The type of assignent that you want to change.
Mass Change Item Assignments (tcibd0204m000)Use this session to define or change assignments for a large number of items at once. For example, you can reassign a range of items from buyer Clarke to buyer Frydman, or you can assign all the items that are not assigned to a buyer to buyer Frydman. For ranges of item groups and items you can change these assignments: Specifying the item selection LN changes the assignments for the items that answer all the selection criteria. For example, if you select to change the buyer, LN changes the buyer assignment for the items that meet all of these criteria:
Items in the selection range that do not have the buyer, planner, shop floor planner, or routing group assignment specified in the Source field remain unchanged. This also applies if you leave the Source field blank. In other words, if you want to assign all the unassigned items to a buyer or planner by leaving the Source field blank, all the items in the selected item range that are already assigned to a buyer or planner remain unchanged. Updating the tables LN always updates a number of specific tables for each type of assignment change. You can select additional tables that LN must also update in the Update Options area, or you can select the Update All Records check box to update all the additional tables. See Mass change of item assignments for a list of the tables that must be changed and that can optionally be changed for each type of assignment change. To make the changes:
