The following example every plot will be advanced, such as for a seed bulk.
Open a study measurements observations tab. Select Advance Study from the Actions button dropdown menu > Advance study options.
...
Select which of the study instances (locations in this case) to advance. Continue.
...
Choose a breeding method and Finish. Derivative and maintenance breeding methods are filtered by default since these are the most common for advancements. All plots are selected by default.
...
Review the advanced lines and select Finish.
...
Notice that the pending lines have been automatically named. For example the designation, BMS-1-201808001:yyyymm, is a concatenation of the parent line, BMS-1001, and the year (yyyy) and month (mm) of creation. This is the default naming convention associated with the breeding method, Seed increase bulk. See your system administrator if you would like to change the default naming conventions.

Within Plot Selections
Within plots selections are made based on phenotypic or genotypic criteria. To make within plot selections, the study needs a Selection Variate with selections recorded.
...
Selection and advance anonymous plants within a plot.
From the Actions menu > Advance study options, choose Advance Study. In this example, number of plants selected (NPSEL) is a selection variate. A single plant from each plot with disease resistance (zero or one scores for mosaic virus severity) have been selected for advancement.

With Plant ID
If you need a unique identifier (UID) for individual plant observations, create a plant sub-observation data set (see more in Observations & Sub-Observations). The plant sub-observation UIDs are suitable for barcoding individual plants within a plot. Advance from the plant sub-observation dataset.
