Folders for distributions

Distributions can be organised into folders. This is particularly useful in projects involving a large number of distributions. Unlike evaluation folders, however, distribution folders are not separate permission objects and cannot therefore further restrict access to the distributions they contain.

Create a folder

  1. In the “Data Collection” section, first select a location and then a location medium.
  2. You can create a folder using the button. To do this, the medium must have the “Distributions” permission with “Edit” access.
