Environment
Release : 19.0
Cause
The FOOTPRINT was lost because an external utility updated the element during the MOVE process.
The BASE and DELTA members should never be altered outside of Endevor.
Resolution
A change to the Element is not possible when they are actioning on an Element. (Elements cannot be changed during the MOVE process)
Use the Search and Replace utility to update the elements first, then execute the MOVE process.
For more information, check the Search and Replace utility.

If you want to reference an element after MOVE from an external program, you can use BSTCOPY within the MOVE processor to output the element to an external data set.
Then, can update that output data set and reference that data set from an external program.
For more information, check the BSTCOPY Utility.
