The 'Company Drive' in the files repository serves to securely store and share mission-critical and sensitive files, including proprietary plans, contracts, and other confidential documents. Access is limited to your company level so that the files can only be shared among the project team members within your organization.
- The drive allows users to create folder tree structures with root, branch, and subfolders for efficient organization of files as deemed fit.
- The folder and subfolders can be set up with access restrictions to allow only selected project team members from your company.
- Users can also enter comments, if any, related to the files in the drive.

- Click the app launcher and select 'Project'
- Select 'Drive' from the options on the left
- Select the drive with your company name as the label to open the 'Company Drive'
The table shows the hierarchical list of folders in your company drive. The 'Default View' shows all columns in the table.
