Completing and Closing a Move (Legacy)

After the action items for a move have been completed, you can use the Complete form to complete the move by changing the status of actions and moves. You then have the option to close the move.

Note: Beginning with Archibus V.24.1, the tasks for completing moves were removed, as the Move Console provides the same functionality from a consolidated console that enables you to work with both individual and group moves. See Legacy Move Coordinator Tasks. This help topic is for those sites who prefer to work with the legacy tasks. For information on completing moves with the Move Console, see Complete and Close Move Orders (Move Console).

Completing an Individual Move

For an individual move, after changing the status of the move's action items to Completed and Verified, you complete a move by changing the Move Status to Completed-Verified. After you have completed the move, you can close the move.

Completing a Group Move

For a group move, to complete a move you must first change the status of the project's actions to Completed and Verified. You then change the status of each of the move items within the project to Completed-Verified. When all the group move's actions and move items are completed, you can close the move.

Closing a Move

After using a Complete Move form to change an individual move's or group move's status to Completed-Verified, you can save your changes and leave the move open. Or, if the move has a status of Completed-Verified, you can close the move, which changes the move's status to Closed. Move statistic reports are generated only for moves that have the status Closed.

If you choose to close the move, email notifications will be sent to the move requestor, department contact, move coordinator (individual move), and project manager (group move).

When you close an individual or group move, the system updates the following with the new locations:
