We can create a BPA workflow and then use Page Designer to create a command button that calls the BPA.

This currently only works when exactly 1 record is highlighted in a list - if highlight more than one, the button disappears.

It needs to be enhanced to support bulk execution i.e. highlight multiple rows and the BPA will be run individually for each row.

@paul harland Hi Paul, FYI I think I came up with a hacky workaround for this exact problem. I created a SQL package/method that’s sole job is to flip a boolean custom attribute to ON for the record. Then I added a command button to call the package (which can be done in bulk), and a custom event/action to fire the BPA when that attribute changes. The BPA flips the custom attribute back OFF at the end of its execution.
