Department Folder Tree Chart Example

Department folder tree chart example.

A folder tree chart makes a shared-drive structure visible before files are moved into it. It separates stable areas such as policies from time-bound project and reporting folders, so staff can predict where a document belongs. Use simple, consistent names and decide who maintains each branch. The archive branch is important because it keeps superseded material available without confusing it with current guidance. For an existing drive, draw the intended future structure first and then plan the move in stages.
