My "Saving books to disk" template is (one subdir per book language).
{languages}/{#brtime}-{author_sort} - {series:|(| } {series_index:0>2s|#|) - }{title}
Why create a custom column? You can do the same thing in the save-to-disk template
Code:
{languages}/{timestamp:format_date(yyyyMMddhhmm)}-{author_sort} - {series:|(| } {series_index:0>2s|#|) - }{title}
You can also use the last_modified date, which is the last time the metadata for the book changed.
Code:
{languages}/{last_modified:format_date(yyyyMMddhhmm)}-{author_sort} - {series:|(| } {series_index:0>2s|#|) - }{title}
