Run Automations in Bulk for Companies and Custom Objects

SMBcrm now lets users trigger workflows for multiple Company or Custom Object records directly from the list view.

What changed

From a Companies or Custom Object list view, you can select multiple records and run a chosen automation without updating each record individually. After confirming the action, results can be monitored in Bulk Actions, including record-level results.

Why it matters

This helps when an automation needs to run for records that already exist instead of waiting for a future workflow trigger. Example uses include:

  • Running onboarding or follow-up workflows for Companies
  • Triggering renewal automation for Policies or Subscriptions
  • Processing imported Custom Object records
  • Running one-time operational workflows on selected records

How to use it

  1. Open Companies or a Custom Object.
  2. Select the records you want to process.
  3. Click Trigger Automation.
  4. Select the workflow.
  5. Confirm the action.

Monitor progress and review results from Bulk Actions.
