We are just rolling out our steps program as a church. I did not want to manually update every human that already had a baptism and serving attributes in our database. Thanks to the huge help of Michael Allen, it only took me about 5 minutes to bulk update.

Step 1: Create a Data View with Everyone who has a baptism date person attribute. 


Name: Persons In Baptism Data View Completed 

Description: Anyone in the system that has a baptism date already entered

 Applies To: Person 

Filter Type: Person Fields 

Baptism Date: Is Not Blank 


Step 2: Create or Upload the Workflow Below to update the record 


See the attachment for the workflow below

This is my first recipe, and I am still a novice at best, hope this helps you in some way.
