The Batch Traffic module can be used to make changes to multiple location screens all at once. You can change one or any number of fields on the location screen. You can also see a list of marks that match various criteria.

There are two ways to get a list of traffic screens to be displayed and changed.

1. From the Batch Traffic Listing on the homescreen.
2. From the Batch Traffic Edit Module using File > Traffic > Batch Traffic Edit.
