Answer a question on many inspection assets at once
When a report has many assets and you want to give a lot of them the same answer - a monthly check where only one field changes, or setting requires service to No across hundreds of devices - you can answer them in bulk instead of opening each one.
Click Select (by the asset filters) to turn on checkboxes and pick the assets (Select All is there too), then on the selection bar open More and choose Answer; a modal lists the report's questions.
Fill in only the ones you want to apply and leave the rest blank - blank questions are skipped, so existing answers stay - then Apply to the selected assets writes those answers to every one you picked, warning first if it would overwrite answers some already have.
This is different from Pass: bulk Pass marks the report definition's pass fields as passed, while bulk Answer lets you choose which questions to set and what to set them to.
Where to find it: On the open report's asset list - Select, then More on the selection bar, then Answer
