First I want to say is, I have no experience in Lawson. My knowledge consists of what I can make head or tails out of from the training workbooks of some of my colleagues. So with that out of the way, I have been assigned the task of trying to completely automate the one time deductions. What we have now is we do a data dump from the cafeteria, gift shop; etc. After that, we have a process flow that reads the file, parses out the data, modifies the data and then creates a csv file. Then payroll ...

We use Lawson payroll and Kronos for time and attendence we are looking at implementing positions within Lawson. Does anyone currently interface Kronos with Lawson that uses positions

We moved to Lawson in 2006 and the PAEMPPOS table has history back to 12/26/2006 but we have a need for data going back prior to 2006 and the HRHISTORY,PERSACTHIST, and PRRATEHIST all have the history from our previous HR\Payroll software. My issue is how to display one clean row per effective dated change instead of showing several rows for every history action. Could I create a derived field in Crystal Rpts like DEPT=HRHISTORY.FLD_NBR='15' so it would only display the ee's department for t...

We have a regular number of employees losing benefits because of a reduction in hours. The BN100 is ending the employee's benefits correctly, but not creating a BN70 for the employee. We had 5 employees who lost benefits due to the same PA on 5/29/11, 4 had the BN70 created and one didn't. On 5/27, we had two lose benefits, one had the BN70 created and one didnt. It is the same personnel action, and in many cases, the same benefit plans. When I review the BN100 it shows the health an...

Hi-First time poster here & just getting familiar with the Add Ins. I've been able to set up my query to capture most fields out of Lawson for purposes of budgeting. However, I'm stumped on this: We have numerous employees whose time is split amongst mutiple departments on a permanent basis & when they are paid it is being coded in this fashion. However, when I go to run my query I can only seem to find their home department in the download. Are there fields within the tables I shou...

An ee who has been with us for 1-4 years, if they haven't taken any flextime, can accrue up to 362 hrs. Anyone 5-9 yrs, can have up to 432 hrs and it can go all the way up to 608 total hours; the longer you work here the more flexttime you accrue. How does other companies handle this 352 max limitation TIA, S

We created a State only taxable wage paycode and pay summary group. This is working except the wages are included in the employee child support percentage calulation. I have worked with Lawson and they do not have an answer for us. Has anyone else experiened this issue. What are you doing for the taxable dependent benefits Thanks for any help you can give:cool:

When we process a new employee, it seems that the PR13 is sometimes filled in with default resident/state information and sometimes it's not. Sometimes when it is filled in, it's only partially filled in. We've narrowed the issue down to 'Salary History' - it's missing. For every individual who is missing PR13, they do not have Salary History filled in on their record. (drill around > salary history folder is missing) What would cause a Salary History error We have hired 2 individuals t...

We are attempting to install ESS on a stand alone Windows server. The Portal and other Lawson applications reside on another server inside our fire wall. ESS will reside alone on its own server. I am seeing that Lawson install does not suggest this configuration - it has installing on the same server with the rest of the other components or installing with the Portal software on a server outside a firewall. I am wondering if anyone has tried this implemention we are looking at where the ESS ...

We have several employees with multiple roles, and I know we are not alone, so ..How is everyone tracking the multiple reviews We track the review ratings in the pa26, but the actual eval is done in a third party remote-hosted system. Thanks

Do you know of a vendor that has an app that supports electronic state w4 forms We'd like to create a link in Lawson that will allow employees to access and submit state specific forms in ESS. It's my understanding that we are also required to save an electronic image of these as well.

Has anyone ever seen the message 'Action number changed; perform the reverse again' when trying to reverse an action on PA52.5 Can't find the error on My Lawson, either.... trying to figure out what my user did..... :crazy:

We currenly are using PRUEDED to do a custom calculation for our teacher and support staff retirement. While the calculation works fine during the school year it is during the summer when teachers are not on contract and teaching summer school we do not want PRUEDED using some of the board paid deductions to calculate retirement for their summer work. We are looking at removing the deduction cycle 1 and 2 from these employees (PR15.2) but we are having a difficult time with accessing the field ...

Hello, I am getting a garbage value 202020202.02 in the amount fields whose debit and credit values value are zeroes, while printing to a CSV file. I have already initialized that field in the CSV but not working. I checked, using display statements, it is picking up the correct values, also calcuating current values but while priniting it prints up 202020202.02 from nowhere. It is occuring for only those account values which have zero credit and debit account. Any idea Thanks- Vijay

Our employees want to save their pay checks from ESS instead of printing. Some have Adobe so they can make it a PDF, but what about those who do not I cannot find another way for them to save the check.

I have a requirement In MS ADDINS. It says that If Cell is kept blank on the Excel template for that column it should not change that corresponding field value in the Lawson form (such as AP30.1) but if some value is entered in that cell the corresponding field value in Lawson form should be changed. Is it possible via Lawson MS Addins

We had an employee who worked for our company prior to installing Lawson. He also worked for us after we installed Lawson. He terminated while we had Lawson, so a term record exists on his account but not a prehire/hire action. He was scheduled to be rehired so we keyed the prehire action (this gets things like his PC set up and a security badge started). Unfortunately, he didn't actually show up for the job and we're now trying to reverse out his prehire action on PA52. We keep getting...

We have a need to run LP331 for 953 employees to fix an oops. There is no addins to do this and there is history out there that we want removed, so lp31 will not let us delete that way. I know that in version 9017 lp331 has an option to remove via emp group..but we are not able to get that tested and installed before we have to do this purge in live. I'm thinking that we'll have to plug in 9 emp 's at a time and run lp331 106 times unless there is something that I've not thought of. I...

Hi, Can anyone please confirm how to use Upload Wizard (via AddIns)for adding stop Direct Deposit date for all the employees terminated through Mass Uploadation. In our company we are having a big client where 'n' number of employees were terminated by using AddIns, but we find that Direct Deposit is still Active in PR12 screen. A Stop Date needs to be entered for all those employees in PR12, Is there a query that can be uploaded to add end date in PR12 Screen. Thanks in advance. Upasa...

Need report showing, by employee, who had a PR82 Adjustment (twice for 3/31/10, twice for 6/30/10, twice for 7/03/10). 3/31/10 – PR82 would have been done twice, once removing wages and then to move those wages to new head process level. Same for 6/30/10 and same for 7/03/10. Need emp name, emp number, negative wages on 3/31/10 Then same info for positive wages on 3/31. Where can I get this info using Crystal reports

Hi, I am new to Process flow. I need to trigger a flow from MSS, when one presses a submit button under personnel actions. Can it be done from WFWK What are the initial setups i need to do before using WFWK, and can i call WFWK from the javascript code directly Thanks - Vijay

We are looking for any solutions others may have to accomodate a recent request. We are starting to do some work for government contracts which the employees will need to have certified payroll and be paid weekly when they work on these government contracts. Here are a few notes to keep in mind. 1. Will not always be the same employees 2. may not always be a full 40 hours worked on that project 3. the number of employees could change daily (could be 1 person could be 3 people) I thought...
