# Bulk Editing Auctions

Bulk editing lets you modify settings for multiple auctions at once.

***

## Accessing Bulk Edit

* From an **Auction Event** page — edit all listings in the event by pressing the **Edit Listings** button.
* From the **Auctions list** — select multiple auctions and choose the **Bulk Edit** option.

***

## How It Works

1. Open the bulk edit view (up to 50 auctions per page).
2. Modify the settings you want to change for each row.
3. Click **Save** to apply all changes. Valid rows are saved even if other rows have errors.

## Editable Fields

| Field                         | Description                               |
| ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| Start Price ($)               | Starting bid price (required)             |
| Reserve Price ($)             | Minimum price for the item to sell        |
| Bid Increment ($)             | Fixed dollar amount increment             |
| Bid Increment %               | Percentage-based increment                |
| Enable Soft Close             | Enable or disable soft close              |
| Soft Close From (seconds)     | Seconds before end to activate soft close |
| Soft Close Duration (seconds) | Seconds to extend per bid                 |
| Allow Proxy Bids              | Enable or disable proxy bidding           |

> Bulk editing is limited to scheduled auctions and listings that have not yet received bids. For large batches, consider [CSV Import & Export](/auctions/csv-import-export-guide.md) instead.

## Reordering Listings in an Event

When you open an **Auction Event** in bulk edit, each row has a drag handle on its left, alongside a read-only **End Time** column. Drag a listing up or down to change its position in the event.

The new order is applied when you click **Save**, along with any other edits. See [Auction Events](/auctions/auction-events.md#reordering-lots) for how the order affects closing times.
