How to Add Custom Folders to Your Directory Templates

Updated over 2 months ago

You can now create custom folders within the file directories of jobs, assets, and staff profiles. This allows you to organise your documents more effectively based on your own structure and naming preferences.

What This Feature Does

This feature allows you to:

  • Add custom folders to the file directory structure for jobs, assets, and staff profiles.

  • Remove default folders you no longer need, so they won’t appear in new entries.

  • Maintain a consistent folder setup across your organisation.

How to Add Custom Folders

  1. Go to Settings > Directory Templates.

  2. Select the relevant category: Jobs, Assets, or Staff.

3.Add your custom folder name to the list by hitting on Create Default Folder.

Your custom folder will now appear in the file directory for any new job, asset, or staff profile created after saving.

How to Remove Default Folders

  1. In the same Directory Templates section, you’ll see the list of default folders.

  2. Simply remove any folders you no longer want to appear by hitting to bin icon.

  3. These folders will no longer be included in the file directory of new jobs, assets, or staff profiles created after the change.

Note: Folder changes only apply to new entries created after the update. Existing records will retain their original folder structure.

Example

If you add a folder called “Site Photos” and remove “General Notes” under the Job category, all new jobs will include “Site Photos” and exclude “General Notes” in their file section.
