Creating move requests with the foundation UI

A move request can apply to an individual person but can also include the person's assets, such as computer, telephone, and furniture. The move request must include information about the location from which the person is moving and the organization that is responsible for the location. When you submit a move request, a series of automatic and manual activities are initiated that are managed by the move manager.

About this task
