# Baskets

Documents are placed into baskets in order to organize and de-clutter your dashboard.

A *basket* is simply a container in which you may place documents. This allows you to reduce the clutter that can build up in the dashboard as more and more documents are uploaded. A document may only belong to one basket at a time, though it need not be in any basket at all.

Baskets are commonly used to organize documents based on:

- the user responsible for the document
- workflow status (e.g. completed versus in-progress)
- the documentation set to which it belongs
- a combination of the above

*Example: basket names*

- - Benjamin's documents
  - Model TX4000
  - Model TX4000 - in progress
  - Model TX4000 - completed
