    Hi Naveen,

    Do you have more than 2000/3000 fixed assets to import?

    If this is the case then the excel addin is not the right tool.

    Rather use the import / export tool.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Naveen,

    I guess that some setups/configurations are missing.

    Can you please have a look at the following sites that describe the integration and necessary setups.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../integrating-microsoft-dynamics-ax-with-microsoft-office

    A couple of tips and examples can be found here:

    Best regards,

    Im curious, why are you trying to do this via Excel addin and not DIXF/DIEF? 

    Those buttons only become enabled when you unclick the fields button.

    Hi Naveen,

    Did you also looked at the suggestion from Ashwin (Fields control)? Also ensure, you have valid records to publish.

    Hi Naveen,

    The user need to have the new sheet open before the add-ins are enabled.
