I have two Custom Field in Fixed Asset List Page as Original Cost and Original Amount. I try to update the values using Edit in Excel function. But, BC shows as Error : 'Control 'OrginalAcquisitionAmount' is read-only.
 
How to make these two fields as editable using excel ?
 
I need to post Fixed Asset additions entries. By default I cant find FA Posting Type as addition.
 
Can any one guide me on these two ?

    Hello,
     
    Your custom fields are read-only because they’re not marked editable in your AL code.
     
    In your page extension, set Editable = true; for those fields and republish.
     
    For FA additions, post through FA G/L Journal with FA Posting Type = Acquisition Cost.
