Just a sidenote here, that I was not aware of, is that the field "Hotlink and element ID" is not editable in schedules, whereas "Element ID" is. I came here because I could not figure out why the IDs could not be edited from the schedule, but eventually figured it out. It doesn't seem like this is the exact issue for OP, but a thing to look for is whether the field is blue or black in the Scheme settings. If the field is blue it's editable and if it's black it's uneditable. In most cases "Element ID" does the trick, but in the template I'm working with the window list schedule was set to "Hotlink and element ID".
I really wish Archicad was a bit more informative in terms of the UI giving feedback on why certain things are locked, uneditable etc. I quite often find myself in situations where something just randomly will not work and having to test ten different settings to find the underlying cause.
