Entering a New Business Account
DY 10/26/2008 9:15:01 PM
When I open up Contacts in BCM, I see a custom table that I setup. The first
line of the table is empty but says "click here to add a new business
contact". I like this idea as it is a quick way to add and edit contacts.
However, my question is this. Can someone please tell me how to do this with
my accounts. I need to uncheck all of the "active" checkbox fields of all of
my accounts as the box was checked when I imported these accounts. It would
be a lot easier to do it in the list of accounts rather than opening every
account to uncheck the box. I am new to BCM so please excuse the newbie
question. Thanks in advance for your help.

BCM doesn't have a "bulk edit" feature.

If you know SQL, you can run an update command to set the value Active
for all the records.
