I've never sealed up a split, or moved them more than a few feet unless they where going to live somewhere else.
I know forage aged bees will fly back, so I give an extra frame or two of shook bees to the split and check back in a couple of days. I also make the entrance pretty small until they have numbers enough to protect what they have though.
You can move whole thing and do a fly-back split as well
