Modify within selection
The Modify within selection option allows you to change the value of a field for multiple elements at the same time. This option becomes available in the data panel when you select multiple elements in a selection level in a TSI. You can change the values of all fields.
Warning | To use Modify within selection, you must select elements of a single type. If a selection contains elements of different types (for example, a work order and a reservation), Modify within selection is not possible. |
Procedure
1. Select the elements for which you want to change the field value. For example, the selected personnel have moved to another department and therefore you have to change the Department and Work address fields of these persons.
2. On the data panel, click Modify within selection.
3. Select the check box(es) of the field(s) you want to modify and enter the values in the selected fields.
Warning | It is possible to clear a field for multiple-selected elements. If you want to clear a field for multiple-selected elements, you have to select the relevant check box and leave the field empty. All fields whose check boxes are selected and in which no values are entered, will be cleared. |
4. Click OK to proceed.
The Question dialog box appears.
