Personally I like separating the Inbox, Outbox, Specs and Reports so I have:
. DOCSIN . DOCSOUT . REPORTS . GUIDES I know from past issues that I almost always am chasing an issue for a specific Partner, so within the DOCSIN and DOCSOUT I have a folder for each Partner. . DOCSIN\WalMart . DOCSIN\Dillards or . DOCSOUT\PCWC . DOCSOUT\ODW For awhile I had considered further breaking each of those folders down by Document like: . DOCSIN\WalMart\850 . DOCSIN\WalMart\860 . DOCSIN\WalMart\816 But I abandoned that as it usually seemed that research into a specific issue often touched more than one document from the Partner in a day, so having them in a single folder was good. Further, my "Incoming Document Names" tend to be very "simple" (e.g. WalMart.850.txt), but my outgoing documents have (at least) the date builtin (e.g. PWCW.945.<CYMD>.txt) Oh, and I don't think the question was vague. Suggested asked for. Suggestions given. Its up to the receiver of advice to take it or not. and to apply it as they might.
