Folder management
You can define an unlimited number of folders for templates, Active Content, and Message Content.
A folder name can contain up to 255 characters. Folders can be located at the root level or nested in other folders. Folder settings apply to the folder sub-levels, including templates, Active Content, and Message Content. Specifying settings at an individual level override higher nested settings. Templates and Active Content cannot be published independently together in one folder.
When the front-office user creates a new document, the document version is used. The same version is retained throughout the document life cycle even if the template is updated.
Templates are automatically given a unique version identifier. Template metadata can be used to retrieve templates by effective date.
