Folder Properties

• Name - The folder’s name must be unique within the current folder. 
• Suppression rule - This allows the assignment of a suppression rule which could suppress the folder and all of its contents from the output in certain circumstances. See the Suppressing a folder of segments.

Folder Types

• Grouping - A grouping folder is a logical grouping of segments or other folders.  Segments can be grouped together for ease of navigation or for easily suppressing entire sections from the output – see the section titled Content Suppression.
• Variation - A variation folder is similar to a grouping folder with one difference.  Only a single child segment or folder can ever be included in the output.  This is useful to group segments that contain variations of the same content.
