Keyboard shortcut for Bulk Changes (reduce number of clicks)

Saad

Hi

I am using Agile boards and I want to reduce the number of clicks needed to complete a bulk transition on multiple cards.

For example Transition multiple issues at once from Status 'X' to Status "Y". If I do a bulk change using right click, there are additional 4-5 clicks needed to fully complete the Bulk change (all the way to the acknowledge button) and my team are very unhappy with that. Would be great if you could reduce the number of clicks somehow for a simple transition for multiple cards

I tried using the keyboard shortcuts, when I select multiple tickets, I normally press "." then "i" . However that only does it for one Issue not the multiple selected.

My team needs to multi card transitions very frequently as our email flow is enormous. 

Can that be developed?

Thanks

Saad

ok so apparently that only works in JIRA cloud and not JIRA Server. How very frustrating!

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWSERVER-9581?_ga=2.120029952.908644644.1549312434-410625077.1543955820

Can we figure another way?
