Move Items Popup

How to move selected worksheet items to another worksheet or into a brand new worksheet.

Work Planner Team12 April 2026

Move to Worksheet is the batch transfer popup for worksheet items that are already on a worksheet. It is useful when work needs splitting, reshaping, or handing over to another worksheet without re-adding every job and quote manually.

Before You Open It

  • Selection required: The popup works on selected worksheet items only.
  • Jobs and quotes together: The header tells you how many selected jobs and quotes are being moved.
  • Mixed-business warning: If the selected worksheet items span more than one business, the popup warns you and asks you to be deliberate about the destination.

Choosing Existing or New

  • Select Existing: Search the incomplete worksheets and choose a different worksheet to move the selected items into.
  • Create New: Create a brand new worksheet and move the selected items into it in one step.

Fields in Create New

  • Business: Appears when the selected items come from multiple businesses. It decides which business owns the new worksheet.
  • Worksheet Name: Defaults to today’s date if you do not type your own name.
  • Assigned Team Member: Use this if the new worksheet should immediately belong to someone specific.

What Happens After Confirm

  • Order carries across: The items are moved into the destination worksheet and added onto that worksheet’s existing item order.
  • Current worksheet updates: The source worksheet refreshes so the moved items disappear from the list you were looking at.
  • Move only, not copy: This popup is transferring the worksheet items, not duplicating them.
