+>**Note:**
+- A permission level of `Reporter` or higher is required in order to manage
+issues.
+- A permission level of `Developer` or higher is required in order to manage
+merge requests.
+
+Fields across multiple issues or merge requests can be updated simutaneously by using the bulk edit feature.

+>**Note:**
+- Bulk editing of issues and merge requests is only available at the project level.
+
+To access the feature, navigate to either the issue or merge request list for the project and click 'Edit Issues' or 'Edit Merge Requests'. This will cause a sidebar to be shown on the right-hand side of the screen, where the available, editable fields are displayed. Checkboxes will also appear to the left-hand side of each issue or merge request, ready to be selected.
+
+Once all items have been selected, choose the appropriate fields and their values from the sidebar and click 'Update All' to apply these changes.
