- New Table View - New Mass Action to Change Item Type ✍️
Now you can easily change the item type for multiple items all at once! Just check the boxes next to a couple of items in the new Table view, select "Item type," and choose the specific item type you want to switch to.

Those mass actions are great, but in my case I wish we could have a mass action to add a prefix of a suffix. We use blueprints a lot and we can add prefix as we create the projet, but if we want to add after the creation, this is really time consuming.
Totally agree that this would be a huge timesaver for my team.
Thank you both for sharing your suggestion, folks! Just in case you missed this update, it's now possible to add prefixes and suffixes using automation.

Hello Lisa, I am aware of this options and I have tested it in soooo many ways with no avail. Majors issues are: 1. it`s requiring a trigger and because of that we can`t control when we want or not a prefix. 2. The result has to be the same everytime, which is also a major issue for us since we have many projets. I could see this working (and even then), if you would have the option to ask for a "prompt" in the add prefix box. But "All of my current" testers (over 125 individuals) have requested the ability to add "prefix or suffix" in the new table view. Thx.
Hi Lisa. I agree with Claude. This is not very helpful if you want to add different prefixes to different projects. There needs to be an option to add the prefix to all tasks at the project level. Thanks.
Right...this does not save any time, and has no way of having different prefixes for different projects. For example, we often put a document number prefix for our collateral creation, and have many in process at the same time. So, many similar tasks across projects but different prefixes indicate which one you are working on, e.g., B200- or DS1500- etc. What we would want is the ability to add or change a prefix at the project level, without it affecting any other project names.
I understand, folks, just wanted to mention it here in case it can be helpful 🙂 Thank you again for your feedback, it's been passed on to our team.
