Move an item to a folder

You can file or move an item to a folder. Filing an item in a folder places a reference to the item in the folder, not the item itself. The item itself resides in the library.

When you move items from one folder to another, they are filed only in the destination folder. A document or search is not stored in the folder, only a reference to it. Subfolders reside in the higher level folder.

Note

You can move an item to a folder on the Browse page. On the Search page, you can copy an item to another folder but you can't move an item.

You must have Author or higher access rights to the CS folder to file a document.

You must have Append/Execute access rights to the IS folder to file a document.

To file an item in a folder

  1. Browse to the item you want to move.

  2. Select the item.

  3. Click on the FWS toolbar to specify the folder where you want to file the item.

    A dialog box appears, where you specify the folder to which you want to file the item.

  4. In the To field, enter the full path of the destination folder. Use the forward slash (/)character to separate folder names.

    You can also click Browse to view and browse the folder structure in a library. Click a specific folder, and then click OK. The destination folder's name or ID is inserted in the To field.

    Note

    You cannot move items that are not already filed in folders. To file an item that is not filed in any folder, click on the FWS toolbar to find the item, and then use the Copy command.
