How to Bulk Edit Items and Folders

Sortly makes it easy to make changes in bulk using our Bulk Edit functionality. Using our Bulk Edit feature, you can mass edit details including name, price, quantity, tags, notes, or any custom fields. You also can edit multiple fields across multiple items if needed!

**Please note that this functionality is only available on the Desktop version of Sortly.
