How to perform Bulk Set Process in Sales Order
Objective
To quickly define and apply cycle-time rules for multiple items within a Sales Order in a single operation. The Bulk Set Process allows planners to assign machine groups, process steps, and expected cycle times without updating each item individually, ensuring consistent production planning data across the entire order.
Step 1. Open Sales Orders
Go to Orders → Sales Orders.
The Sales Orders list will appear, showing all open, fulfilled, and unfulfilled orders.
Step 2. Open the Required Sales Order
From the list, click on the SO number you want to update.
The Sales Order detail screen opens with tabs like:
Item Details
Material Issue Requests
Work Orders
Traceability
Costing
Dispatch Planning
Packaging
Shipment
Step 3. Open Bulk Set Process
In the Item Details tab, locate the item list.
Click on the Bulk Set Process button.
This opens the bulk update window where you can set cycle-time rules for all items in one go.
Step 4. Set Bulk Cycle-Time Rules
A pop-up titled Set Bulk Cycle Time Rules will appear.
For each item row, fill the following fields:
Machine Group
Item Group Tag
Process
Seconds (cycle time per item)
These values define the expected time per cycle for production planning.
After entering all required rows, click Submit.
Step 5. Confirm Item Settings

The system applies the cycle-time rules to the selected items.
These settings will reflect during planning, work orders, and production monitoring.
Conclusion

Instead of editing each item individually, you can assign machine groups, process steps, and cycle-time seconds in a single action—reducing setup time and ensuring consistent planning data across the entire order.
