Quick Issue Add is built for the moment when you know what title you want to add and you want to get the books into your collection without bouncing through several pages. You search for the title, choose the issues, set the key copy details, choose where they belong, and add them.

It is especially useful for adding a handful of books or a run of issues. If you are importing a large spreadsheet or a big structured list, Bulk Upload may still be the better tool.

The Quick Issue Add button appears on the dashboard, but saving issues to a collection requires a Silver-level subscription or above. If your account does not have collection-management access, the modal will explain that a Silver-level subscription or above is required to save issues.

1. Sign in to Overstreet Access.
2. Open the dashboard.
3. Find the Quick Actions section.
4. Click Quick Issue Add.

A modal opens with the heading Add Issues to a Collection. From there, you can start searching for the title you want.

Start by searching for the title or volume name. Results appear as a cover grid, so you can use the cover, title name, start year, and issue count to choose the right title.

If you do not see what you expect, try a different spelling, check the item type or date filters, or use a broader search term.

When you click a title, Quick Issue Add shows a Selected Title panel with details such as the cover, name, year, issue count, publisher, and type. If it is not the right title, use Change to go back and search again.

After you select a title, the issue list loads. Each issue row can include a checkbox, cover thumbnail, issue number, issue name, variant details, and helpful badges such as already in collection, on want list, or key issue.

Check the issues you want to add. You can also use Select all for the current page of results, but review the list before moving on.

Issue Range is the new power feature inside Quick Issue Add. It helps you narrow a long issue list before selecting books. The range does not automatically add anything. It filters the list, then you choose what to add.

Where to find it
Once a title is selected, look for the Issue Range field. Type your range, click Apply, and the issue list will update. Use Clear to remove the range and return to regular browsing.

How variants work
The + symbol matters. A range like 1-5 focuses on standard covers. A range like 1-5+ includes variants in that span. If you are not using Issue Range, the Show Variants toggle controls whether variants appear while browsing.

What Issue Range does not do

• It does not auto-check issues.
• It does not add issues by itself.
• It does not prevent duplicates.
• It does not search across multiple titles at once.
• Select all only applies to the current page of results.

If a range returns no results, the list will appear empty. That usually means the syntax did not match issue numbers for that title, or the issue labels are formatted differently than expected.

Every checked issue needs a grade before you can continue. If you are adding several issues with the same grade, use the bulk grade control to apply it more quickly.

You can also set optional details for selected rows, including quantity, signed information, and certified information. Signed books are treated as individual copies, so quantity is forced to one for a signed row.

• Grade is required for checked issues.
• Quantity can create more than one copy of the same issue.
• Signed and certified details can be set per issue.
• Bulk controls can apply shared values to rows on the current page.

After selecting issues and copy details, click Select Issues. A second step opens where you choose the destination collection and box.

If you have saved defaults, Quick Issue Add can preselect your default collection and box when they are still valid. You can also create a new collection or box from this step if needed.

All issues in one add operation go to the same collection and box, so make sure the destination is correct before adding.

You have two save options:

• Add Issues adds the selected issues, closes the modal, and refreshes dashboard data.
• Add Issues & Search Another Volume adds the selected issues, keeps the modal open, and resets the workflow so you can search for another title.

Use Add Issues & Search Another Volume when you are cataloging several series in one sitting.

Quick Issue Add is best when you want to search interactively, review covers and issue details, and add a selected group of books. Bulk Upload is better when you already have a larger structured list or spreadsheet of comics to import.

A simple rule of thumb: use Quick Issue Add when you are working title by title; use Bulk Upload when you are working from a file.
