Office object. Name?

0 Hi folks, I need a help. I'm wondering the right name of an object normaly used in a office. It's a kind of folder/case that we check daily and it has alphanumerical divisions where we put the bills that will expire, so daily we look into it to pay the bills in the right day.02br
02br
00Any idea how is it called? Is it "Follow-up"?02br
02br
00Thanks in advance. 0-
