Adding checkboxes on entities dropdown to facilitate multi selection

[douglasWGL2M]

It would significantly enhance ease of use when adding for example machines to operations, if selecting them individually were not required. An option to select multiple machines using checkboxes would be helpful. This would allow to select multiple machines on an operation at the same time, instead of opening the dropdown with available options every time.

The same feature would also be useful for dissociating or editing multiple machines at once.

Kind regards

Hi @douglasWGL2M ,

Thank you for your idea. If your goal is to associate (or dissociate) multiple machines to multiple operations at the same time via what we call a "bulk action". You can find more information in this help center article. For this purpose, you must go to the operations list and make the assignment.

Does this information help you achieving your goal?

It would be easier to assign multiple sections to a worker by having a multi-select dropdown with checkboxes. 

Kind regards

Hello @douglasWGL2M ,

Thank you for your idea! Do you mean having in the dropdown below a checkbox, so that you can select multiple sections at once, instead of opening the dropdown as many times as the sections you want to associate the worker to? (see example below)

Hi @andrade_david,

Almost. I mean having checkboxes next to the section options in the dropdown list. So that you could select multiple sections at once instead of continuously opening the dropdown to find the next section.

Thank you for the details. I understand the benefits it'd have for Fusion Operations users.

I've marked the idea as Gathering Support so that other users can see it and vote it.
