    Uploading to the PA52.5 has posed quite a few problems for me.  It took a lot of work just to get any upload to work, then it took 4 months of Lawson Support help to get the "Warning pay rate out of range" error to go away.

    Here is how to upload pay rate changes to secondary positions using PA52.5 just as easily as we can do primary changes with PA52.1.  Pay rate is usually a great example because of the soft edits to override.

    Here is how I was able to upload to the form.  Initially, I couldn't upload at all, until I found the _f110-PAY-RATE-STAR field.  Yes, I know, its totally random.  But this field needs to contain a single asterisk.  Yes, just a *.

    So then I was able to upload pay rates, but now I was getting "Warning pay rate outside of range" errors that I couldn't fix by using the _f3-XMIT-HREMP-BLOCK like I would have used on PA52.1.

    So after 4 months of typical speedy support from Lawson, I guess the undocumented feature I should have been using was the _f4-XMIT-PAPEP-BLOCK.  It should be a 100000000, which is completely different than the code used to override the same probem in the XMIT-HREMP-BLOCK.  I have no idea what the bits mean in the value, all I know is that code will clear the "Warning pay rate outside of range" error.

    I have attached a sample spreadsheet and an upload wizard file to help us all get rid of this problem for once.
