Hi,
 
Does anyone know if it is possible to change Location code on Sales/Purchase Line by Edit in Excel?
There are many rows, which is about 3000 lines, that are necessary to update location code in both Sales and Purchase line. So I tried to use Edit in Excel to change the code, but it didn't work.
Please let me know about the following:
1. Can "Edit in Excel" can change the location code on Sales/Purchase Line? 
2. Is there a way to update location code on multiple Sales and Purchase Lines at once?
 
Thank you.
I have the same question (0)

    I also recommend using Configuration Package, which is very simple an fast.
    Hope the following can give you some hints.

    1. Edit in Excel: This feature may not support updating location codes due to field restrictions or validation rules.
    2. Alternative Methods: Configuration Packages, or Power Automate are commonly used approaches to handle large-scale data updates effectively.
