Hello,

If you want to execute code on a regular basis, the best way is toi develop a job.
You should read the following article of the wiki : http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Scheduled_Actions
There's also a sample file (i don't remember but i think it's called scheduled-actions-context.xml.sample).

I need to create some folder based on the document metadata (saved as XML files in the same folder as the original document). Can I do this in scheduled actions.

Can you please point me an example for this or similar job

You can inject alfresco services in your scheduled job class and create node from your scheduler.
