I have all my fields saved in the ez 500, and works great but i wonder if you need to complete the headland before you can see the AB line. I mean, this year its muddy in some places in the field and i wont be able to reach the saved Headland line. So can i skip over that part of headland and still be able to get the AB line? I could record a new Headland line but i need ro fertilize so would be nice to use the already saved line. Sorry for my bad english.

On mine you have to drive over the headland into the rest of the field before the AB line comes up having pressed 'headland completed' I think

I would have to try on my 500, as it's only really used for section control, but on the 750 you can either have it on auto where it switches to the inner guidance lines once you cross the headland inner boundary; or have to manually switch between them in the guidance menu. I have different implements saved with the different methods in their profiles. Auto for fert, manual for the drill.

I expect the 500 to at least adopt one or the other, so no need to drive the headland.
