Use this tool at your own risk. It will update metadata about the columns in your table outside of what is actually displayed on the import template. For example, if you try to edit the description of a decimal field, it will update the description, but it will also change the settings of the decimal field to have an allowable value between 0 and 100, with 1 decimal place of precision. Min value, max value, and precision are not on the import template, yet they are being updated. For all I know, this could have been changing the metadata of other column types as well. When I look at the issues, this has apparently been happening for years, but it hasn't been fixed. This tool should be removed from XRMToolbox.

This is an issue that has been present for quite some time. I will fix this in the new version.

Somehow my table metadata corrupted, and MS suggested to create new environment. This tool helped in creating columns from one environment to other without solution import.
Lee Forte () - version 1.2021.3.1
Would love to try out this plugin again, but every time I install it it throws and error and cause XRM Toolbox to fail to load. I keep having to delete it from the tools in order for XRM Toolbox to load. Would be great to have it fixed and working. I have used it in the past and it was very good.

Can't launch XRMtoolbox with this tool installed. Been like this for months.
Dan McKenzie () - version 1.2021.3.1
Very handy tool for bulk changes a must have from the toolkit.
Linn Zaw Win () - version 1.2019.5.1
This tool is good only for the creation of simple columns quickly because there is no option to set the data type-specific properties. The new data types (Customer, Choices, File) are not supported and there has been no update for a while. Lack of documentation and hard to guess the options available to enter in the free text cells and it would be great to have them as drop-down cells.

Be very leery of this plugin it will change properties of your attributes you are not wanting updated. See bug #23 on the project home page.

Good plugin. But i have an error when create multiple fields same LookupAttribute Target (duplicate relationship name)
Error : NavigationPropertyName .... is not unique.
Nishant Rana () - version 1.2018.3.1
The tool is awesome. Make it very easy to create attributes.
Few feedback - that it creates the field with default size as 0-100 for single line of text, 0-1000 for Currency, instead let it be created with default value or an option to define that, while creating, would be great.

Angel Rodriguez () - version 1.2018.1.1
Great Plugin, make the work easier! I used it to add the same attribute to many entities. Just at the first time was scary, because the action was set to delete, even though Delete was not checked in Settings.
Ed Biggs () - version 1.2018.1.1
Excellent. It really is one of those must-have tools! Possible bug - can't update the attribute descriptions for contacts or accounts!
