Ability to Mass Update or Bulk Update from selected records

Hello SpiceCRM,

User Story  
The user has a series of Leads where the ‘Status’ needs to be updated - the user would like to Select the leads in question, and then ‘Bulk / Mass Update’ but we don’t see this option in any module to bring over to the Leads list view

Please let me know if this is something we need to customize?

Thanks.

Maybe you need to roles and security in the admin → system settings.

User should have mass update access.

Hello RSP,

I am pretty sure that this is a Sugar/SuiteCRM construct to control the mass update via the Role. SpiceCRM’s ACL management and the framework for selecting and bulk updating the selected record doesn’t resemble this older method of configuration.

Thanks for your support regardless.

Okay, I thought spiceCRM has same features. I never able to host spiceCRM and run it.
