I GOT IT!!!!! (Sorry, very happy right now). Once I added in the next if statements, and had set to chdir, I made one last change, and the code now works as I want it to!

Once again, a HUGE thank you to everyone that assisted!! Looking forward to continuing my journey here with perl.

Newest code, in case anyone is wondering:

use strict;
use warnings ‘all’;
use File::Copy::Recursive;
use Archive::Zip;
use constant AZ_OK =>0;
use File::Basename;
use File::Find::Rule;

my $mkvingestdir = “//nas/shared/mine/MKV”
my $mkvingestdest = “//nas/shared/group/test/mkv/ingest”;

my @dirs = File::Find::Rule->directory()
                           ->in($mkvingestdir);

foreach my $dir (@dirs) {
     chdir $dir;
     next if $dir =~ /(?:\.|\.\.)/;
     next if $dir eq $mkvingestdir;
     print “Now processing directory $dir\n”;
     my @files = glob "*.eap";
     my $mkvingestzip = Archive::Zip->new();
     foreach $file (@files) {
     $mkvingestzip->addFile($file);
     }

     my $name = basename $dir;

     if ($mkvingestzip->writeToFileNamed("$mkvingestdest/${name}.zip")
    + != AZ_OK) {
     print "Error in archive creation\n";
     next;
     }
     print "Archive created successfully!\n";
}
