Select a Decision for a Group of Open Applications

If there are open applications that have been reviewed and a group of them needs to be updated with the same decision, batch edit allows you to add the same decision for all applications in the group. The decision can be a final application status or another status to indicate next steps. For example, you can change the application status to Ready for Review if you decide the applications should go through another review process, or you can change the application status to Waitlist if you decide you want to look at evaluations for other applications before making a final decision. There are two main parts to select a decision for a group of open applications.
