Repository Folders

Folders can be used to organize the contents of the repository. For example, you could create different folders for each of the subject areas, or teams working on a project. Folders can be useful for organizing permissions, as any documents checked in in a folder inherit its permissions.

You must have write permission on the location where you want to create the folder.

Note:

A project behaves in a similar fashion to a folder. You can rename a project, delete it, freeze it, or use it to grant access permissions, etc. as for a repository folder. For information about creating a project, see the Projects and Framework Matrices chapter in the Core Features Guide.

Creating a Folder
You can create a folder from the Repository tab of the Browser.
Renaming a Folder
You can easily rename a folder in the repository. When you rename a folder, you must keep in mind that PowerDesigner applies checks on name uniqueness for parent folders directly linked with the root node.
Moving a Folder
You can move folders and documents in the repository. When you move a document, you move it with its entire version tree. You cannot move a single document version nor can you move objects from one model to another.
Deleting a Folder
You can only delete empty folders. You must delete or move any contents before deleting the folder.
