Moving a file to two different folders Sun Apr 07, 2013 3:02 pm • by cdogg44
I am trying to move one file out of a folder and into two different folders. For some reason it will only move to one of the folders.

Example:

File A is scanned into Catch All Folder. I want Hazel to find File A based on its contents and move to AMEX Statements and Scanned Backups.

It finds the file fine but it moved them all to the Scanned Backups folder with nothing in the AMEX Statements folder.

Ideas?

You basically want to do a move then copy. Note that any actions after a move/copy action operates on the output of that action (the moved or copied file). I suggest giving that a shot.
