Hi,

From your description, you want to move documents to a Folder in the same library after a time period.

I am afraid that we can't  move documents to a Folder in the same library with workflow.

You can move documents to a different library with configuring information management policy settings:

For detailed information, refer to the following article:

Refer to the following article about configure send to connections in SharePoint 2010:

Hi Lisa,

     Thanks for your reply. I know about this one but trying to find out if there is any other way to do it in the same library. Using designer workflow we can create a folder in a different library. But cannot able to find with in the same library.

Hi

We can create a folder in the same library with workflow, refer to the following screenshot:

For more detailed information, refer to the following article about create folders with SharePoint workflow:

But I don't think that we can move documents to a Folder with OOTB workflow.
