When you view available folders, standard folders appear in grey and personal folders that you have created appear in blue.

If you move an item that was created in a different partition than the one in which you're working, and if the selected folder exists on that partition, the item is archived there. If the selected folder does not exist on that partition, the item is moved to the Archive Items folder on that partition.

Ariba Buyer provides standard folders, and enables you to create your own folders, in which to organize requests and documents.

The standard folders are automatically populated with requests as you work with them. You cannot delete or modify standard folders. The standard folders include:

• Status Items, which contains all requests of all status types (such as Composing or Submitted). By default, all requests are organized into this folder.
• Approve Items, which contains all requests that you need to approve or deny. This folder is similar to the Approve Status screen.
• Archive Items, which contains requests that you have already acted on and have asked to archive. When you approve or deny a request, you can choose to move the request into the Archive Items folder.

You can move folder items from one folder to another, and even create your own folders. For example, you might want to create folders to organize requests by departments or amounts.
