Posted on by Hein Kruger 666

I want to edit Price List Line (7001) table  in excel. I got it to pass through to my Desktop version on excel using "Edit in Excel" with a custom page however it is (read-only). I Need to make it Editable. 

Hovering over "Source: Lines" I get - 'Read-only data Source"

Hovering over Publish  - The following data source cannot be published: Lines (Read-only) 

My Add-in account and the excel account on the top right is the same.

I am using public cloud.

    Can you elaborate on what this means?  What does it mean to "change the custom page" and how can this be done?

    A custom page is a new page. 

    For my problem I added  Editable = true to the new page properties.

    The Payment journal has an 'Edit in Excel' action. you can use the code from there.
