Bulk Editing & Downloading Bills

Use Bulk Actions to Edit & Download multiple Transactions at once.

Edit or download many records at once instead of one at a time.

Quick steps

  • Open the status tab you want, such as All, Draft, For approval, or For payment.

  • Narrow the list with filters if you need to, by job, vendor, or cost code.

  • Tick the checkboxes on the rows you want.

  • Open Actions to edit them, or Download to export them.

Bulk actions work on Jobs, Bills, Receipts, Vendors, and Purchase orders.

What you can do on each page

What you see depends on your permissions and on your company's settings, so your list can be shorter than the ones below.

Jobs

On the Active tab you can deactivate jobs. On the Inactive tab you can activate them.
