Sketch and origin have moved from 0,0,0

I am an intermediate learner (meaning through trial and error I have git to this stage but there are gaps in the basics) and I have made a mistake that I can't undo. I am looking to machine 3 parts that sit on top of each other. They should all have the same origin coordinates of 0,0,0 but for one body the origin has moved to -85.3, -8.5, 0. I not sure how I did this. I have been able to move the body back to where it should be relative to the other parts but the sketches and origin have not moved although when I open the sketch the origin is in the right place. I did create a second body from this component by coping and moving to one side and modifying it  is not related to the other parts. 

 

I have created a new sketch and modified the part in question. 

 

I would like to rectify this but if I can't will it create any other problems later on such as when I am trying to create the tool paths. I suppose I could start from the beginning but I have invested too much time so far and I could make the same mistake.

Hi,

If you say what component, sketch ... is meant, it would be easier to give hints.

The problem component is Intermeddeate Head and all associated sketches except sketch9, which I have done since moving the body. 

 

D-ring template is the art that copied and modified.

When you move a body, the sketches don't move with it.  Use joints to position components instead of using the Move command.

 

Note: Origins in the Design workspace are not relevant in the Manufacturing workspace.  When you create a Setup, set the WCS to the same relative position for all three parts.

 

You may be able to restore the Origins to their original places by stepping back in the Timeline and replacing Moves with Joints.
