    Hi Drawlinson, you should be able to do this by exporting the jobs list to a file, open it in Excel, add a "Y" to the "InactiveJob" field as required, save as a new text file then import the file back to AccountEdge with the option to update the list. 

     

    As with all imports, make a backup before you begin.

     

    When exporting, choose Match all to select all fields. When importing select only the job number and the IsInactive column.

     

    Go to File, Export data, and follow the options there to begin.
