About Bulk Update
On the Backlog page, you can update more than item at a time. Updating in bulk is useful for editing a specific attribute across multiple user stories or issues instead of updating each item individually.
For example, use bulk update to assign multiple items to a sprint or release. You can also use it to select an assignee for multiple items at the same time.
When using bulk update, you can:
- Select a maximum of 250 user stories or issues to update at a time.
- Assign an issue to a maximum of ten fix releases and ten affected releases when updating in bulk.
- Select either user stories or issues for bulk update. You cannot combine both types of items.
- Leave an attribute value as blank or as Select a Value to avoid updating the field for all the selected items.
- Select Unselected to change a field value to Unselected for all the selected items. For example, if you select Unselected for the Release attribute, no release is specified for any user stories or issues in the bulk update.
Follow these steps:
- Select Backlog from the Agile Vision Planning menu.
- Select the product name in the Product list for which you want to update user stories or issues.
- Select multiple user stories or issues.
- Right-click the highlighted items and select Bulk Update. You can also click the Bulk Update button.
The bulk update pop-up appears.
- Edit the desired attributes for the selected items and click Save.
The fields for each backlog item display the updated values.
