Inserting a folder shared with me, inside another folder
Is there a way to move a folder that has been shared with me, into another folder that I created in my account?
BACKGROUND: I use Box to archive my client's documents. We created an account in their name, create a primary folder named ABC Archives, and they in turn share the folder with me as an Admin/Editor. So when I log into my Box account the client folders (ABC Archives, XYZ Archives, etc.) are listed on the All Files page.
I then create a second folder for each client (ABC Working Files, XYZ Working Files, etc.), where I keep additional files such as Correspondence, Documentation, Project Notes, etc. that are for my personal reference and not shared.
I would like to have only one folder per client in my primary "All Files" page instead of 2, but folders shared with me do not have the "Move" option. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to go about handling this? Do I need a different file structure? Is the "Move" feature for shared files only available on paid plans?

Hi Aurora,
Welcome to the Box Community!
At present, if you are not the owner of a folder, you cannot move it to another location or another folder.
This idea has been shared to our Product Team in Box Pulse-our feedback site, where users would like the ability to have a "Shared with me- Folder Management for Collaboration Folders". The suggestion is currently 'Under consideration' but you may also add your vote and share your use case on the comment section on how this will be useful for you and your organization.Our product managers review these requests and take them into consideration for future product development.Thanks for your participation in the Community!
