Hi Jayesh, ... and welcome to the mailing list.
I'm trying to envisage your application ... perhaps you could upload screenshots to imgur.com or similar and reference them (note that attachments are NOT allowed to Apache mailing lists). Alternatively and even better, a simple app in github that we can run would illustrate even better. That said, let me just say that bulk actions (still) have a limitation that they must be no-arg actions (with no parameters), so perhaps this is your issue? An alternative design you might want to consider is to use collection parameters [2], [3] You might also want to learn about view models [4]. We tend to use as "manager" objects with a collection (or even several collections) of objects; in general these are much more powerful than bulk actions (bulk actions are not associated with any object, just with the list results of a previous action). So I think you'll find that using view models + collection parameters may give you the tools that you need.
