    Hi 

    This can be done in two ways by changing the sym field of the relevant tables (pri and imp), either directly in the database or via internal tools (pdm_extract-->update values-->pdm_load) and making some records inactive if you do not want to see them in the list

    Hi Bakhtawar,

    Are you really asking how to update a table/record in the database? Excuse my ignorance or harshness, but is this not supposed to be basic database-101 that can be searched on Google?

    Rather use the OOTB provided utilities. All you'll need to do is the following

    1. Extract the records to a file (pdm_extract),
    2. Make a copy of the file for backup
    3. Modify the records in the file
    4. Load back the records (pdm_load/pdm_userload)

    You'll find some examples of how to use these utilities in the Tech Docs:

    export Impact via pdm_extract utility and see the format and load a new file with new entry using -i argument.

    for priority, ill advise to use whereclause to achieve your desire list.

    Wish you best with the support case.
