Updating Tax Schedule ID with Tax Details - Mass Update

Posted on by 977
We have nearly 40K tax details which need to be associated to one of two tax schedule IDs in our GP 18.5 environment.  All of the tax details are created.  Both of the tax schedule IDs are created.  Is it okay for me to update the TX00102 by inserting the tax detail IDs so they are associated to their corresponding tax schedule ID using SQL?  If yes, are there any post insert steps (e.g., check links) I should perform?

    Updating Tax Schedule ID with Tax Details - Mass Update
    Hi Sandipdjadhav,
     
    Unfortunately, the window's ability to develop a usable MACRO does not appear to be an option because I cannot select a specific tax detail ID, but rather, the MACRO records the line I selected for the insert step, as shown here in the script created in the .mac file:
    # Key 1: 
      MoveTo line 7 browsewin 'Tax_Detail_Scroll' 
      MoveTo field 'Insert Button' 
      ClickHit field 'Insert Button' 
    # Key 1: 
      MoveTo line 13 browsewin 'Tax_Detail_Scroll' 
      MoveTo field 'Insert Button' 
      ClickHit field 'Insert Button' 
    # Key 1: 
      MoveTo line 16 browsewin 'Tax_Detail_Scroll' 
      MoveTo field 'Insert Button' 
      ClickHit field 'Insert Button'
     
    I will try and extract out the data and number the rows and see if I can construct the MACRO in that manner, because SQL updates is not my first choice, for obvious reasons.  Thanks for taking the time to review and post to my question.

    Hello Kristie,
    Can you try Macro with word mail merge? It will be easy and will follow all validation when it done from GP screen.
     
    Let me know how it goes.

    Thanks much
    Sandip
