Move Node

Explanation

This activity is used to disconnect a node with reporting entity connections from the node above it, and then connect it to another node via a single structure operation. The node will be moved together with connected reporting entities and sub nodes.

Prerequisites

In order to perform this activity, the status of the consolidation structure should be In Progress.

System Effects

As a result of this activity:

• Disconnect transactions are created for the connection between the moved node and the node to which it previously belonged.
• A new connection is created between the moved node and the new node to which it belongs.
