1. Click the (bulk apply) icon at the top right.
On the 'Upload (with Attributes)' screen
On the 'Edit Attributes' screen
The bulk apply options appear under each column header.

In the 'Bulk Apply section:
Go to the required column header
Enter your desired value
Click the
(down arrow) icon next to that column header
