    Update - It's been broken for me and many others since last night. FamilySearch is aware of the problem.

    In the settings for a batch, you can specify what fields the autocomplete, or autofill, feature applies to.

    Steps

    1. On an open batch, click Batch in the upper left corner.
    2. Click Settings.
    3. Click Auto Complete.
    4. Select the option that you want:
      • Keep project defaults
      • Turn ON for all fields
      • Turn OFF for all fields
    5. Click Apply.
