I am also uploading my files to LOTW. But as 4X6UU wrote it seems that you
have to modify the ADIF file:

..." You must change all QSL_SENT and QSL_RCVD fields to Y or N , these are
the valid letters that are used and not CARD or LOTW as used by DXBASE.
Also the QSL_VIA field must contain a legal Callsign of the manager.
The good news is that AdifMaster can do these thing very quick and than you
just save the modified file and upload it to us."

I think W3UA's comments are unnecessarily, even unfairly, critical of
DXbase.  I did a quick test .adi a short time ago and the file appears to
conform fully to the ADIF standard.  I have had no problems uploading DXbase
.adi's to LoTW, so I will predict that they will work fine with GlobalQSL,
provided GlobalQSL does the right things with the file.

... not sure if 'this is enoght' or if the ADI files needs a modification.

Great suggestion, Bill.  I tried it, and it works FB.  The hardest part was
unhiding the "Special 1" column that I hid years ago and never used.  Now
there's a good use for it.

You can already do this.
Not with an icon but what I do, is when I log in bureau cards, put a code in

Special1 field.
What ever you want to use for the code, perhaps Global???

Then when you want to develop the .adi file, just use the Wizard to select 
and create a file with only qsos that have Global in the Special1 field.
