Folders can house tasks, subfolders, and subprojects. They're a great way to organize tasks in your workspace so that you can not only keep relevant information together but also ensure that data is grouped in such a way that it can be easily and quickly shared with the right people. Please note, unlike tasks and projects, folders aren't actionable items.
