    Looking for folks who have used LS9 Accelerator templates, who would be willing to share their experience with them.   I have several questions, actually; so I won't try to list them all right now.   Wondering if anyone who has experience with them might be willing to chat, via phone call?    If not, perhaps we can just dialogue here.

    We are located in Winston-Salem, NC; we have approx. 1,000 Lawson financial users, with about 100 laua-defined Security Classes.  We use pretty much the full gamut of financials - GL, AP, HR, PR, PO, IC...    Interested in how much of a savings (time-wise) these templates made for you...  were they worthwhile?    Were you able to implement yourself, or did you need consultants?  These are some of my basic questions.

    Thanks in advance,

      The security templates (fast-track, I think they used to be called) saved us considerable time. Since my backup sysadmin and I were unfamiliar with Lawson security, we attended training on it, and had a security consultant come in as well to help us get started. The security templates are not difficult, but I'm sure it took someone at Lawson a LONG time to make them. Especially the ones for Employee and Manager Self Service. The security templates are NOT, I repeat NOT to be used in production without testing them first.
      The security consultant we had also recommended that we do things in a way that the upgrades since have proven not to be so comfortable with, so we've managed to undo some of his recommendations.
      I'll send you a follow-up email if you want to take the discussion off-forum.

        Has any one recently tried to use the LS9 Security Accelerator? Has it changed any in the past year? We have some business areas that want to convert as fast as possible, but they have limited time to review what their people are using to build the new roles.
