File Folders

File folders can exist under a Field or a Well group or a Well . They are created automatically when the first file is uploaded to a well or a field (see File Management for more details).

There is only one Files folder under a given field or well group or well. However, subfolders may be created under the parent Files folder. For KAPPA-Workstation files inside a given folder, results can be extracted to the Master well properties container in bulk (see Result Extraction into Well Properties for more details).

  2. Under the Info tab, click on File Folder, inl_filefolder_icon.png.

Note

Multiple levels of subfolders may be created.
