The Event Configuration - Events|Batch Update|Basic page allows you to add, remove and update the basic information for any set of events, including events from multiple series and multiple venues.
To update the basic information for a batch of events:
1.Open Event Configuration from the Desktop.
2.Select the Events tab.
The Events|Search page appears.
3.Search for the events that you want to work with.
4.Select the check boxes next to all of the events that you want to update.
5.The events must appear on the same page of search results. If they do not, refine your search so that they do.
6.Click 'Batch Update'.
The Events|Batch Update|Basic page appears.
7.Select the field(s) that you want to update from the 'Available' field.
|
Information The field labels on the Event|Batch Update|Basic page are managed independently from the field labels on the main event pages. To keep the labels synchronized, any label changes made for the Event|Basic page in the Registry - Registry::EN::Business Objects::TSperformanceBO node should also be made in the Event Basic Primitives list. |
|
Information If one of the fields you are updating is bound to a list that list must be bound to the Update Multiple Events script's corresponding execution field. |
|
Hint If you want to update the 'Filter Parent' and 'Filter Child' setting, run the batch update twice. First updating the parent filter then the child filter. |
8.Click '>>'.
The selected fields are moved to the 'Update' field.
9.Click 'Continue'.
If the selected field can only contain one value, it will appear in the single-value fields section.
If the selected field can contain multiple values, it will appear in the multi-value fields section.

Depending on the field, the inputs might be different (text fields, dropdowns, Find dialog boxes).
For more information about specific fields/inputs, refer to the Events|Basic page.
The new values always overwrite the previously existing values.
If the field is left blank, any existing values in that field for the set of events will be removed.
11.Multi-Value Fields:
a.Enter/select the new value for each field.
Depending on the field, the inputs might be different (multi-select fields and multiple entry fields).

b.Select the action that you want to complete:
▪Add: The values are added to the values that already exist in the field.
▪Remove: The values are removed from the field.
▪Replace: The values overwrite all existing values in the field.
12.Click 'Update Events'.
A window prompts you to confirm the number of events that will be updated.

When the AVScheduler runs (every minute, by default) a Data Management job will be executed using the Update Multiple Events script and script definition, updating the group of events.
