**As** a Project Administrator
**I want to** bulk edit work packages and add "Blocked by" relation to multiple work packages at the same time
**so that** I don't have to go into the blocking work package and add multiple relations line by line
**Acceptance criteria**
* In the bulk edit work package screen, add a relations drop down and work package selector

**As** a user editing relationships (e.g., \*precedes/follows, parent-child, related to, blocks/blocked by, duplicates\*)
**I want to** set relationships for multiple work packages at once via Bulk Edit
**so that** I can maintain consistent dependencies across many work packages reducing manual effort and avoid errors in projects.
#### Acceptance criteria
\- The bulk edit dialog contains a dedicated “Relations” section in which relationships for all selected work packages can be added or modified.
\- The following actions are available for relations in the bulk edit dialog:
- Add a new relation (choose relation type + target work package(s)).
- Remove existing relations by relation type and target work package.
\- All standard relation types that are available in single-edit mode are supported (e.g., \*precedes, follows, parent, child, related to, blocks, blocked by, duplicates, duplicated by\*).
#### Technical notes
\- UI: Extend the existing bulk edit dialog with a “Relations” section, analogous to the current single-edit UI (auto-complete for target work packages, selection of relation types).
#### Permissions and visibility considerations
\- **Visible to**:
- Only users with permissions to edit work packages \*\*and\*\* to edit relations in the respective project.
\- **Not visible / not usable when:**
- Users only have read access to work packages.
**Translation considerations**
Key terms in English/German (extend as needed):
\- Bulk edit / Mass editing – Massenbearbeitung
\- Relations / Relationships – Beziehungen
\- Add relation – Beziehung hinzufügen
\- Remove relation – Beziehung entfernen
\- Precedes / Follows – steht vor / steht nach
\- Parent / Child – übergeordnet / untergeordnet
\- Related to – verwandt mit
\- Blocks / Blocked by – blockiert / wird blockiert von
\- Duplicates / Duplicated by – dupliziert / wird dupliziert von
\- Not enough permissions – Keine ausreichenden Berechtigungen
**Out of scope**
\- Introducing new relation types or changing the core logic of existing relation types.
\- Bulk creation or deletion of work packages themselves (only relations are modified via bulk edit).
