Enhancement: bulk changes to TaxonDetermination [edited] #1834

Open tmcelrath opened 4 years ago

tmcelrath commented 4 years ago

Split from #1151

As a curator, I want to find all the collecting events that have "Gloyd" in a verbatim field Can be verbatim collector, verbatim label, or buffered collecting event Once I have a list of those collection objects, I want to change the collecting event of all those specimens to reflect "Leonora K. Gloyd", the Person entity, as Collector.

Similarly, I would want to do this for Geographic areas (search "Piatt" and assign Piatt Co as the Geographic Area) Same with "determinations" (search buffered field for "Gloyd"), update determinedby field to Gloyd.

I think Geographic Area is done, but cannot do partial determinations bulk update, or Collector update.

annot do partial determinations bulk update

Determinations can be done by sending CE to Specimen and working from there?

tmcelrath commented 8 months ago

No, you can do a NEW determination, but you can't bulk MODIFY a determination. E.g. I have 10 objects with a OTU and year but no determiner, and I decide to add a determiner to that determination. Can't currently do that.

Unless there was an update I missed?

mjy commented 8 months ago

You are correct.
