Bulk Update Items
Bulk Update Items
Overview
This guide will help you apply one approved field/value change to a reviewed set of items.
Muhasib changes the chosen field across selected items. The operation may not be atomic and can affect pricing, tax, category, stock policy, or transaction selection.
Who can do this
You need access to Item Bulk Update and needed Item Update rights.
Before you start
Back up the database. Define the exact filter, expected item IDs/count, field, new value, and rollback value. Close related forms.
Before saving, check that the correct company is open and that you have permission to complete this task.
Where to find it
Back Office → Items & Advanced Inventory → Item Bulk Update.
Bulk Update Items
Step 1: Filter/select candidate items
Step 2: Export or record selected stable IDs and current values
Step 3: Confirm selected count and company scope
Step 4: Choose one supported field and approved value
Step 5: Preview when available
Step 6: Execute once and preserve the result message
Step 7: Reopen a sample and relevant reports
Check your work
Compare before/after counts and values for every selected ID; check no unselected item changed and test downstream behavior.
Take a moment to check your work before closing the window. This small check can save time later.
If something goes wrong
- Stop if selected count differs from expectation.
- Restore from backup rather than applying an unverified inverse bulk change.
