US Classification:

Abstract:

Methods and systems are described for implementing mass amendments that affect many line items and span many entries in a trade compliance system. Mass amendment functions allow a data field that is repeated in a plurality of records in the trade compliance system to be corrected without redundant data entry. A copy of the records that contain the data field is made. The copy may be exported into an external spreadsheet. A global edit, which makes the same correction in each repetition of the data field, is performed on the copy. The edited copy is uploaded into a database in the trade compliance system, to update the records while still preserving the data that existed in the data field prior to the global edit.
