Customizing a query in Work Item bulk Editing
Hello all,
I'm trying to customize a work item in the UI. I already have the query, then I want change the state of part of the query results work items, then I use the bulk editing feature in RTC, for now everything is OK, then I save the query. After that I load the saved query again, but the attributes that were used to bulk edit the work items were not saved.
Question.
It is possible to save the attributes used to bulk editing the work items in the query?

I'm not totally clear on the steps you followed, but if you go through the steps documented here:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYMRC_5.0.0/com.ibm.team.workitem.doc/topics/t_modifying_multiple_work_items_web.html?lang=en
it should work. If it still doesn't work, double check that you have permissions to modify the attributes you are attempting to update (by trying to open an individual work item and modifying the attribute there instead of in query results).
