Editing records can be used to:
- Change record’s title;
- Add more detail to the problem description or simply make additional notes and write down comments;
- Change available record’s attributes (except for Project and Area, which are changed with the Move action, and other fields not used in the project to which the record belongs);
- Attach more files to the record.
There are two modes of editing records – single record edit and mass edit.
Procedure – Single Bug
Step one. Open record’s detailed view and press the Edit button.
Step two. Add more details and/or specify a new attachment and/or change the available record attributes.
Step three. If your team uses estimates, enter the current estimate and elapsed time, if applicable.
Step four. Press the Submit button to save your changes.
Procedure – Mass Edit
Step one. Select the bugs you wish to edit from the list and press the Edit button.
Step two. Add more detail and/or specify a new attachment and/or change the available bug attributes (select ‘Leave unchanged’ if no changes for the attribute are required).
Step three. Press the Submit button to save your changes.
Regardless of the mode you are using, the edit action and the related bug attribute changes will be added to each changed record history.
Note: When multiple records are edited, the user will receive an e-mail notification on every record for which the notification option is enabled. To disable multiple e-mails sending, select the Don’t send notification emails check box at the bottom of the Mass Edit form.
