Mig Batch

Hi Experts

i have started migration on onprem mailboxes to cloud with option to manually complete this migration batch. In this migration batch i have 300 users. all these mailboxes are synced to cloud.
Now i have a requirement to complete the migration for  only 5 users. since these users are part of the migration batch of 300 users. i have used the below syntax and completed migrating 5 users to cloud. experts please validate is the below syntax correct way to migrate.

Set-MoveRequest -Identity user1@contoso.com -CompleteAfter 1

5 users are in cloud, but i can see this 5 users in migration batch with synced status, do i need to remove these users from the migration batch. if so please help me with powershell syntax to remove these users from batch.

    Roger Roger  Once you initiate -Completeafter meaning the Mailbox is Provisioned in Cloud and Local On-Premise Mailbox would be Disabled, and enabled as RemoteMailUser (RemoteMailbox) and corresponding Cloud Azure AD Account (AAD User) is enabled for Logon. Assign necessary License and apply Litigation/Retention Hold (for safety purpose ensuring no data loss - if you come across any need for Batch deletion itself). You should be good to go.

    Do not Remove the Batch until you are absolutely sure to do so !!
