Everything in its right place.
Folders are used to organize Checklist records into a structure that has context and meaning to your business.
They can be used to represent:
- Customers
- Locations
- Departments
- Projects
or anything that makes sense to group records together by.
Every Folder has 3 Checklists types based on their status.
Active
Holds any in progress checklists. Even if a Checklist is 100% completed if it has not had the Finish button clicked it will be flagged as Active.
Completed
Holds all the Checklists that have been submitted as completed.
Scheduled
Shows you any Checklists that are Scheduled to be created in this folder at any point in the future.
Sub Folders
You can created a nested hierarchy of folders to match how you think about and segment your business concepts. For example you may have a "Customers" parent folder with a folder per Customer underneath.
Sub folders are visible in the side bar where you can navigate them:
