About the Designer 2.0 Mass Edit Tab

The Designer 2.0 Mass Edit tab has the same functionality as the original 1.0 Mass Edit tab, but it provides a more modern and updated user interface with more streamlined actions. In addition, the 2.0 Mass Edit tab provides:

  • Improved search
  • Full edit capability on a single rule
  • Ability to validate models without having to switch to a different tab
  • Improved rule filtering using the PCM Agent List Rules command

Note:

Mass Edit 2.0 is the default view. If desired, you can temporarily revert to the original Mass Edit 1.0 screens by entering an EPCM_MASSEDIT_UI substitution variable to specify 1.0.

Starting in the July 2026 release (26.07), the original Mass Edit 1.0 screens will no longer be available.

To temporarily revert to the original Designer 1.0 Mass Edit tab:

  1. From the Home page, select Tools, and then Variables.

  2. On the Variables tab, click Substitution Variables, and then click the plus sign to define a new variable.

  3. Leave the Cube field set to All Cubes, and enter the EPCM_MASSEDIT_UI substitution variable for the Mass Edit 1.0 tab as follows:

    Substitution Variable for Mass Edit 2.0

Note:

These substitution variables are applicable to all users (they are not user-level preferences).
