Users with the appropriate capabilities can add content to a hold to freeze them. Holds prevent changes to on hold items.

Note: Adding system files to a hold is not supported and could create errors, this includes data dictionary files.

A hold allows items on hold for a particular reason to be tracked as a set.

Note: This functionality isn’t available if at least one hold hasn’t been set up or you don’t have permission to put content on the existing holds.
  1. Hover over your content in the Document Library and click More and then Add to Hold.

    To add more than one item to a hold at the same time, select each one and click the Selected Items drop down list and then select Add to Hold.

    The Add to Hold screen displays.

  2. Select one or more holds and click OK.

    A message displays confirming the content is on hold, and the content now displays the icon.

    Note: Content remains on hold until it has been removed from all the holds they’re added to.

The content remains in its place in the Document Library. It is also shown in the Holds area of the File Plan explorer panel.

Note: To remove content from a hold hover over it in the File Plan, Document Library or the Holds area and select Remove from Hold. From the Holds area in the File Plan and from the List view in the File Plan you can remove more than one item at a time. You do this by selecting your items and clicking the Selected Items drop down list and then Remove from Hold.
