The Component View Mover can be used to move parts in bulk to a different Component View of the same table. Once you create a Component View, you can move selected parts from an originating table to the new component view.

Note: Users who are granted the role to perform Bulk Operations (Admin > User Roles & Permissions > Roles tab) have permission to move components in bulk.

To begin, create a .CSV file that includes the parts that you want to move. You can do this by exporting search results.

1.Open the exported .CSV file. Add or modify a column to contain the name of the Component View for the parts you want to move. Save your .CSV file.

2.Click Admin > Bulk Operations > Component View Mover to access the Component View Mover tool.

3.Click Choose File, browse to the saved .CSV file you created, then click Upload.
