Adding Optional Fields to Existing Files

[rdingman]

When optional fields are created, you can set the defaults to add it automatically to new items. I want to add optional fields to existing items without doing it manually. Can I export the item master, add the optional fields and import back into Accpac? Does the sort order of the input file matter?

My company is running version 5.3 on DB2

Yes.
Yes, the Optional Fields section needs to be sorted in the same order and the main customer section, i.e, IDCUST order.
