# Mass edit table

The **Mass edit table** component provides a [tabular interface](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/edit-in-table.html "Edit in table") that lets users update multiple entities at the same time.

> [!important]
> The **Mass edit table** page component supports a maximum of 100 columns, but for performance reasons, try to keep the number of columns below 50. When you manually mass edit assets, conditional members are included in results only when the condition on the mass edit page is met.

To add a **Mass edit table** component:

1. On the menu bar, click **Manage** :mdiCogOutline:.
2. On the **Manage** page, click **Pages**.
3. On the **Pages** page, select the page you want to modify.
4. On the **Layout** tab, [add the Mass-edit table component](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/add,-modify,-or-delete-page-components.md "Add, modify, or delete page components").
5. Click the component to open its details page.
6. In the **Definition** list, select the entity definition to associate with the component.
7. To include thumbnail images of assets in the table, turn on the **Show thumbnail** switch.
8. To let users navigate to the details page from the mass edit table, turn on the **Detail page navigation** switch, click **Add**, select a details page, and then click **OK**.
9. To add a column to the table, in the **COLUMNS** section, click **Add column** and, from the list, select a column.
10. To make the column read-only, click **Settings** :mdiCogOutline: and, in the **Column settings** dialog, turn on the **Read-only** switch and click **Save**.

    > [!tip]
    > This applies to display-only or layout-related members that do not support inline editing, such as those controlling label position, section borders, visual grouping, or rich text formatting.

11. Alternatively, to configure member-specific options, click **Settings** :mdiCogOutline: and, in the **Column settings** dialog, fill in the following fields:

    | Field name | Description |
    | --- | --- |
    | **Read-only** | Makes the column read-only. |
    | **Number of displayed items** | The number of items displayed. If there are more items than the number displayed, an indicator will show how many more are available. For example, if three items are displayed and there are five in total, the indicator shows +2 next to the displayed items. |
    | **Allowed selection level** | For hierarchical relation editors, this determines which levels of the hierarchy users can select a value from. It can be set to one of the following:<br><br><ul><li>**All** - users can select a value from any level of the hierarchy. This is the default behavior.</li><li>**At least second level** - users cannot select a top-level value.</li><li>**Lowest level** - users can only select lowest-tier values that have no children.</li></ul> |
    | **Select all** | Displays a **Select all** button in the [relation editor](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/use-in-relation-editor.html). |
    | **Manual sorting** | Adds the **Drag**:mdiDrag: icon to related items when in *Edit* mode, so you can move items to change the order in which they appear. |
    | **Create entities on the fly** | Adds a **Create new** button to the relation editor modal when a [creation details page](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/set-up-on-the-fly-creation.html) is configured. This lets you create and add a new entity to the relation editor. |
    | **Search configuration** | If a **Search** component configured to use the relation editor exists on the same page, items in the relation editor will be filtered based on the **Search** component settings. |
    | **Filters** | Lets you add [entity detail filters](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/entity-detail-filters.html) to filter content by the entity relation. |

    > [!tip]
    > This applies to members that support inline editing, which includes properties and relations with selectable values, such as dropdowns, Booleans, tags, dates, and single/multi-select taxonomies.

12. To add additional columns, repeat steps 9 to 11.
13. Click **Save**.
