Hi Tom,
Yes, you can use the batch change function to set Item Specifics within the same Category. If you open the Batch Change and select the Item Specifics tab, it will group all selected items into unique categories and you can set the I.S. for each category by scrolling through the category groups.
As Timothy mentioned in the other post, make sure you click the “Add” button after selecting English in the dropdown. This applies for Item Specifics that can have multiple values.
