We are changing our HR Process Level and Department structure so I need to inactivate hundreds of HR02 departments.  I've tried creating an add-in to do this but I don't get any results.  No changes are made and no errors display in my spreadsheet. 

There must be some hidden field or code I need to pass to make the current record in my spreadsheet the current record in the form, but I don't know what field/s or codes to use. 

Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks

f2_DPT-COMPANY
f5_PT-DPT-PROCESS-LEVEL
f6_PT-DPT-DEPARTMENT
f7:0_LINE-FC1
f8:0_DPT-PROCESS-LEVEL1
f9:0_DPT-DEPARTMENT1
f11:0_DPT-ACTIVE-FLAG1
(H)_f4_PT-XMIT-ST-CHG

f2, f5 and f6 are the ones that should bring your current line to the "top" on the form f7 - f11 are the fields you would fill in

f4, if I am remembering correctly, you will want to have a 1 in that field because you will get a standard message from Lawson that deactivating a department will take time "Hit OK to continue" and by using the XMIT field you can push past that.

It has been awhile since I did inactivations with an upload but if my memory is correct, this setup should get you what you need.

Perfect!!  The _f4 PT-XMIT-ST-CHG set to 1 did the trick.  Thank you so much.
