Bulk Edit Task and Follow-up Action Items

✅ Bulk Edit Task and Follow-up Action Items

Our new user interface is much more than a shiny coat of purple paint. As we roll it out to users, you’ll notice small but impactful changes across the web portal. This week we’re highlighting the ability to edit action items (both tasks and follow-ups) in bulk, eliminating the tedious process of editing them one-by-one. To check it out, head to the Action Items tab in the web portal. Select the “Incidents with tasks” check box to select all tasks, or the check box at the top of each incident to select all tasks for a specific incident. You can do so under both the tasks tab (referring to action items to be completed during the incident) and the follow-ups tab (referring to action items to be completed after the incident resolves. The bulk editor allows you to perform any of the following actions:

  • Reassign action items to a different user
  • Mark action items as “open”, “in progress”, “canceled”, or “done”
  • Set or change the priority level
  • Set or change the due date
  • Delete tasks
