Tech Tip: Assigning Default Volumes to Folders
September 2nd, 2008 Comment on this articleIn the Laserfiche 8 Client, you can assign a default volume to a folder. This ensures that all documents scanned, imported, or created inside a folder are stored on a specific volume.
For example, the following folders exist under the root of an organization’s repository. Each folder represents the top-most folder for a department in the organization.
The administrator of this repository has created three volumes, one for each department. To ensure that files are stored on the correct volume (e.g., to ensure that Sales documents are stored on the Sales volume), the administrator has defined a default volume for each department’s folder.
To define a folder’s default volume, right-click the folder and select Properties. In the Folder tab, select a volume from the drop-down list.
All new folders created in a repository inherit their immediate parent’s default volume setting. Folders copied or moved into a folder will not inherit their new parent’s default volume.
