Cautions and Restrictions
Note
When you move a document/folder, the properties and memos are set as follows.
[Date Created], [Date Modified]:
Set to the date when the document/folder is moved. However, if another document with the same name already exists at the destination and it is overwritten, [Date Created] will retain the date set for the overwritten document. In addition, depending on the libraries at the destination and source, the date of the document becomes the time when it was moved.
[Name], [Type], [Extensions], [Size]:
These properties will be maintained.
Other properties, memos:
Other properties and memos are retained for the following destinations.
Libraries of the same type (except for Document Server Library)
Document Server Library in the same site
In other cases, only items with a matching name and type are retained if [Copy the values of entries with matching property settings] is selected. Memos are also retained if they can be handled by the destination library.
When this is not selected, nothing is retained, including memos.

If you move a document with an attribute such as "Read-only" (Windows), the attribute will be invalidated.
During the process of generating the preview of a document selected in the File List View Pane, you cannot move the document.
When the [Confirm if the document you dragged has been moved or copied] check box is selected, a sub menu prompting you to select either moving or copying is displayed. If you want to move the document, select [Move Here].
[Settings] > [System Settings] > [Browser] > [Edit/Operation Documents] > [Confirm if the document you dragged has been moved or copied]
If a document/folder with the same name exists in the destination and is not overwritten, the moved document/folder is saved with (2), (3), etc. appended at the end of its original name.
If the [Select operation when moving/copying documents/folders of the same name] check box is selected and a document/folder with the same name exists in the destination to move to, a dialog box confirming whether you want to overwrite the file is displayed. If you want to overwrite the file, click [Yes] or [Apply to All] without selecting the [Keep both the current document and the new document] check box.
