Hi Kevin,
Is your Financial Statement consolidated or departmentalized? If the globe toolbar button is selected at the top of the screen (to indicate a consolidated statement), then the department field will not display, because it doesn't really have meaning. If you do not have the consolidate option active, that means the department field immediately to the right will be active. Whatever department is selected in this drop-down box will display in the cell for the department.
In case you wanted to verify the syntax for the Department field in the cell, it is:
=ADGET("GLDATA.DEPT",X)
where X is the acct-dept key. It could be hardcoded (ie "4000-100"), linked to the toolbar (ie "4000-`"), part of a range of accounts (ie "4000:4999-`"), or a cell reference (ie $A22).
