We took advantage of Lawson's undocumented logout feature for the portal by uncommenting the <LOGOUT> button for portal in the portalrole script (a copied version of the default.xml). When Microsoft fixed issues with user authentication in IE 6.0 SP1, this logout feature no longer worked, and refused to clear the user cache. Our company uses web-based clinical gateways, and it is imperative that we provide a logout feature that actually clears the user cache for the Lawson portal. ...

i remember there was a issue with a microsoft service pack,does anyone remember the fix,im trying to access meridian health care from home

All users here were used to LID. Now we are trying to get them moved over to Portal. This brought SEVERAL issues and problems, but the one that sticks out for me is in LID, you could do an F8, enter the system code (ie PO) and drop down to find the screen or job that you needed. This was not available in Portal, so I wrote a script that made it available as a Help option. If anyone would like a copy of this script for use at your site, please email me. moellerggenesishealth.com...

Does any know if there is a portal command that is the equvilant of the 'finger' command on LID From time to time we need to see who is logged in through the Portal and I can not find anything on the Lawson knowledge base (no surprise there) that will show me how to do this. Thanks, Maris Fisler Perot Systems Northern Arizona Healthcare

I have been able to change the base color in the Web Portal by manipulating the color cmds in the TRISCUIT.CSS file. (thanks to some direction from Dave) But, the widgets and graphics around the tabs need tweaked if you change colors. I am looking for a case stmt for the LOGON.HTM that will allow my to change the color based on the Product Line. Has anyone done any work\modification like this thanks, Brad

Does anyone know how to add the hourglass when a user clicks the LOGIN button. Our users are going crazy over not having this.

Has anyone found a way to add and run custom scripts via portal We are upgrading (hopefully)from a LID environement to a Portal environment and we have many custom scripts and need the ability to add/delete and run these scripts. I know Lawson does not officially support this, but I was wondering if anyone has been able to get it to work in a similar manner to the way it works in LID today Thanks for any help provided. Frank

We have Lawson environment (Database) running in iseries. Websphere and IIS runs on windows 2003 server. Can we install IOSRS and IOSRE in windows 2003 server and still have the portal retrieve data from iseries Is there any documentation explaining this Thanks Hari

Has anyone been able to disable the links to Google, Excite and Yahoo on Portal for Self Service I have tried commenting out the URLS in the default.xml, but this has not been successful. We do not want to remove the search box altogether, just limit the direct URL links to these external sites.

Due to SOX compliancy we are required to use a SecurId password (password that contains numbers and changes evry minute) when logging in to Portal. But everytime we display a different page it keeps on asking us to enter a password. Any ideas on how to setup Portal so it won't ask for the SecurId password after first login. This setup is working properly using LID where we only login once using the SecurId password and it does not prompt us to enter it again. Thanks.

Has anyone ran into the issue where to get Portal to work, you need to load 2 or 3 (depending on version of IE) Microsoft patches for XML or some such animal Patches that Microsoft has determined are not critical, and therefore get installed automatically. We have a Citrix farm here at work and want all employees to have access to ESS from home, library where-ever but would just as soon not have to have them all use Citrix and bog down the whole farm. So our help-desk is about to...

Greetings all: Users here want a mod to the ESS. Specifically the Employment section, and the Primary Job Profile link. We would like to add the Employment Status to this table. I have found the file that I think I need to modify (empprofile.htm), but am only vaguely familiar with OO programing. Can someone provide maybe some examples of what you have done Or where do we start Need to find out where it is calling to get the data from the Employee table.... Tha...

My company is considering setting up SSL on our Lawson web server to use with Portal. Has anyone else done this yet If so, how'd it go and how's it working I haven't found much information on the Knowledge Base other than KB article 98295. I definitely think it's a good idea, but not sure if it will cause more trouble than it's worth. Thanks!

Hi: If a company uses both LID and portal applications, will any change made on a .scr file in LID be automaticlly reflected on Portal (and vice-versa).

We are working on setting up Lawson's Manager Self-Service and would like to remove access to some of the drill options that are available in the 'Direct Reports' drill window (ie. Tax Information, Benefit Criteria, etc). I know that I can remove these drill options by removing access to the appropriate database tables via the 'laua' utility. Are these drill options defined in a .htm or .js file in the portal environment If so, can this file be editted to remove access f...

We have about 5000 rd30 records. Most of which do not have the PORTALROLE attribute filled out. Is there an easy way to identify the blank ones, and therefore create a LX995 job/file to fill JUST the ones that don't have something in them already

Hello, Can anyone refer me to any Lawson books or publications Looking for self-paced training on this ERP. Please let me know. Thanks!
