There are three main types of folders:- Standard Folder - this is a container for other folders and/or BI objects, and is used for organizational purposes. It will behave just like a folder on your local computer, but will operate like a web page with active links. A bright
yellow icon specifies Standard folders.
- Package Folder - this folder is similar to a Standard Folder, but internally it contains pre-defined business rules and metadata related to sources of information. It is used by the Studios to create new queries, reports, analyses,
etc. A dark blue icon specifies Package folders.
- Metrics Folder - Metrics folders are used by the Metrics Studio to store metrics-related information. While the standard behavior upon selecting the other two folder types is to show their contents, a Metrics Folder will open up directly into Metrics Studio. A dark blue icon with colored dots specifies metrics folders.
