Multi Edit – Add-ins

The Multi Edit command will facilitate the process of editing numerous issues at once. This command comes in quite useful if there is a need to close the status of multiple issues, revise the due dates of all the issues in a project, and other similar scenarios that may arise. 

Follow these steps to edit multiple issues:

1. Hold the Control key (Ctrl) down and select the issues you want to edit. You’ll see a blue check mark in the top left corner of each issue once selected.
2. Click the gear icon in the top right corner.
3. From the drop down click Multi Edit.
4. The Multi Edit dialog box will open. 
5. Specify the conditions you want to edit such as assigned to, the priority, the due date, etc.
6. Click the save button.
   

If a field is left blank the issue will retain its original setting. For example, if 5 issues are being edited simultaneously, and all 5 issues are assigned to different people but the zone and phase need to be changed simply leave all the other fields blank and only edit the zone and phase criteria.
