Set Up a Job Folder

Use Storage and Folders in the Folders, Reports, & Documents submodule in the Settings module to set up job folders. When you set up job folders, you can use them to upload any file on any job in WorkBook. Users who have access to the Docs tab on Jobs can access uploaded files.

To use Storage and Folders, you must have access to Settings as defined in User Access Rights under Settings.
