You may be unable to move a folder under any of the following conditions:

  • You have insufficient privileges to move the folder.

  • The folder's Folder Type is not movable.

    Contact your system administrator for information about which folders are movable.

  • Another user is currently modifying the folder you want to move.

  • Another user is modifying the contents of the folder you want to move. This condition can prevent you from moving a folder if the original parent folder and the new parent folder are based on the same Folder Type.

  • The new parent folder doesn't let you add folders due to a configuration setting.

    Some parent folders may only let you add folders of specific Folder Types, and others may prevent you from adding any child folders.

  • The new parent folder contains a matching folder.

    If the folder being moved will have the same Keyword Values and Folder Type as another folder within the new parent, you cannot move the folder to that parent. This restriction prevents the creation of duplicate folders. OnBase takes into account whether Keyword Values will be updated on the moved folder before restricting the move.

Note:

When you move a folder that resides in a parent folder for folder notes, any bookmarks referencing the moved folder are broken. The bookmark remains in the original parent folder, but clicking the bookmark's Go to Page button results in an error stating that the referenced item could not be found. If you move a parent folder for folder notes, then all folder notes remain intact and are moved with the parent.

Folders can be moved only in the OnBase Client. You cannot move folders in the OnBase Web Client or Unity Client.
