Foldered Information
The Windchill conceptual model for information storage is based on the organization provided by an operating system. The components of this model include the following:
Cabinets -- a type of folder that is the top-level organizing mechanism in the Windchill solution. A cabinet is analogous to a disk drive in the Windows operating system. When cabinets are exposed in your Windchill application, they appear as root folders and the context name is displayed rather than the cabinet name. Cabinets such as the System, Network, and Type Definitions cabinets are not exposed.
Subfolders -- a type of folder that holds objects and resides in cabinets or other subfolders.
Folder members (also called foldered objects) -- objects that must be stored in a folder.
The following sections provide more information about cabinets, subfolders, and access control rules related to foldered information.
