It looks like you have the collection grouped by Status? (In Progress, Done).

If you change the status of an item from In Progress to Done, then it should automatically move to the second group.

You misunderstood the image. Rather than moving to ‘Done’, you are moving to a row in another source.

When you say another source, do you mean another table, or another collection?

Okay.

Sorry I have to say this, but that suggests poor data design.  
Would I be correct in saying that you have one table for In Progress items, and another (almost identical) table for Done items?

If that’s true, I would strongly suggest you consider merging those into a single table, and include a column to indicate the Status of each item. This way you don’t have to move anything, and you will save yourself an awful lot of work in the future.
