Sometimes you just need to update a little data. Other times, you need to update a lot. When you're updating a lot, Rock’s bulk update tools for steps are here to help. Instead of making the same change one person at a time, you can apply updates to large groups in a single action.

There are two ways to bulk update Steps:

In our Discipleship example we can use the “Pastor” attribute to record which pastor performed the baptisms. This is great if large groups are baptized by different pastors because you only have to select a pastor once for any number of individuals. We’ll cover how to set up attributes like this in the next article.

Show on Bulk
If the Show on Bulk option is not enabled for the attribute, then the attribute will still appear in bulk entry, but it will need to be set for each person individually.
