# Elements in Directory Structures

## Overview

In directory structures, elements such as apps, scripts, or connections can be grouped together in a structured manner.

A directory structure can be created under any workspace; which elements can be created in the respective directory structure depends on the configuration of the directory structure (see section [Creating and Configuring a Directory Structure](https://support.lucanet.cloud/en/documentation/consolidation-financial-planning/konfiguration-der-arbeitsbereiche/create-configure-directory-structures.md)).

In this chapter, you will learn which elements are available in directory structures, provided that they have been enabled in the configuration.

### Available Object Types

The following object types can be enabled in a directory structure.

#### Next-Generation App

Used to create an app as a functional extension of the Lucanet software.

Currently, the following apps are available:

- [Reclassification of profit or loss from previous periods in reporting entitites](https://support.lucanet.cloud/en/documentation/consolidation-financial-planning/report-analyze/elements-in-directory-structures/reclassification-of-profit-or-loss-in-reporting-entities.md)
- [Adjust and reclassify values in reporting entities](https://support.lucanet.cloud/en/documentation/consolidation-financial-planning/report-analyze/elements-in-directory-structures/adjust-and-reclassify-values-in-reporting-entities.md)

#### Connection

Used to create connections that contain connection information for SQL databases

#### Script

Used to create scripts (see [Creating and Executing Scripts](https://support.lucanet.cloud/en/documentation/consolidation-financial-planning/imports-journals/create-scripts.md))

#### Lucanet.Excel-Reporting

Used to create Excel reports within Lucanet.Excel-Reporting (see [Lucanet.Excel-Reporting](https://support.lucanet.cloud/en/documentation/consolidation-financial-planning/excel-integration/lucanet-excel-reporting.md))

#### Folders

Used to create folders

#### Workflow

Used to create workflows to automatically execute executable elements such as scripts, or data imports in a fixed sequence ([see Executing Multiple Elements Using Workflows](https://support.lucanet.cloud/en/documentation/consolidation-financial-planning/general-functions/executing-elements-using-workflows.md)).
