• Key Concepts: 
  Mass operation is a feature of the SAP Enterprise Portal Knowledge Management and Collaboration (EP-KM) component. It allows users to perform multiple operations on a large number of documents or objects at once. This can be used to quickly and efficiently manage large amounts of data.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use mass operation, users must first select the documents or objects they wish to operate on. This can be done by selecting them individually or by using a search query. Once the documents or objects have been selected, users can then choose from a variety of operations such as copy, move, delete, and more. After the operation has been chosen, users can then execute the operation and the changes will be applied to all selected documents or objects.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using mass operation, it is important to remember that all changes will be applied to all selected documents or objects. Therefore, it is important to double-check that all selected documents or objects are correct before executing the operation. Additionally, it is also important to remember that some operations may not be reversible, so caution should be taken when using mass operation.
  
  Related Information: 
  Mass operation is similar to batch processing in that it allows users to quickly and efficiently manage large amounts of data. However, unlike batch processing, mass operation does not require any programming knowledge and can be used by any user with access to the EP-KM component. Additionally, mass operation can also be used in conjunction with other features of the EP-KM component such as document versioning and workflow management.
