Bulk Change in Scenario Conditions

The Bulk Change condition allows you to select a set of activities that meet filter criteria and apply a uniform change (e.g. calendar change, duration adjustment) across them. It’s an efficient way to simulate “mass updates” in a scenario.

To create a bulk change condition:

1. Click the Project name from the Project List.
2. Click Modeling from the top menu bar.
3. Click conditions
4. Click + Condition from the top right of the screen and click Bulk Change.
5. Select the schedule to base your condition on and click Next
6. Click + Add New Filter
   1. Pick a parameter (e.g. Activity Name) and set a condition (e.g. Contains “punch”)
   2. Add more filters as needed and click Next
7. Click + Add Change Item
   1. Choose parameter (e.g. Calendar). Choose target value (e.g. 6-day calendar)
   2. Click Next
8. Review list of matching activities
   1. Uncheck any you want to exclude and click Next
9. Enter descriptive name (e.g. “Punch List → 6-day calendar”)
   1. Click Create and Close
      
      

To Create and Apply a Model with Bulk Change:

1. Go to the Project Workspace by clicking the project from the Project List.
2. Click Modeling from the top menu bar.
3. Click + Model from the top right of the screen.
4. Go to Advanced Model 
5. Enter Model Info and click Next
6. Select Schedules and click Next
7. Note: You must select the schedule the Bulk Change was built off of.
8. Conditions: check the Bulk Change rule and click Save / Close
9. Wait for model run and notification
