 * Hi. How i can make a field like “Approved” field, so i can edit multiple records(
   in my case volunteers) and add or remove certain task on event for them.
 * For example I have group 300 volunteers and I filtered them, and I get a group
   of 130 people, and I must add a certain task to them, and I want to do it with
   just selecting them and with options like “Approve” or “Unapprove” but like “
   Add this task” or “Remove this task”. This will **really save my life**.
 * Greatings, Im in hope that someone could solve my problem 😓

 * If you’ve got some coding skills, it is possible to add a custom action to the
   list. It’s a bit complex, you need to use several filters to put it in place.
   I don’t yet have a tutorial on this, so you’ll be on your own with it for the
   most part. Let me know if you want the details.
 * The fallback method is accessible for non-coders, you export a CSV of the list(
   set it up so you only get the columns you need, including the record ID), open
   the CSV in a spreadsheet app, edit the entries, then re-import. Set up the import
   to update matching records using the record ID.

 * I think would try coding method, because the CSV method is also too slow, in 
   my opinion.
    So yeah please let me know about the details I will be very thankful.
