6 | | - first, the user performs a query |
7 | | - on the resulting bug list page, there is a link at the bottom of the page: "Change several bugs at once" |
8 | | - on following that link, the same bug list reappears with a checkbox in front of each bug (this allows the user to hand pick a subset of the bugs to modify). This page also contains all the fields in a bug at the bottom of the page. Each of the fields contains a, "--do_not_change--" value by default. |
9 | | - the user selects the bugs to batch modify |
10 | | - the user modifies the fields needed to be changed in the fields at the bottom of the page |
11 | | - the user clicks "commit" |

14 | | - There's a milestone titled "Next Mainstream Loadbuild". Thus, when a designer closes an issue in the main stream / trunk, they don't need to know the number of the next loadbuild, they simply use the "Next Mainstream Loadbuild". Then, upon the next successful loadbuild, the loadbuild guy can do a batch modification, changing all issues that are closed and have a milestone of "Next Mainstream Loadbuild" to the actual build number. VERY USEFUL. The designers don't need to be intimate with every single possible build number / milestone. |
15 | | - Another scenario: management has decided that all unresolved issues that were targeted to be addressed in load x are now to be targeted for load y. A batch modification would make this job a single task, as opposed to n tasks. |
