# Checkboxes

Checkboxes are used for selecting specific records or items within the displayed table. This allows you to perform actions or apply changes to multiple items simultaneously. 

This feature streamlines processes across app-modules and enhances the efficiency of managing large datasets or performing repetitive tasks on multiple records at once.

### Record selection

#### Individual record selection

Each row includes a checkbox. Clicking it selects that specific record, enabling you to perform actions on it individually.

#### Multiple record selection

By selecting multiple checkboxes, you can choose several records at once. This is useful for executing bulk actions.

#### Deselection

You can deselect any record by clicking its checkbox again, or deselect all by unchecking the [master checkbox](#master-checkbox).

#### Master checkbox

A master checkbox, placed at the table's header, allows you to select all filtered records, streamlining mass actions.

### Checkboxes states

#### **Checked**

When you select a checkbox, it enters the 'checked' state. This indicates that the specific record associated with that checkbox is selected for any bulk actions you wish to apply.

#### **Unchecked**

The default state of a checkbox when no selection is made. It means that the associated record is not selected for any action.

#### **Indeterminate**

This state is included in the master checkbox. When you select some, but not all, individual checkboxes, the master checkbox shows an indeterminate state (represented by a mixed icon). This indicates that not all, but some, records are selected.
