Document Folder View

Filing Documents in Folders alters the behavior when you expand Documents.  Normally they would just be listed in order of descending date.
When this option is selected you get the Folder view when you expand (click on the down arrow)
TIP if you want a specific order you can rename the document types so that they are sorted to the desired position.  Here Pharmacy is considered low priority documents and is labelled a.Pharmacy.  Highest priority (z) has been assigned to z.Consults.  While renaming is not supported from the UI, you can add a new doc type and inactivate an old one.
