How do folders work in ExpiryEdge?
Folders in ExpiryEdge allow you to organise your compliance records into a hierarchical structure that mirrors your business. You might create folders by location (London Office, Manchester Site), by department (HR, Finance, Operations), by item category (Vehicles, Certifications, Contracts), or any combination that makes sense for your organisation.
Can I control access to specific folders?
Yes. Folder-level permissions allow you to restrict access to sensitive compliance records. A legal folder, for example, might be visible only to the legal team and senior management. An operations folder is accessible to all operations managers. This ensures each person sees only the compliance records relevant to their role.
Can I move compliance items between folders?
Yes. Items can be moved between folders without losing their history, attached documents, or reminder schedules. If a compliance item changes ownership or category, you move it to the appropriate folder and update the owner assignment - the item continues functioning exactly as before.
Is there a limit to how many folders or levels of folders I can create?
No. ExpiryEdge supports unlimited folders and nested folder levels. Large organisations with complex compliance structures can create deep hierarchies - group level, entity level, department level, team level - to match their organisational structure precisely.
Can I search for compliance items across all folders?
Yes. The ExpiryEdge search function works across all folders simultaneously. You can search by item name, type, owner, expiry date, or any custom field. The results show the item's current folder location, so you always know where to find a record even in a large, complex folder structure.
