anyone else experience the inability to import department (change) onto existing transactions?
I can map onto the body and line-level department field, but even selecting a default value during mapping fails to actually update the transaction This is even though the CSV "successfully" imports
k
any workflows in place?

none that alter department. Found the issue though, to do with forms

so department isn't exposed on the preferred form for the transaction, but is on the standard form (obviously). I was importing using the standard form, but this wasn't actually changing the department when I went to check the transaction (either by querying the transaction's xml, or switching the transaction to the standard form in the UI). The fix was to expose (un-hide) the department field on the preferred transaction form, and use that form for importing
thought you could just use the non-preferred/standard form for importing, but apparently not in this case...
