Working with Item List Cards

Bulk change Items from an Item List Card

You may find yourself needing to update several Items on a Card with the same information. Rather than opening and editing each Item one at a time, you can bulk change them directly from the Item List Card.

To bulk change Items, you must have the appropriate permissions to make any given change to each of those Items. If you don't have the right permissions to make the chosen change to one of the selected Items, that Item will not be affected by the bulk change.

View an Item List Card's Impact

If you're interested in the total impact of the Items included on the Item List Card, you can generate an Impact Summary Report exclusively for those Items. To do so, locate the Card with which you want to work, then:

• Click the ellipsis in the top right corner of the Card.

• Click Impact in the resulting drop-down menu and the Report will open.

Search an Item List Card

To search for a particular Item in an Item List Card:

• Hover over the Card and click the magnifying glass icon that appears in its top right corner. The "Search Card" field will appear.

• Enter your search term into this field and hit enter/return or click the magnifying glass icon again to search the list.
• Click the x icon that appears next to the magnifying glass to cancel your search.

Quickly Edit Items on your Card without opening the Item

When you are viewing an Item List Card, you can edit Items from the Card without needing to open the Item. Check out this article for information on how to edit Items in a List.
