    We are having trouble with Form Help in HR11 in Portal.  Form Help works in other applications but HR11.  We did go through LID and that worked, however using Form Help in HR11 does not work at all.

     

    Any ideas. 

    This has stumped Lawson Support also.

      Have you tried to clear the HR11.hlp file and rebuild it?  Normally located in $LAWDIR/productline/map/default/ (at least on 8.0.3 and 9.0.0). 

      I would remove all the HR11 files there (.xml, .hlp, and .trm) then recreate using them using qcompile.

        Look under your LAWDIR/help/*language*/*productline* /HR11_1.xml

        the size of the file probably is 0kb, thus form help doesnt work.

        I don't know why that is, when i install the application help from lawson, I discovered alot of 0kb xml help files. any program with 0kb xml help files won't display form help in portal.

        To work around portal form help missing, copy the HR11.1.xml from LAWDIR\*productline*\map\default to LAWDIR\help\*language*\*productline*\HR11_1.xml

          After further examining the blank form help problem. I have discovered the XML help files have an error tag causing the form help to hang.

          Looking under your portal help XML files folder. %LAWDIR%\help\en-us\productline

          remove greaterthansign !DOCTYPE lawsonhelp PUBLIC "-//Arbortext//DTD Composer 1.0//EN" "../doctypes/composer/composer.dtd" smallerthansign

          save and IOS cache refresh, then the form help will work correctly.
