Description

In the new web-based Admin tool it will be critical to be able to move presentation columns from one folder to another.  Currently, moving a presentation column to another presentation folder breaks all reports using the column.  A better way to organize the content is often realized after initial deployment  

Use Case and Business Need

This is needed for self-serve object organization to improve the development and DV experience.

    I would like to see validation and more consistency between the data model RPD and the catalog.
    An additional use case: when we rename presentation folders or columns.

    Hi Nathan, 

    Good point requesting this.  Hope Oracle fixes it soon.

    Meanwhile, if you need a work around to manage the problem, feel free to contact me. I would be happy to share how I deal with it. 

    Stay Safe,

    I'd love to hear any work arounds.  We've done some things in the past that aren't scalable and don't seem to work with DV projects.
