Environment

Zenworks Configuration Management 10.2
Zenworks Configuration Management 10.3

Situation

Need to allow a given bundle to exist in multiple folders but still only have one instance of the bundle for managing.
Currently a new bundle has to be copied or created in each location, when editing the bundle, each copied or created one would need to be edited.
Bundle groups allow for membership of the existing bundles while leaving the one bundle in its current folder.
But this same "alias" or membership type organization does not exist for bundle folders.

Resolution

The current workaround is to create one bundle in one folder and use bundle groups to have it linked to multiple groups, but still have one instance of the bundle to manage.
