As a repo owner I can move documents from team folders to a repo.  If the wrong repo gets selected, how can it be moved to the correct one?
I tried Suggesting Edits, hoping that would allow a different repo to be assigned when requesting a new approval, but its locked to the original repo.

Hi ​@Astrid_G 

Once a document is approved into a repository, Lucid does not currently support moving it directly to another repository.

The practical workaround is to create or use a copy of the document in the appropriate team folder or workspace, then add that version to the correct repository and submit it for approval again if needed.

Suggesting Edits or re-requesting approval will not change the repository because that association is locked after the initial approval

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards

Hi ​@Humas1985 While I appreciate this functionality is not currently supported, are there any plans to include it in the future. It could get very messy trying to clean things up when mistakes are made, which they very likely will be.

Another situation that needs to be considered,  If repositories need to be re-organized, there should be a way to move content from one to another in bulk.  Having to manually move each document with a copy & resubmit process would be awfully tedious.  ie a repo needs splitting into 2 smaller ones.
