Many screens offer the Actions menu in addition to the context menu. The Actions menu is a drop-down menu that contains actions that you can perform on one or more objects in the currently displayed list of objects.

The set of actions offered by the Actions menu on a particular screen is usually a subset of the actions offered by the context menu. This is because the actions in the Actions menu can be applied to multiple selected objects, so the set of actions is restricted to just the actions that can be performed on all of the screen's listed objects. In particular, if the screen contains objects of several object types, actions that are relevant for one object type might not be relevant for another object type, so such actions are not offered in the menu.

To use this menu, mark the checkbox for the required objects in the currently displayed list of objects, then open the Actions menu and select the required action. This action will be applied to all of the selected objects.
