Level 5* gazumped 12,213 Posted September 2, 2016 Level 5* Posted September 2, 2016 Hi. Evernote doesn't (currently) 'do' depth. Stacks hold notebooks and notebooks hold notes. It is possible to build a 'virtual' folder structure in Tags, which can be nested to any depth. You have a limit of 100,000 tags in total per account, which should keep you busy for a while. Please search the forum for more on folders and tags and check out Organize with tags Tips for organizing notes, notebooks, and tags

And why do that, EN doesn't update the source document in the import folder. Why have the document in two places and have them become different should you modify them? Like I said, not sure I get the use case.

I'm guessing there's some business process/workflow that gets written in that structure on disk, and Bennie wants to import them all via Evernote import folders. But maybe that's not a correct interpretation...
Level 5* CalS 5,311 Posted September 2, 2016 Level 5* Posted September 2, 2016 Yeah, I thought that as well. I'm all about not changing plumbing that works, just seems like a bit of infrastructure for an import process. Perhaps the OP will enlighten us.
