You can't change items from non-stock to stock. You will have to create new items and mark the old items inactive. You can do both of those things by importing. Export you list again and make a copy of the file. In one copy change the Inactive field from FALSE to TRUE, and then import it back in. That will set your existing items to Inactive so they don't get used again. In the other copy, change the item IDs in some way so that they will be unique and change the Item Type as you did previously. Importing this file will create the new stock items for you. It's also worth mentioning that there is no way to change the ID of an existing item through an import. If you want to use the original item IDs for the new stock items, you would first need to manually change every item using the Change ID button in Maintain Inventory Items. Then you could import the stock items without changing the IDs in the you had previously exported. You can hide inactive items in your lists going to the Options menu and choosing Global.
