    Move Objects to a New Location

    AvePoint Opus supports moving physical boxes/folders to a destination location.

    To move physical boxes/folders, complete the following steps:

    1. Navigate to Physical records > Explorer.

    2. Select the physical boxes/folders that you want to move to a new location.

    3. Click Move.

    4. In the Move window, select a destination location from the tree.

    5. Select a conflict resolution if a box/folder with the same name already exists in the destination:

      *Note: The relationship among related records will be removed if you choose to overwrite the destination file.

      • Skip and keep the destination object

      • Overwrite the destination object

      • Add a suffix to the file when moved to the destination

    6. Click Save to save the configurations.

    Note the following:

    - If source folders are already on hold, but the destination box is not on hold, the folders will remain on hold in the destination after being moved. - If source folders are not on hold, but the destination box is already on hold, the folders will be placed on hold using the hold in the destination after being moved. - If both source folders and the destination box are already on hold, a **Conflict** **resolution** window appears. Select an option to prevent the conflict: - **Use the destination hold** – Use the hold defined on the box to hold the box and all of the contained folders. - **Use the hold with longer duration** – Compare the hold duration time and use the longest one to hold the box and all of the contained folders.
