Moving models between groups in ARIS

Hello everyone

I have this small problem in ARIS when I try to move a model from Group A to Group B, for example. The objects within the model are always associated with Group A. That’s means if I move the model to Group B, and delete Group A, all the objects within our model are deleted accordingly.

Thanks in advance,

Talal

Talal,

you can use ARIS Explorer functionality to archive goal of moving model with objects.

Start context menue on model by rigth clicking on model and choose 'Cut'.
On the target group start context menue in same way and choose 'Paste as' -> 'Model with objects'.

After moving you can check that objects has been moved as well while enabling object view in explorer tree.

You can use this functionality for multi model selection as well within Explorer module.

Best regards,

Patrick

You can also use another nice functionality that I haven't seen in another application (yet): right-click-drag-and-drop. Grab a model and move it while clicking the right mouse button, this evokes a pop-up on release that has multiple options - choose "Move with objects".
