Hello, 

Does anyone have a trick for cataloging a large batch of objects without doing it in SQL? Specifically, I have a set of 250 pieces of glassware with the same description. The records were already created before we converted to TMS, so now there are 250 individual object records. Is there a faster way to update all of them then copy/paste for the description, dimensions, materials etc.? 

What is the best solution for this kind of issue moving forward BEFORE the records have each been created in TMS?

Thanks!
