It can be helpful to make this change in bulk if you have many transactions within a single Batch needing to be changed. Select the option below that aligns with how you added transctions to Breeze to reveal the steps you should take.
Follow these steps to edit your Batch in a bulk format if you manually added giving transactions through the add giving transaction page.
