Edit Tag Formats of Multiple Loads

The tag formats (see Tag Formats) of multiple loads can be changed in a single bulk edit. When the tag format of a load is changed, the tag number of the load will be updated to reflect the new format.

To edit the tag format of multiple loads:

1. Select the items, then click Bulk Update Tag Format in the Actions section of the List Tools - Loads tab.

2. The Load Bulk Update Tag Format window is then displayed.

   

   The window displays the current tag numbers of the loads selected in the Loads list, with their class names (refer to Class Definitions) and tag formats.

3. The required tag format to be applied to all the listed loads is selected from the Tag Format list.

   By default, this list is restricted to the tag formats assigned to the classes of the listed loads. If the listed loads are associated with different classes, only those tag formats common to all those classes are available. Select the required format.

4. If required, the class of the listed loads can be changed. Uncheck the Lock Class checkbox.

5. The Class Name list then becomes available. Select the required class from this list. The Tag Format list will then list the tag formats associated with the selected class. Select the required format.

6. Once the required tag format has been selected, click Next.

7. The window then lists the loads with the "proposed" tag numbers, i.e. the tag numbers of the loads with the selected tag format applied.

   

   The current tag number, and current and proposed classes and tag formats are also displayed.

8. Only those loads with their Select checkboxes checked will have their tag numbers changed. They are checked by default. Uncheck Select checkboxes as required. The Select All checkbox can be used to uncheck (and re-check) all Select checkboxes.

9. When the required loads have been selected, click Next.

10. The following warning message is then displayed, warning that the "new" tag numbers created by this procedure may duplicate those of other loads.

    

11. Click Yes to continue, or No to close the message without continuing.

12. If Yes is clicked, the changes to the tag numbers then take place.

13. A log of the changes is then displayed, listing successful and failed changes to tag numbers.

    

14. Click Close to exit the window.
