How is anyone handling allowing users access to the csv files that are generated as output from HR170/RW100 in their print directories (primarily on Win platform) Currently there is a share on the print folder (BAD setup!) so they just drag and drop to local folder as needed. This means that sensitive data that is in other print files is accessible. The other option thought of is to restrict the individual print folders to the user and/or the proper AD group that should be allowed to dat...

I would like to copy a few users lawson jobs from our production server to test server. We refresh the database weekly, but the test users are requesting we move their current production jobs and definitions to the test server. What process do you suggest both servers are the same windows 2003, sql 2005

We went live with LS9 security and now when users go to submit any batch jobs they can add and change a job but when they submit the job they get an error message 'Job Queue is secured'. Anybody seen this error and any ideas on how to resolve this issue Thanks in advance.

we are currently on 9.0.0.4 on windows 32bit platform. I don't know if we should go to the 9.0.0.8 or directly to 9.0.1 Any suggestion

Support end September 30, 2012 for environment or application running on windows 2003 OS 32bit or 64 bit. Time to plan ahead!

My configuration: AIX 5.3 64-bit server; 32-bit WebSphere Version 6.1.0.11 and components; LSF 9.0.0.7 with 9.0.0.4 apps; two environments and two WebSphere profiles to equate to the environments. Ultimately planning to upgrade to LSF 9.0.1.5, and first step is to upgrade WebSphere to 64-bit Version 6.1.0.29. I want to upgrade one environment at a time so on-going development activities can continue on the separate environment. Therefore, I need to install a second WebSphere Application Serve...

Hey folks. A newbie to the Lawson world myself, I am working with a company that has implemented Lawson 8.0 on Sql Server 2000 and now want to go to Sql Server 2005 and Lawson 9.0.1.4 and have experienced issues. Read my blog for more on the issue and feel free to respond here or on my blog (which is ligitimate) with any assistance! Thanks much friends! http://countrypointe.com/2010/04/30/issues-tiering-lawson-9-0-1-4-on-sql-server-2005/

We're in the process of upgrading from LSF 9008 and Apps 9004 to LSF 9015 and Apps 901. In 9008 we have two ADAM instances. Lawson is bound to one with all the Lawson attributes and that ADAM instance is bound to another ADAM instance that synchronizes with AD and has pass through authentication. During this upgrade we are also upgrading from HP PARISC to HP Itanium and HP-UX 11iv1 to HP-UX 11iv3. So we have a new server and I'm installing all the 901 stuff fresh on the new server. My quest...

We are only starting an upgrade to LSF 9 in a few months. Everyone expects that every time someone will log on and every transaction will be tracked. We did not purchase LBI and only have Design Studio and Process Flow. Is this possible If it is not, do we have to purchase something else

Hello All, Does anyone know if the Database input/output routines within the COBOL programs are documented anywhere For example: If I wanted to know exactly what 840-FIND-EMPSET1 does; how would I find that We are researching the possiblity of moving one of our COBOL programs that runs after the payrun to a .Net program. The developer needs to determine what the db input/output routines are doing. Any help is greatly appreciated.

As with most companies that have ESS and MSS we have special portalroles assigned for when they sign with their ESS/MSS ID. We have obvious situations where an employee was setup as just a ESS user at first and then later promoted and becomes an MSS user. When this occurs the new portalrole assigned to MSS users forces the layout and subscription lock of Manager Self Services to their side nav bar. Our question is this, is there a way to force the order in which the subscriptions appear in t...

Is there any command to dump and load Element help text I have nearly 1200 Element Help text which need to be migrated. I tried with dumphelp/dumpload but couldn't get the element help text migrated. Thanking you in advance.

I can successfully copy the mssql database and the lawson documents from one lbi environment to another on a different server. But I have to manually go into reporting services Tools-> Services and reset the server names on the EFS, Reporting Services and SmartNote dashboards. The setup is identical between boxes, all I do is update the server name. Since I am only restoring a database from x to y the server name must live as an attribute within the mssql db. However I cannot find it. Doe...

Recently I had to re-install oracle and keep the existing database on-line. This required a new oracle path. I have imported the database into a new instance running out of this new oracle home but when I do a 'startlaw' I end up with a few errors with lajs. lajs: job server 9.0.0.7.199 2009-03-03 04:00:00 (200905) started, pid = 5321. queue: compile queue server 9.0.0.7.199 2009-03-03 04:00:00 (200905) started, pid = 5325. com.lawson.rdtech.opf.OPFRuntimeException: File LOGAN/WFEVTSE...

I have a user who can not add a job in LID. The other users were able to do so. Getting the error: File DEV/ARCOMP .OpenDBFile error is Unable to start driver (52). OpenDBFile error is Unable to start driver (52). System error is Invalid argument (22).   Thought it had to do with permission in the folders but that was changed and the user still could not add.   Any insight is greatly appreciated.

We have external auditors review our system yearly. One thing they requested is that we audit changes made to the system weekly (patches, ctps, etc). We would like to automate this process so that we do not manually have to review the install logs. We previously were doing this by sending the install logs via email and then rolling them off, but Lawson recently informed us this is not a good idea, because the install applications may review those logs. I am not sure if this is a likely cas...

I posted the below post in the Process Flow forum but I am also posting here because I am not convinced this is entirely a Process Flow problem. Any ideas you have are appreciated. Cheers Mates. Hello, We are receiving the below error message from flows. This doesn't occur for all flow so it is making it very difficult to trouble shoot. Any ideas what could be causing the problem, or a method to determine the problem. I have checked the security logs, ios.log, and SystemOut.log. None o...
