I am using GP 2010. In inventory, Inventory Transfer Entry window, I have more than 100 items, which I transfer from one site to other site on daily basis.
I have recorded a macro, and then I play to enter all the entries in one batch.
I have manually entered the (in header of window) batch details and FROM and TO site and while on Items Field, I play the record/play macro.
The macro runs smoothly, but as soon as it gets at the bottom of visible window (Item Transfer Entry) it gives me error "Field on window is inactive or disabled."
If I increase the size of window, it will keep entering till it gets to the bottom and visible lines, and then it will give the same error.
Please see if anyone can help me.

I have the same question (0)HI Adeel,
This is unfortunately one of the limitation of the Macro player/recorder of Dynamics GP... there is no way you can make it scroll down (past the visible lines) if you don't include yourself the movement to scroll with the mouse or the keyboard.
I've ran into this issues many times while trying to check some boxes in a Project Accounting list, without knowing in advance how many lines were available... Since GP opens the window always with the same size and you can't make it remember the last amount of lines to display, you have to start with that number of lines in mind all the time or maximize the size of the windows before you start 'reading' the lines.. The drawback with this option is that the window size & number of line will depend on the physical size of the display where GP is opened... thus if another user is running this macro on a different screen configuration, it may fail for the same reasons..
Tip : insert a 'PgDn' keyboard hit after your last line.. to advance the display by the same amount of lines that are visible in the display.
Hope this helps.
