I have setup the JAVA_HOME variable within the system settings on my laptop.  This laptop had never had Process Flow installed.  (yes I rebooted after the settings).  I also found an article that says I need a LAW_JAVA_HOME also setup.  so I did that too During the installation, it continues to tell me that it is not finding the Java Virtual Machine I am using JAVA\jre7 Thanks

Hello: Anyone know how to find the workflow in IRC that is connected to a PA52 action    The situation is we have an action on PA52 that has workflow attached to it and I can not find the linked workunit.   it is easy to go the other direction when you know a workunit number so there has to be an easy way to search for a workunit when you know the PA52 action.

We are recreating a report for Audit Department, showing processflow approvals, etc (now LPA approvals).  We used to show messages attached to the workunits as well. We can find the message header info in the PFIMESSAGE table, but where is the detail info for that message I have been unable to locate it. Thanks in advance

I am new to ProcessFlow need a little help debugging a flow using the Eclipse designer. We are an Infor Managed Services customer, i.e., they host our Lawson servers. Their policy is that managed servers cannot be joined to the customer's domain, so we must use FTP to transfer files from our systems to the Lawson server. To use FTP from within PF, IMS created a Lawson program, MS100. It's a form with parms that specify the FTP particulars, local server IP, user, password, file to tr...

I want to select all the records for two (or three) different flows. Can anyone please tell me how to accomplish this  I've tried using ors, ands and double-pipes and double-ampthesands; with and without quotes and backward slashes; both in the key field selection and also with using the filterString attribute with multiple sta...

I am trying to modify the standard IPA work item list by changing the columns from Workunit, Description, Start Date, Due Date, Filter Value, Originator, Authenticated Originator to Workunit, Description, Start Date, Buyer Code, Filter Value, Originator.   I've read every bit of documentation I can find, I've tried to modify recsum.htm, and the .js scripts.   So far I've been unable to do so.   I am working with LSF 9.0.1.10, LMK 10.0.4, IPA 10.0.4, and LSO 10.0.4 on Windows 2008 R2 with SQL Ser...

I am brand new to Infor Process Automation.  I have finally achieved 90 of what I want to accomplish in my process flow using Infor Process Automation.   One of the 2 remaining pieces is to make sure the process only runs from 6:00 am to 8:00 pm.   I created a File Channel to 'watch for' and recognize when a file shows up on my Lawson application server.  However, I only want this file channel active from 6:00 am to 8:00 pm.   I am aware that there is a Flow scheduling capability but have be...

I have a client that is experiencing process flow logs being overwritten with the 2nd part of the flow. The start node information and all the actions up to a HRUA node are gone. This occurs when an error from the HRUA signals the 'not found' action.  The next node after the HRUA for 'not found' is an email stating there is an issue with the flow.  The 'not found' is occurring when a clear (unique) RMID is not found for the supervisor. -- My first thought was that the log files were being de...

I created a process flow and then a file channel.  The file channel acts as a file watcher for me and kicks off my process flow when it 'sees' a file in a specified directory.  However, if more than 1 file is identified, it kicks off multiple instances of my process flow.  A majority of the time this is not a problem, however that small percentage of the time it causes issues.  The issue is:  I have a 'work' file that gets read and sometimes gets written to.  When more than 1 work unit runs at a...

I've noticed that some of the delivered functions have an additional field. I can't find any documentation on how the call should now be setup. I dont know when it was added, it was not in version 9 of PF. EX:  addLeadingZeros(Varialble, final lengh, IsSpaceEscaped) What should go into the IsSpaceEscaped field Thanks

Please join this campaign! I am collecting signatures for a petition to Infor Product Development for making their source code available. I believe it is important for users, customers, partners and employees to be able to study the source code of the software they use most of their day, for testing, debugging, troubleshooting, support, and enhancement purposes. Infor Product Development already makes the source code of M3 Java programs available under certain license restrictions; fantastic. N...

Landmark Infor Process Automation Background: This is a complex issue that requires a developer's inside look at the object oriented code used in Process Automation. I have an instance where several email addresses setup in LTM, either as actor records or employee contact records are bad.  This causes a 550 error when sending the email message through SMTP.  The error message returned does not indicate what the bad email address was.  The email server does not bounce the message back to the...

I have been asked by our corporate offices whether Lawson has the capability to: 1. Consume a WebService 2. Expose a WebService for consumption We are the only hospital that has Lawson, all the rest have Meditech. I know that ProcessFlow has a WebService Node and I used it during a training class to do Currency Conversion. However, does anyone out there know someone that we can contact to consult with us about developing several custom WSDL's from Lawson to expose WebServices Thanks ...

Has any one done a Auto Provisoning of users using lawson. Such as to add an user in AD, and other applications.

I have a record that I am using the DataIterator to delimit by colon and an assign to true/false when evaluating DataIterator_Output2 for 'success' or 'failed'.  The branch then evaluates for True/False and if false (only) should write to a msgbuilder.  If true, needs to move on to the next record.  It is always writing to the msgbuilder regardless of true or false.  Can anyone review the code below from the workunit log and see where I am going wrong Activity started: DataIterator462...
