Mass Update to Effort Mode

In order to project incoming work YoY our agency frequently duplicates current projects and reschedules them for the coming year. One of the major hurdles to this is updating the effort mode. Team members frequently change the mode to flexible. When forecasting, we utilize basic. Is there a way to update the effort mode of tasks en masse? Currently we have to adjust task by task, and when there are 100+ tasks per project, that can become excessively tedious. Any tips would be welcome!

Thanks.

Hi Craig McKenzie, thanks for reaching out!

It's not currently possible to mass update effort mode.

Craig McKenzie the response from the Wrike support team was the following:

"We don't have an effort type mass update, but it's possible to copy and paste the effort amount and type at the same time together in Classic Table view by dragging over the value into other tasks." 

I just go back in and do it the old fashioned way, honestly.
