Can anyone point me towards a Lawson document, or a listing that someone may have posted, that explains what variables I might expect to see in the [ProgramName].cfg files and what those variables do for the program I see some .cfg files for batch job programs (five character program name) and a couple for on-line jobs (BRIP.cfg specifically). I've searched here & on Lawson's Knowledge Base screens and have not had much luck finding anything that explains in detail what these vari...

I need to run a report for auditors to see when accounts were set up. I ran GL221 which was 22,492 pages and exported to csv. It is stopping around excel line 637,500 and is incomplete. Lawson Support can't offer any suggestions. Does anyone have any ideas Thanks so much!

Lawson AR has EFT capabilities - that are targeted toward a 'Pre-authorized Debit' scenario - I.E. maintains customer bank account data in support of EFT.

How do the hospital users out there handle internal transfers from department to department We have many internal services that get requested by our PIs that we then need to perform a cost transfer from the service department to the PI. Our service departments would be similar to many service departments at a hospital (Histology, Radiology, Pharmacy, etc.). The issue that we are faced is that many of these transfers happen monthly and we want to streamline the process while capturing transac...

I'll begin by saying I know virtually NOTHING about AP, except it really isn't (or shouldn't be) a convoluted process.... We're in the final stages of upgrading from v8.1 apps to 9.0.1 and we're having a problem with AP520 for one particular deduction. It's a simple of pay, however, in the new app, this is the only deduction that we receive the above error - distribution out of balance - and we then can't create an AP check. There is no error on the 197, no errors on the 198, and the amo...
