Bulk Editor
Purpose of the plugin
The Bulk Editor is an Excel-like tool for maintaining mass data in the OMN PIM system easily, quickly and clearly. The Bulk Editor offers many useful features, such as automatic inheritance of values to child objects, separate maintenance of language-dependent attributes per language or easy copying of values to child objects. In addition, it offers the possibility to select two different views to edit the data either merged or separated. It is also possible, for example, to use "Cut/Copy and Paste" to exchange data with external applications (e.g. Excel). Here, a validation of the data types takes place in the Bulk Editor, so that, for example, no texts can be copied into number fields.
