Server Explorer directories
The Server Explorer displays the following AX Server directories that contain audit items:
- Library a central, reliable directory used to store verified audit programs and items such as analyics, data tables, and document templates. The Library is also used to store centrally controlled master tables and analytics
- Working a directory used to store current audit projects and other day-to-day audit team work items
For more information about Server Explorer contents, see Server Explorer item type icons.
