I need to create a rather complex folder structure.
It is OK to create that in dired but I think even nicer and faster it would be to create an org-mode outline which then exports this folder structure to the org document's directory.

* Folder
- Registry.xls
- document.doc
 
** Subfolder

*** Subsubfolder
- some_document.txt

** Subfolder 2

* Another folder

** another one
- document.file_extension
- ListB.xlsx


With that functionality I could really thoroughly create a decent folder structure. With many people working on the windows server it becomes quite chaotic. 
Thanks in advance for any answer.
