The Bulk Course Edit screen is used to edit course enrolment details which requires sometimes to be edited in bulk for data entry efficiency. There are two bulk actions involved to complete this workflow, one is to bulk generate the student list, then the Bulk Course Edit screen to edit some course enrolment fields. This knowledge article will provide a workflow for editing/updating students' course enrolment-related information in bulk.

Note

USE CAUTION:

When updating bulk information or enrolling students into units in bulk care must be taken to ensure that only the students who should be updated/enrolled appear in the initial list. Errors from bulk updates are much harder to fix as they need to be manually fixed one at a time as there is not a bulk undo option.

This function should be reserved for higher-level staff or power users who understand the complexities of the system.
