Introduction

A controlled directory is a resource that organizes and connects directories located on different servers, providing a single solution for storing and managing electronic files. This flexible structure allows each directory to be configured with a view to meeting requirements as to location, categorization, and temporality, ensuring:

• Optimized access: files are stored close to the teams or processes that use them the most.
• Structured organization: directories can be linked to items, categories and record retention schedules, facilitating documental and operational management.
• Centralized configuration: a single control point for managing where and how electronic files will be stored.

Practical application example

Imagine that a multinational company with branches in different countries uses SoftExpert Suite to manage documents and items related to its internal processes. With the controlled directory resource, this organization can configure the storage of electronics in a more strategic manner, according to the needs of each unit.
