Guidelines for Moving and Copying All Types of Elements
*You must have Read access to the elements you are moving or copying and Write access to the packages, folders, or servers to where you want to move/copy them. For more information about Write access and ACLs assigned to elements, see Assigning and Managing Permissions for Elements.
*When you move or copy an element, Designer automatically changes the element’s fully qualified name to reflect its new location.
*You cannot move an element to a location that already contains an element with the same name. If you copy the element, however, Designer copies the element and appends a number to the end of the name of the copied element.
*You cannot move multiple elements with the same name to a single location.
*When you copy multiple elements to another location on the same server and the elements contain references to each other, Designer updates the references if you have selected Update local references when pasting multiple elements preference. For example, if you copy a folder that contains two services and one of the services invokes the other, Designer will update the reference to the invoked service.
