    The best way to do this is probably to set up a new Action process, where the first form contains a selectable paging grid showing a list of the records the user can select from. Upon submitting the form, the process could capture an array of the record primary key ID's selected, and loop over a subprocess (once per ID) where the subprocess takes care of performing the work/update you require.
