On the Change Package view, you can move change package entries by dragging them from one Change Package view to another. You can also move change package entries using the Working File Changes view. Select the change package entries you want to move. Select a different change package from the Change Package list and click Move to Change Package  . |
The Move operation may not be committed to the repository because of reasons like broken connectivity with the server or a server crash. Such a partially committed change package is moved to one of the intermediate states, (Move CP Entries Failed) or (Moving CP Entries). The state of the change package is displayed in the title of the Change Package dialog box.
The state of partially committed change package entries is displayed as ‘(Moving From CP)’ <Action> in the source change package, and ‘(Moving To CP)’ <Action> in the target change package; for example, (Moving From CP)Pending Update in the source change package and (Moving To CP)Pending Update in the target change package.
These intermediate states allow you to reattempt the Move operation of the change package entries. You must select the same target change package while reattempting.

All the operations on the change packages having partially moved entries are restricted till the partially moved change package entries are successfully moved.
