There are a couple big differences between a merge request and a move request.
Merge Request
- Combines all demographic information (photos, aliases, stated IDs, etc.)
- Only the requester of the merge knows what supervising user is selected when the request is created
- If the wrong supervising user is selected it can create quite a headache to sort out after processing
- New offender ID and case IDs are created
- Possible to search on pre-merge offender and case IDs
- No further action required once merge is processed
Move Case Request
- Moves a single ICOTS case from one offender profile to another
- No demographic information is copied or merged
- Every state involved in the move request knows what supervising user was selected when the request was created
- Case ID does not change
- If one of offenders has no ICOTS cases after the move, the national office will have to delete the record manually
