Ability to Edit/Modify Publication Patterns
It would be great to be able to edit or modify publication patterns as needed.
Currently, we are only able to modify publication patterns IF no issues have been received. After that, the only way to change a publication pattern is to close the current one and open a new one.
It would save staff time and effort if they could update a current pattern with necessary changes rather than being required to create a new one each time.

I agree, publishers are changing their publication patterns more frequently now. We have hundreds of titles with multiple subscriptions, so wrangling serials is time consuming. It would be so much easier to edit a publication pattern. Being able to bulk edit publication patterns for all associated subscriptions would also be a time saver, as others have commented.

Being able to bulk edit the pattern for all associated subscriptions would be such a time saver (and price changes too).

I feel like since 2019, magazines have been changing publication patterns quite often. It's kind of a nightmare to change the publication patterns right now. It would also be super if you could bulk edit them to do all subscriptions to a particular title at once.
