Select the object's folder

The Select Folder step determines the object store or folder where the new object is added. Your template can define a specific object store or folder, or you can let the user determine the object's location.

Note: If you do not have access rights to add items to the selected folder, an Unable to create the section error message appears after the end of the wizard.

To define the preset location for a new object:

  1. Select an object store from the list. The object store is added to the Path near the top of the page and a list of folders is displayed.
    Tip: To change the selected object store, click Object Stores in the Path.
  2. Optionally, select a folder from the list of folders. Keep in mind that if the Require folder selection site preference is disabled, users are not required to file their items into a folder.
  3. Select the display option for the Select Folder step in the add wizard.
    • To permit users to change the location when adding an object, select Show Select Folder step. This option is selected by default.
    • To prevent users from changing the location, select Hide Select Folder step.
  4. (Optional) Limit the available folder locations. Select the Constrain to folder selected or its sub-folders check box to force users to select the predefined folder or one of its subfolders. If you clear this check box, the users can select any folder.
