Is it possible to do a bulk update of a "Option Set" (Picklist) for a custom field?

    Hi Steven,

    I assume you are talking about assigning the option from the custom field?

    If so.. 

    If you have included the custom field in a data entity, you can open the specific data entity via the excel workbook designer (with the new field).

    In my example, I have a radio button for maternity leave on the worker:

    Via the add-in I can do a mass update:

    This should work the same for the picklist.

    Hi Erik

    What I was trying to achieve was to update the Picklist values in bulk. We have a number of picklist fields with over 100 different values.

    Thanks

    Steve
