# Employee Bulk Edit

Employee Bulk Edit lets you update the same value across multiple employees at one time. This is useful when you need to apply a shared change, such as updating employment status, compensation details, job information, or group assignments for several employees. After you validate and save the update, the change applies directly to all selected employees.

1. Go to **Employees > Employee List > Ellipsis menu > Bulk Edit**. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/88d7ebef-752e-45d9-95e1-ee13bd7279c5/Images/Documentation/image-01FQPKFY.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T12%3A42%3A31Z&se=2026-11-01T13%3A42%3A31Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=0lSOoMrv1y%2FdCDlT0lQ4pyHEXlACtW%2FWJPF0yKuz9Zk%3D)
