Hello everyone
I have created schematic and PCB layout in Altium. I have used about total 50 components of different types.I have use one of these components multiple times in the schematic.
Now I want to add some more parameters of all components in the schematic.
Is it possible for me to change the parameters of all components just by only one command ?
Or I need to add parameters of all components one by one
Please give me some idea to solve my problem

the correct way is to add these parameters to the library and update your schematic. but you can also manage components in your schematic through a manager (I don't have altium on this computer I don't know the exact name, but if you can't find it I will check the exact name later)

Sir thanks for your reply
Sir I think you are talking about Parameters manager in tools manager. I do two methods to solve my problem
(1)First of all I went to sch lib and select my all components and goes to parameters manger in tools manager tools . I added the new columns and add the properties of each components. But when I generate BOM, these parameters are not showing in excel sheet.
(2)
I went to properties of components and add part parameters one by one of each components but because of quantity of components it is taking too much time.

Sir I want to know about any short method to enter my required parameters with short time.

If you change parameters in the schematic library, you can update the components in your projects by right clicking the component in the "Sch Library" panel and selecting "Update Schematic Sheets".
It will update all of those components in sheets of open projects.
