<p>There is a Transfer button above the tree when editing archival
objects. It provides no way to specify where inside the
destination resource to position the archival object, so you will
then have to edit it again, enable reorder mode, and move it.</p>
<p>I've never used it myself, but I have used the corresponding API
endpoints:<br>

<p>They also move subrecords of the record being moved.<br>
