What is it?

This is the option which allows you to move, copy, delete a file or edit its description and name.
Whether you have the authority to carry out these actions depends on how the Group Administrator has configured the Repository.

 
What's it for?

Use it to move or copy a file to another location in the Repository or to another Repository on the portal, to delete it or to change its description and/or the name it was assigned when it was created.
