Updating Consecutive Issues from Reorts

Some workflows find it useful to be able to edit a number of records in sequence. For example, a user may want to run a report of their open issues, then edit each record in turn, but without needing to return to the report to click on the Edit button for each issue. An alternative is to use the Quickedit feature within the report itself.

To set up this feature, there is a permission key named PR_RESOLUTION.ALLOW_EDIT_NEXT_PREVIOUS. This key is operable when write permission is available for the user’s current role, and the user executes a Quicklist or column report. When the user drills down into any issue with the Edit button on any issue, the edit screen will have two additional buttons on the menu bar, titled Update & Prev and Update & Next. When the user clicks one of these buttons, they will be taken directly to the previous or next issue following a successful update.
