permissions on a folder cascade to all projects inside unless explicitly overridden at the project level.

Deleting a Folder

You cannot delete a folder that still contains projects or sub-folders. Move or delete contents first.
