You can organize entries into folders. Having folders that are logically labeled and organized helps you easily locate reports. For example, you might want to create folders in My Folders or Public Folders to help you organize your entries.
You can create folders in the following locations:
Public Folders
Entries that are placed in Public Folders are of interest to and can be viewed by many users. When the focus is on the Public Folder tab, the content is grouped by packages or folders. Each package contains a single model and all related entries, such as folders, reports, jobs, report views, agents, metrics, URLs, and shortcuts.
My Folders
You create personal folders and use them to organize entries according to your preferences. My Folders are accessible by you only when you are logged on.

In ATG Reporting Center, go to the location for the new folder.
Click the new folder button on the portal toolbar.
In the Name box, type the name of the new folder.
If you want, in the Description and in the Screen tip box, you can type a description of the entry. The description appears in the portal when you set your preferences to use the details view. The screen tip, which is limited to 100 characters, appears when you pause your pointer over the icon for the entry in the portal.
If you do not want to use the target folder shown under Location, choose another location:
Click Select another folder, select the target folder, and click OK. If the folder box is empty, go back one folder level using the path at the top of the dialog box.
Click Select My Folders as the location.
Click Finish. The new folder has the same permissions as the parent folder. For information about changing access permissions, see “Managing Access Permissions“.
