Issue/Introduction

A new system as been created in Endevor. When a user tries to move an element from Test to QA, the Test Elements are getting deleted. The elements at TEST (the source location) need to be retained even after the move. 

How can this be accomplished in batch and foreground?  

 

Environment

Release : ALL

Resolution

When the SCL is created make sure that the OPTION following is coded: 

OPTION BYPASS ELEMENT DELETE 

This tells  Endevor to retain the Element at the source Stage after successfully completing the move

Here is a link to the move SCL

Also on the move panel for foreground moves - Ensure that the DELETE 'FROM' ELEMENT is set to N. 

ACTION OPTIONS:                        
SYNC                    ===> N (Y/N) 
WITH HISTORY            ===> Y (Y/N) 
RETAIN SIGNOUT          ===> N (Y/N) 
SIGNOUT TO              ===>         
ACKNOWLEDGE ELM JUMP    ===> N (Y/N) 
DELETE 'FROM' ELEMENT   ===> Y (Y/N)
