Distribution Categories - Multiple Documents Selection

Dear team,

One year ago Bruno Quadros Rodrigues added a very nice post about distribution categories and how to improve it.

https://support.webmanuals.aero/hc/en-us/community/posts/9237859888157-Update-distribution-categories-from-outside-document-settings 

Where you able to do anything about it?

In order to prevent loads of work for the admin, when having to move big amounts of documents from category A to category B, it would be perfect, if there would be a function that allows the admin to select multiple documents and change the distribution categories for all of them at the same time.

We all know that there is a safety issue involved in this case, because no document cannot be without a category. But the safety can be kept, if the function allows the user to only select new categories and deselect the category, from where they need to be moved from. All other categories that one or more of the selected documents is in, will not be effected from this. 

Best Regards,

Matthias Lösch

  • Hello Matthias Loesch,

    I have found an already existing improvement that has been in our system for quite some time. I have asked the development and product team to reconsider this improvement as more and more users are asking for it.

    The code is MANUALS-2655.

    Thank you for being so helpful!

  • Absolutely Matthias Loesch, ! This would save a lot of time when you need to move documents.

    Virginie Bracq happy to hear you are reconsidering this.

  • I got stuck having to do this the other day...I had over 40 documents that needed to be shifted from one category into another and had to do it one by one. What a time saver it would be if I could have selected them all together and moved as one.
