Managing folders

BMC Helix Continuous Optimization provides a simple, intuitive, and customizable folder system that allows you to classify the analyses and models that you create.

For each domain, there is a root folder called Works in which you can create your own folder structure, with the required nested levels. Folders can be private or public.
