# Moving Services from Inventory
Services can be moved directly from the Inventory to another employee or location.
This is useful when services need to be reassigned, transferred to a different workplace or moved as part of an operational process.
### How service moves work
In the Inventory, select the services you want to move and start the move action.
You can select a single service or multiple services at once. After starting the move action, Equipme opens a dialog where you choose the target for the selected services.
Services can be moved to:
**Employees**\
Use this option when the selected services should be assigned to a specific employee.
**Locations**\
Use this option when the selected services should be moved to a specific location.
The dialog separates these target types into tabs, so you can switch between employees and locations depending on where the selected services should be moved.
### Choosing a target
After selecting the target type, choose the employee or location that should receive the selected services.
The dialog shows available targets in a list. For each target, Equipme checks whether the selected services can be moved there.
This check is shown in the **Availability** column.
### Understanding availability
The Availability column shows how many of the selected services can be moved to a specific target.
For example, if four services are selected, the availability status may show that three out of four services can be moved to a certain employee or location.
This means that one of the selected services cannot be moved to that target.
You can open the availability details to review which services can be moved and which services cannot be moved.
### Why a service may not be movable
A service may not be movable depending on its current status or other conditions that apply to the move.
If a selected service cannot be moved, Equipme shows additional information in the move flow. This helps users understand why the service is blocked instead of only seeing that the action is not possible.
The exact reason depends on the selected service and the target.
### Moving multiple services
The move action can be used for multiple selected services.
When multiple services are selected, Equipme checks the selection before the move is completed. If only some services can be moved, the dialog shows which part of the selection is available for the selected target.
Users can then decide whether to continue with the movable services or adjust the selection first.
### Pre-check for blocked services
Before the target selection is shown, Equipme can indicate if some selected services cannot be moved at all.
This helps users identify blocked services early in the process. If the selection contains services that cannot be moved, users can either continue with the remaining movable services or go back and change the selection.
### What this helps with
Moving services from Inventory helps operations teams manage service assignments from the central inventory view.
The availability check gives users more context before completing the action. This is especially helpful when moving several services at once, because users can see what can be moved, what cannot be moved and where restrictions apply.
### Important to know
Services can be moved to employees or locations.
Availability depends on the selected services, the selected target and the conditions that apply to the move.
If not all selected services can be moved, review the availability details before completing the action.

```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
