I have a client folder structure like this on my new iMac:
Documents / My Work / Client Name / Client's customer name
so, for each of my clients, I have multiple sub folders with each of their clients.
I'm new to Mac, and I'm wondering if I'm missing something. When I select File / Save or File / Save as in, for example, Word, I seem to only be able to save my file to folders that are set up as "defaults" in the left pane of Finder.
It seems crazy to have to add all my clients and their clients as default folders in Finder as it could be a pretty long list.
How do others deal with this kind of issue? And, my apologies for perhaps not using correct terminology in referring to the default folders in Finder -- I'm a new Mac switcher and I'm still learning the ropes here.
Thanks!

Congrats on your new Mac!
When you are in the Save dialog box, click on the icon with Down Arrow to expand the dialog box. Then in the lower left corner of the box there is a button called "New Folder." Just click on that and give your new folder a name.
