Configuration Step 5: Execute

This last screen in the configuration process allows you to perform a test to check that your configuration settings satisfy all requirements. Once the test has been performed successfully, you can click Execute to proceed with the copy or move.

Check Settings

Click this button to verify that the source and destination lists and fields exist, and that all required fields will be populated. The results of all tests are displayed to the right. If you are copying or moving records to more than one destination, separate results will be displayed for each list or library. If they all say "OK," you can click Execute to go ahead and perform the copy or move.

Execute

When you are ready to perform the copy or move, follow these steps:

1.  Click Execute. A confirmation message is displayed to confirm your choice.

2.  Click OK to proceed. The selected records will be transferred and in a few moments, a few lines of text that summarize the results are displayed. The IDs of the records that were successfully copied or moved are displayed, as are the IDs of any records that failed. If any records were deleted in the destination list or library, the IDs of the deleted records will be listed first, with each ID preceded by a minus sign (-).

Next Time...

You do not need to repeat the five configuration steps the next time you need to copy or move data between the same lists. Depending on what you want to accomplish, it can be as simple as returning to the Execute screen and clicking the Execute button. If you only want to change one or two settings, you can go to the appropriate screens and make the necessary modifications, before skipping ahead to the Execute screen.
