Free text input option for Rep Label in Global representation Changes job
Currently there is no option to remove Rep Label or create a rule that can make it void on the "Global Representation Changes" job. Please provide with Free text input option for Rep Label in Global representation Changes job, like Public Note.
Completed in March release. Added support for setting representation label as:
- Empty
- Constant string
- Bibliographic field (MARC or DC)
- Regular expression on BIB field
Label can either be set manually in representation resource editor or via batch job.

I'd like to add to my previous comment that in this enhancement it will be very useful to add Label (and Public Note) - free text conditions (and an option for empty), in the "Apply only for" section, to avoid updating the wrong representations, especially when there are multiple representations.
Thank you

Thank you for the idea, we will look into it and update on scheduling.
For the meantime, please see https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/blog/batch-updating-alma-representations-with-rest/
Thank you,

It's very important functionality. Please add it as soon as possible, otherwise we actually mislead our customers with incorrect information to need to make manual changes to thousands of records.
Thank you. -

A regex option, just as in the configuration for remote digital repositories would be very helpful!

I have not votes left, but there is definitely a use for making global changes either as free text or with regex when there are hundreds of representations affected by some change.

I think it is a must to add this option just as mentioned above. We now have to change thousands of representation lables and it can't be done. We have misleading information in this label due to some changes, and no way handling it globally.
