What kind of testing policy do you have for testing CTP's  For instance - we just applied a CTP which compiled roughly 220 programs.  Do you test every program or do you just test the issue that lead you to apply the CTP  Some of the programs I don't even have access to.

Does anyone (that does not use JIT) process receipts electronically through MA531, prior to running invoice matching through MA540 We have looked into receiving receipts electronically to reduce the number of 'no receipt' errors when running the MA540. However, our fear is that since we use 'perpetual' inventory (cycle count processing), this can't really be done. If we process the receipts prior to the inventory being physically received, the QOH in the system will be unreliable. We do n...

The APINUSRFLD Table (ISR) Object ID field does not link to the APINVOICE (API) Object ID.  I don't see where the APINUSRFLD Object ID links to anything.  I need to link the Invoice Header User Field data with the Invoice Number they were generated from.

When dealing with standing orders, does anyone now how to have source documentation carry over from one release to the next

We are trying to set up service POs for equipment maintenance. When we do the PO for the total year amount, say $12,000, the whole amount hits the current period as an expense. How can we enter the PO Line so that only the current months fee of $1,000 is expensed.

Does anyone use Vendor Agreement for things like month apartment rent, or capital equipment leases or service maintenance agreements

Is anyone aware of the purpose and function of these two forms

Hi All, We have Lawson 8.1 .0.4 on Win 2003, with SQL2005 backend. We would like to use the Vendor Performance reports/inquiry screen but have found one major flaw - hence would appreciate comments/suggestions from others. Lawson does not seem to hold a Monthly working calendar (ie no way to define certain days of month as working and others as non working) and seems to operate on 7 days a week default calendar. This has a direct effect on the vendor performance reports as shown below - we pl...

Dumb question that I hope has an easy answer. How can you reprint a PO that has been closed

We have about 15 users who are not able to see their templates in RSS on their PC. We have remoted into the PC and with Admin rights get the same results. If the users sign into another PC, they see the templates. It seems like looking for a needle in a haystack to find the differences between the PC's that could be causing the issue. Has anyone run into this issue or have some suggestions as to where we should be looking. So far we are looking at XML parsers, IE version and java versions. Any...

Does anyone know how to resolve this error.  At first we thought it needed a price but we have a price and PO's have gone out with price.  Any thoughts

We are in the process of selecting a vendor to provide our company with the use of P-cards.  I was looking to see if anyone had any experience in using the P-card capabilities and features in Lawson, in addition to any other experiences that you may have in using P-cards.  If needed I can set up a call.

Hi.. We are going through the J.I.T. implemenation right now and ready to start working with our item data.  We are going to be about 95 JIT on our par carts inventory.  Can anyone give some tips or ideas on how you setup your par locations and the item replenishment   I know that we can set each item to replenish from our JIT vendor, but that would mean touching each line of each par location.  And currently we are without add-ins.  So, is there an alternative way to do this, with regards t...

Hello, We're setting up Line Level approvals for Processflow using RSS. We've got the Services and processes set up and enabled to use the 3 line level approval services using Pflow administrator. We've got IC01, RQ04 flags to use Line level approvals. In RSS, when ordering and then proceeding to checkout, all users are getting the error within RSS: 'Processflow Line Level approval not enabled' I've triple-checked all of the set up with the Processflow set up and RSS set up but still I don...

When we run PO135, and export the report to a CSV file through POrtal, the totals of PO-CUR-AMT column of CSV file does not match that of report. Actually this is happening when there are multiple distribution for the same PO Line. Did this occur to any one If so how do you handle this situation

We are having issued with documents lines combine to a PO, can anybody tell me how to get a purchase order to a document, combining on Accounting Unit and Vendor RQ04 record is set up to override the disable single RQ to a single PO.

Working on a Materials Management Inventory Report that I can publish on a dashboard. Need to see the morning inventory status, receipts/issues for the day and ending status. Has anyone worked on this type of report Thanks,

I'm looking for assitance in acquiring some Purchasing and Matching training. My team's schedule is too convoluted to effectively send them to a training course, and not large enough to make brining Lawson on site cost effective. Does anyone know any PO/MA functional consultants who would be willing to provide 2-3 days worth of end-user training for 9.0.1 PO and MA Thanks.

Can you tell me what the best practice would be in order to close PO's and PO lines that have been hanging open for several years Most efficient method to close, easiest. These are PO's that show up on a monthly PO220 OPEN report. This report has not been taken care of at all since the organization started using Lawson. I am fairly new to this position and want to get old business cleaned up. The lines are still open for various reasons: receiving didn't get done, items hit BO status at vendo...

Hi and thanks for your help, I am looking at the Cycle Count Accuracy Report located at IC286, and I noticed that a few of the cycle counts contained 'Class 2' and 'Class 3' errors. What are these errors and how do they differ from 'Class 1' Thanks for your help, Will

Thanks for your help, Let me start by saying I am using Lawson version 9.0. When I set up two vendors for a single item (this is so buyers have a choice of vendors) I have determined that the PO is routed to the Vendor on the top row of PO28 that is not on hold - regardless of what happens on the buyers side. Is this normal and/or is there a way around it Thanks, Will
