Reorganize Structure Utility

The Reorganize Structure utility allows you to move a chapter, subject, or topic from one location in a CA IDMS SASO document to another.

Whenever a move takes place, an automatic renumbering of the effected numeric structures takes place. For more information on structure renumbering, see Operations.

The Reorganize Structure screen is displayed by entering option 3 at the Utilities Menu.

The object of the move (the chapter, subject, or topic to be moved) is specified in the first set of reference identifiers on the screen. The destination of the move (where the object is to be moved) is specified in the second set of reference identifiers on the screen.

You must determine where to relocate a structure in a document using the relative position option. The BEFORE option places the object structure immediately before a specified structure. The AFTER option places the object structure immediately after a specified structure.

Relocation structure references must parallel the object structure references. For example, if a chapter ID is entered in the object field, then only a chapter ID can be entered in the relocation field. If chapter, subject, and topic IDs are entered, then chapter, subject, and topic IDs must be entered in relocation fields.
