Other than editing UDRs one at a time, it is also possible to edit a group of UDRs at once. Select the UDRs of interest, or none (this way all UDRs within the file are considered) and select Bulk Edit... from the Edit menu.

The Bulk Editor

Setting	Description
UDR Type	A list from which a UDR type can be selected.
Auto Edit	This mode allows the editing of a bulk of UDRs using matchers and assignments. For further information, see the section below, Bulk Edit - Auto Edit Mode.
Manual APL Edit	Selecting this feature will disable both the Matchers and Assignments, and allow the user to write custom APL code in the APL View that becomes visible below. For further information, see the section below, Bulk Edit - Manual APL Edit.
Activation	This section shows the Target UDR Count and an Edit button. If you click on the Edit button, the Bulk Edit Result dialog will open, if the configuration is valid, showing the type of changes performed.

Bulk Edit - Auto Edit Mode

Setting	Description
Matchers	Defines the UDRs targeted for update. For further information about adding Matchers, see the section below, Add Matcher.
Join Style	Indicates if All or Any will apply to the conditions in the Matchers list
Field	Specifies the fields to examine when defining target UDRs
Matcher Configuration	The expression to apply when matching. Ericsson IOG/IN formats: (see 8. External - Ericsson IOG/IN Records). This special format type is described through the `inw`variant of the `external` block.
Assignments	Defines the changes to be made to the targeted UDRs. For further information about adding Assignments, see the section below, Add Assignment.
Field	Fields to edit
Assignment Configuration	The new value of the field

Add Matcher

A Matcher is added by selecting Add in the Matchers section. The following dialog is displayed:

Add Field Matching dialog

Setting	Description
UDR Field	List of available fields to use as matchers. Depending on the field type, the Matcher Type list updates to display valid choices.
Matcher Type	Defines the check criterion for the field. The content of the list varies depending on the field type. Supported types and some of their possible matchers are: Alphanumeric (string, char) - Contains, Begins With, Matches RegExp etc. Date - Equals, Before, After etc. Numeric - Not Equals, Greater Than, Less Than etc. Bytearray - Is null, Not null, Length equals, Length not equals, Byte at position equals
Parameter	Some field types can consist of several parts. For instance, date types can contain separate values for year, month, and day. Regular numeric/alphanumeric fields will have Value stated.
Is APL	Indicates the possibility to enter variable values for the validation field via the use of APL code in the Value column. This feature makes it possible to refer to other fields within the same UDR (as well as call to APL functions) during processing. In the image below, the `P155_PackageLength` field is of type `int`. If Is APL is disabled, the Matcher Configuration is interpreted as an `int` instead of a function. Add Matcher
Value	The value of the field. By default, a constant is entered. If Is APL is selected, APL syntax can be used to create a variable definition.

Add Assignment

An Assignment is added by selecting Add in the Assignments section. The following dialog is displayed:

Add Field Assignment dialog

Setting	Description
UDR Field	List of available fields for assignment. Depending on the field type, the Assignment Type list will update to display valid choices.
Assignment Type	Defines the changes to be made to the field. The content of the list varies depending on the field type. Supported types and some of their possible assignments: Alphanumeric (string, char) - Assign, Append, Replace, etc. Date - Assign Current Date, Increase/Decrease Year etc. Numeric - Assign, Increase etc. Bytearray - Create, Set at position, Assign, Append, Prepend, Insert, Replace
Parameter	Some field types can consist of several parts. For instance, date types can contain separate values for year, month, and day. Regular numeric/alphanumeric fields will have Value stated. If the field is a bytearray, a hex editor will open when you click in the Value cell where you can enter the bytearray value in hex format.
Is APL	Indicates the possibility to enter variable values for the validation field via the use of APL code in the Value column. This feature makes it possible to refer to other fields within the same UDR (as well as call to APL functions) during processing.
Value	The value of the field. By default, a constant is entered. If Is APL is selected, APL syntax can be used to create a variable definition.

Bulk Edit - Manual APL Edit

This mode allows the user to write custom APL code in the APL View that becomes visible below.

Manual APL edit

Note!

When editing UDRs in manual mode, the changes of the UDRs will not be traceable. All UDRs in the batch will be updated, although their values may not be changed.
