Organizing "Searches and Reports" and "Views"

What's the best way to organize "Searches and Reports" and "Views"? I'm trying to figure out some type of structure before it's to late. Currently we have 20 - 30 of each and it's a pain selecting "Searches and Reports" and seeing ALL searches ditto for "Views".

I would like to create a service subfolder and add searches and reports that are associated to that service.

Is this possible? I'm running Splunk 4.1.6

Yes it does. You can just nest the <collection> tags one into each other.

<collection label="Status">
    <collection label="Search activity">
      <view name="search_status" />
      <view name="search_detail_activity" />
      <view name="search_user_activity" />
      <view name="search_ui_activity" />
    </collection>
    <collection label="Index activity">
      <view name="index_status" />
....

NM. I figured it out.

Does Splunk 4.1.6 support multi-level nav menu?
