Applying workflow transitions to multiple documents [fixed title]

Using Mayan EDMS Questions

Hey Everyone,
I’m looking for a way to apply a workflow transaction to multiple documents (as the title suggests).

I have a “Document Lifecycle” workload with 3 stages.

If I go into a single document, then I can go to “Workflows” in the right hand sidebar, then select “Transitions”. This will allow me to run the transition on that document, but I cannot find a way to run the transition on bulk selections.

I’m still getting into Mayan and I’m still fine tuning the metadata etc, so I occasionally need to send existing documents back through the workflow to have then re-processed, in this case the “Redo Metadata” transition.

Is there a way that I can either send an entire Cabinet or Document Type through the entire Workflow or just apply the single transition to them?

Thanks in advance,
John
