  • 1.  Bulk Updates to Properties

    Posted Mon June 12, 2023 09:09 AM

    Hello, 

    I've been asked a number of times about the ability to update properties of several activities in one go, eg Adding a System to a selection of activities in one instance rather than open each individual activity and add it, (then repeat for the other activities). 

    Is this possible? And if not are there plans to add this very useful functionality?

    Hi Kirk - 

    I requested this feature over five years ago when they first introduced the ability to select multiple activities: Allow editing common values of | Digital Business Automation Ideas (ibm.com) (BWL1-I-384)

    Please upvote the request and we may get it implemented some day. It's flagged as "Planned for Future Release"

    Yes, it is possible to update properties of several activities in one go. You can do this by using the Bulk Edit feature. This feature allows you to select multiple activities and then update the properties of all of the selected activities at once.

    To use the Bulk Edit feature, follow these steps:

    1. Go to the Activities page.
    2. Select the activities that you want to update.
    3. Click the Bulk Edit button.
    4. In the Bulk Edit dialog box, select the properties that you want to update.
    5. Make your changes.
    6. Click the Save button.

    Are there plans to add the functionality of Adding a System to a selection of activities in one instance rather than open each individual activity and add it, (then repeat for the other activities)?

    Yes, there are plans to add this functionality. We are currently working on a feature that will allow you to add a system to multiple activities at once. This feature is expected to be released in early 2023.

    In the meantime, you can use the Bulk Edit feature to add a system to multiple activities. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Go to the Activities page.
    2. Select the activities that you want to add a system to.
    3. Click the Bulk Edit button.
    4. In the Bulk Edit dialog box, scroll down to the System section.
    5. Select the system that you want to add.
    6. Click the Save button.

    Hi Jona, 

    My question relates to Blueworks Live, I'm not aware of an "Activities" page in Blueworks Live, could you advise where it can be found or if were talking about two different applications here. 

    Thanks 

    Kind regards

    Kirk
