Mass Ending Assignments
There are a few different ways to end assignments, en masse, depending on your desired end result.
Option 1 - Change Order Status
Use this option if all assignments should be ended as of the day they are being updated in TempWorks and they should all have an assignment status of complete.
From the order details form, change the order status to a status that indicates this order is no longer being serviced (canceled, closed, etc...). 
Upon saving a prompt will appear asking if you would like to close all the associated assignments. Click to select yes and all assignments will be ended as of the date the update is taking place and with a status of complete.
Option 2 - Update Assignments Option
If the assignments end on different days, for different reasons, or if you want to indicate that certain employees should not return, use option 2, actions/update assignments.
From Order Actions:
- Navigate to the order record and a select the Actions menu at the top
- Choose Update Assignments
OR
From Assignment Search Results:
- Run your search for all assignments for a customer, job title, employee name, etc.
- Select all the assignments you want to update
- Hold CTRL on your keyboard to pick and choose
- Hold SHIFT on your keyboard to grab a group
- Right Click and choose Update Assignments
This will open the update assignments form and list everyone who is currently assigned to that order. Here you will have a few different options
Individual Updates:
For each assignment, you can update the ending performance code or assignment status, message action code, add a performance note, set the end date, and/or DNA the employee to that specific customer. 
*Note* If this box is not checked, no changes will be saved for that assignment.
*Note* The customer dna employee is dna'ing the employee from the customer/department only, if the customer has requested the employee never return to the customer, it is recommended that the dna be set at the customer or employee.
Mass Update Options:
