Feature: Clone or Re-run Edits for Simplicity
There may be times you need to make multiple changes to the same set of products and filters. Instead of repeatedly setting up the same product filters to isolate the products, Ablestar Bulk Product Editor allows you to visit your History page to clone, re-run, schedule or save past edits to your favorites for a specific configuration.
There are two methods to re-running an edit:
- Re-run: this allows you to run the exact edit again, without any modifications
- Clone: this method copies the original edit and also allows modifications
Find your Previous Edit
From the app dashboard, click 'History' from the menu options and click on any row you would like to re-run or clone:
Once the edit view appears, you have the option to click the Re-run button to use the exact same edit, or click on the 'More actions' dropdown and then 'Clone' to make changes first:
Choose the option your prefer:
1. Re-run:
If you choose to Re-run the edit, a modal will appear to confirm and then once processed, you will see a preview of all changes that happened, along with the option to Undo quickly if needed.
- Click Re-run edit to confirm and process
- Optional: Rename the edit you just processed by clicking the 'More actions' dropdown and then 'Rename' so you can find it in your history more easily
- Optional: Add to favorite by clicking 'More actions' and then 'Add to favorites'
2. Clone:
Choosing the Clone option will redirect you to the 'Products' view to make modifications as needed:
You might not see any products appear if the field you are searching for is the same field you edited in the original search. For example, if you changed the price on all products matching the < $20 criteria, then when you clone the edit, you will not see any remaining products listed < $20 because the prices were changed.
Click the Edit products button to edit the original configuration further.
Once the 'Configure modifications' view appears, you can click to edit any field. When you field configurations are ready, click the Run edit button (or optionally, click the Schedule edit button to run any time in the future).
