Connects a Folder to the records it contains for organization and navigation.
When to use it
For change records, use the Change Cockpit as the main UI to manage the record and its relationships. Use Folder Content when you need to record this connection between the source and target records. Folder Content reads from Folder to contained record.
Records and direction
- Relationship type: Non-structure. Associates records without creating a parent-child hierarchy.
- From: Folder.
- To: Eligible managed records, including Document.
How to use it
- Create the relation with drag and drop in a Structure widget: drag the intended Document onto the Folder it relates to. Choose Folder Content, review the direction and any offered values, then confirm. When either selected record belongs to a workflow process, use the workflow tools for that connection.
- Alternatively, use Connect from the source record and select the target with the Folder Content relationship.
- Review the resulting connection and the selected record versions where applicable. Check the displayed relationship filters if the connection is not visible.
Example
Pump Documentation (Folder) is connected to Operating Manual P-100 (Document) through Folder Content. The association lets readers follow the related information without creating a hierarchy.
Choosing the relationship
Folder Content reads from Folder to contained record. Folder reads from a managed record to the Folder organizing its information.
