Creating and Editing Move Actions

A move action defines work that an employee or craftsperson will have to accomplish as part of a move. You can add actions for individual moves and group moves.

You add actions using the Actions tab of the Move Coordinator / Move Console task.

Additionally, you add actions by selecting the Actions tab from the following legacy Space / Moves / Move Coordinator tasks:

For example, the below image shows the Actions tab for a group move. The tab lists an existing action, and includes the Add Action button so that you can create additional actions for this move. The above views have a similar Actions tab.

Note: It is important to save your changes before adding actions to your move.

Group Moves

If the group move is not yet issued and does not have any actions (and therefore does not display the Actions tab with its Add button), you can add an action by invoking the Add Move Type button and choosing Action from the drop-down menu. This creates an Actions tab, from which you can invoke the Add Action button.

For moves in the Issued status, the Move Console always presents an Actions tab; thus, using the Add Move Type button is not necessary.

Individual Moves

For standalone individual moves, the Move Console always presents an Actions tab, from which you can invoke the Add Action button.

  2. Select the move or project to which you want to add an action.
