Multiselection of variants and bulk actions
By using the multi-selection mode, you can speed up review by applying actions to multiple variants at once. This makes it easier to apply tags, assign pathogenicity, and review status without handling each variant individually.
Multi-selection of variants
Hover over a variant to reveal a checkbox at the start of the line;
Selecting a checkbox activates the Multi-select actions bar, replacing the Search bar.
Checkboxes appear for all variants in the current view.
Select variants individually or use the Select all checkbox.
Important: Select all applies only to variants currently displayed on the page, not all variants matching your filters.

Bulk actions:
1. View/ Un-view variants
Change the review status for multiple variants at once:
Select the variants of interest.
In the Multi-select actions bar, click the Viewed icon.
Choose Viewed or Un-viewed.

2. Assign/ Remove tags
Assign or manage tags across multiple variants at once:
Assign tags
Select the variants of interest.
Click the Tag icon in the Multi-select actions bar.
Choose a tag from the dropdown menu.
If a tag is already assign to at least one variant within the selected variants of interest, a confirmation window will appear showing the current assigned tag and the new tag per variants.
When multiple tags per variant are enabled, tags are always added in addition to existing tags. no confirmation window will appear.
All tags assigned to a variant are displayed in the Tag column.
If both user tags and AI tags exist, only user tags appear in the column.

Remove tags
Select the variants of interest.
Click the Tag icon.
Choose one of the following:
Clear – removes user-assigned tags.
Not relevant – removes tags assigned by Emedgene.
3. Assign/ Clear pathogenicity
Set or remove pathogenicity classifications for multiple variants:
Assign pathogenicity
Select the variants of interest.
In the Multi-select actions bar, click the Pathogenicity icon.
Choose a classification (Pathogenic, Likely Pathogenic, VUS, Likely Benign, Benign).

Clear pathogenicity
Select the variants of interest.
In the Multi-select actions bar, click the Pathogenicity icon.
Select Clear to remove the existing classification.

Tips:
Use bulk tagging to ensure consistency across variants that share biological or interpretive context.
Combine tags and pathogenicity assignments in bulk to streamline reporting prep.
For large variant sets, apply filters first to narrow down your view before using multi-selection.
Warnings:
Bulk edits apply immediately to all selected variants. Double-check your selections before applying.
Removing tags or pathogenicity affects all team members working on the case—coordinate with your team to avoid conflicts.
Once a case is finalized, bulk actions are disabled to protect case integrity.
