How can I disable movement in MC

Hi,
I am running a campaign and I want to stop a specific Battalion from moving.
I can access it in MC but how can I stop it from moving?
E.g. I need this unit stationary:
Is it possible?

You can do that as well directly in BMS, if the unit is not hidden by other units.

Pretty much this.
I have moved air defense battalions (Patriots) in 4.35 / 4.36 but not yet in 4.37.
You can leave “Set by HQ” on, but you also then need to set it to defend an objective. In my experience in moving Patriot battalions, not every objective is valid for being defended by a Patriot battalion. I think it might need specific locations for the various elements of the battalion to be positioned.
FYI I used this video as my guide.

Where is “Managed by HQ” Option?
BTW, I see there is a “Moving” option under Advanced, will that do anything?

It isn’t “Managed by HQ” but “Set by HQ” and it is in the top-middle “Orders” section in the screenshot from your opening post.

@Pegasus82 Yes Set by HQ works, my bad, I thought it was only for squadrons…

@janjan , @Pegasus82
I made some test on the different possibilities with Mission Commander.- Advanced Option / Moving Flag has not impact
- If “Set by HQ” is not unchecked, the units can go back in movement, if the HQ decide it needs it somewhere else for example (may be not for a big SAM units)
- The best way remains, to me, to do it directly in BMS
