When you are organizing your catalog, you may find you need to make adjustments to its structure. You may need to move an orphan asset to a place in the catalog hierarchy, thereby providing it with a parent, or move an asset currently in the catalog to a different location, which replaces an old parent with a new one. When you move an asset, you have the option to move one asset to a new location and, additionally, to eliminate all links to it. Any assets nested in a moved asset are also moved.

The assets you want to move can exist anywhere in a given view, and you can move as many as you like at a time, as long as they have the same destination. In addition to the assets in a catalog, you may also want to re-arrange media assets and facets. Other types of moving is described in the following sections:

To move items in your catalog:

  1. Locate the assets you want to move using the Search tab or Catalog view, Catalog Orphans view, Facet view or Price Lists views of the Browse tab. See Locating Assets for instructions.

  2. Navigate to the assets you want to move.

  3. Click the checkbox beside each asset you want to move.

  4. Click the Move button and, from the dropdown list that displays, select the appropriate option:

    • Use Move from selected locations to replace the location holding the selected asset with a new location.

    • Use Move from all locations to remove the selected asset from all locations and add it to a new one.

    The Select Destination dialog box opens.

  5. Navigate through the tree to find the asset that will contain the assets being moved. Alternatively, you can locate the destination asset by building a query in the Search tab.

  6. Click the radio button beside the destination asset.

  7. Click OK.

    The Select Destination dialog box closes and the catalog hierarchy displayed in the Catalog view of the Browse tab reflects the new organization. The names of moved assets appear temporarily highlighted in yellow.
