Hi Janice, as Stuart pointed out this function is only available for the jspui. Assuming you use postgres the psql commands for moving an item are:
update item set owning_collection=NewCollectionID where item_id=ItemID; update collection2item set collection_id=NewCollectionID where collection_id=OldCollectionID and item_id=ItemID; Then you got to reindex your DSpace instance. Before changing the db make sure you got a dump.
