Using Group Edit to Correct Multiple Errors

You can use group edit to apply the same change to a selected group of errors.

In most cases, it is preferable to edit the source data (for example, the item master) used to generate the batch file that you loaded into Catalogue. However, there may be instances where you need to temporarily fix data already pending at OpenText so that the data being sent to your trading partner is not delayed.

Group edit is not intended to be a full-featured edit facility. The full set of edits should be done in your item master. There are several actions that you cannot perform with group edit:

You cannot add an attribute.

You cannot delete an attribute.

The group edit feature has a revert capability that allows you to return an error document, groups of errors (by error type), or specific errors to the values they had when they were previously submitted (you cannot revert a deleted attribute). This capability is useful if you apply changes to a group of errors and do not see the results you expected. See “Reverting Errors� .

If you want to continue with additional edits for the selected group of errors, repeat Step 4.
