We're tossing around the idea of loading an entire product line of nearly 15,000 items into PO25. Currently the OR reqs items as specials if it's not one of the 200 items we have built in Lawson for that product line. And then they get the cost wrong or the vendor cat number wrong and it makes more work for Purchasing. I've resisted this in the past thinking the maintenance would be a nightmare.   But I have no real basis for this argument. Has anyone else done this What would be the pitfalls ...

After much wrestling, the only way I got the Fax Integrator 9.0.0.2 to use dialing rules is to include the country code like this:  1 (913) 222-2222.  The regular 10-digit number stored in Lawson PO10 doesn't work. Has anyone else ran in to this  Perhaps a MS patch to fax services or .net

I'm trying to set up the PO email functionality on the Fax Integrator (v. 9.0.0.2) but I'm running into an issue connection to our MS Exchange server. The integrator log shows this: 10/13/2008 1:57:06 PM : l_ERROR : Unable to connect to the remote server 10/13/2008 1:57:06 PM : l_ERROR : at System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Send(MailMessage message) at FaxIntegrator.EMail.SendEmail(String subject, String recipient, ArrayList attachments, Sender senderInfo, String body) 10/13/2008 1:57:06 PM : l_E...

We are not happy with the delivery and pick tickets from Lawson. We had some luck with Form Fast but came to a dead end because of the Lawson comment fields. Is they anyone who has come up with an alternative picklist and delivery ticket that would be willing to share their ideas or help point me in the right direction  How did you handle the comment fields that need to print

For the Requester table I notice the indexes are based on the fields of Company, Requester and Req_Location. In the system we have the some duplicate records. Here is my question if the data is the same on the records how are they uniquely identified Does the upper or lower case make a difference I would not thing that it would. Below is an example of one of the duplicate records: Company  Requester  R_Name  Approve_CD  REQ_Location  Active_Status etc. 1000           HHC51       HANDHELD HIL...

Has anyone had any experience with Service invoices not being able to be 3 way matched in Lawson From an accounting standpoint not being able to receive the 'goods' in which this would not create a liability on the books has become an issue.

Hey all, Sorry if this is long, I just wanted to give as much information as I could...any help would be greatly appreciated. Several months ago, we installed MSP11 on our Production system which required an upgrade to RSS. Over the past few weeks, some requesters have reported slowness during checkout in Shopping, some having to wait up to 10 minutes to checkout. The reports have been scattered by location as well as time of day, but it does not seem to be affecting all users, at ...

Has anyone experienced the PO58 Receipt Inquiry program hanging When we put in the company and PO number and select inquire, the program just loops and hangs.

To Whom It May concern: My company currently uses Lawson Procurement - portal 9.0.0.3.169 technology 9.0.0.3.291. My question is around setting up items in the item master. For receivable items we currently set up items with an item that is tied to accounting codes, UOM, and specified pricing. What happens in this scenario, when the item is entered with the quantity, the pricing, UOM and accounting information is populated. Recently, we have asked that the same be done for non-receivable ...

Hello, I know that the receiving adjustments are done if there is a change is the received quantity of a poline. Do we need to have receiving adjustments if there is a change in the PO cost for a poline which is received     thanks, Srikanth

I know you're not supposed to offer to buy/sell goods or services in these forums but since I'm giving these away I though it would be ok.  Since we went to MSCM and Dolphin 9550's I have some Symbol PDT6100's I would like to unload.  19    PDT6100 35-key units - 3 of Z0863H00 with 2MB internal memory; 4 of Z08G3H00 with 8MB; 12 of Z0823H00 with 2MB.           SER 3000    1.15-00/1.12-00         BIOS 6100    1.15-00/1.12-00         TPA 0576K/0640K    EMS 7168K/1536K         DOS 3.41,  Laws...

I am new to lawson and would like to know more about data interface between PO and AM. My goal is to have asset visibility from the time we create the purchase order, receive the item....and allow that information to migrate to 'Asset Management'. Currently, there is a disconnect and our data transfer requires lot of human intervention resulting in an inaccurate asset data. Is there an option in the PO application where I can populate initial product information, i.e. Make and model Then ...

We are looking into acquiring an Enterprise Asset Management system with St Croix and Four Rivers leading the vendor list.  Does anybody have experience with interfacing any of the system with Lawson Procurement  They both say that they can interface.  What I am looking for is the data flow of the items in the PO into the asset inventory.   I also found out Lawson does have its own EAM but so far they only send me a flyer on what it does but no details on data flow.

I am looking to see how other companies have implemented blanket po's in Lawson procurement.  Are there specific fields you utilize to distinguish a blanket po, e.g. po code  We'd like to send them through Process Flow as well, are there only spcific blanket po's that may require approval  What if the blanket po contains mulitple accounting units

Trying to find out if anyone has successfully set up and uses multiple requester id's linked/attached to one single log on for RSS. We've got several users who order for different departments, etc, and they have multiple requester id's in RQ04. But, we want them to have one single log on ID when logging in to use Portal RSS. I know now they would need separate log on id's, one for each requester id. This is in LSF 9.0 environment with 8.1 apps, on AIX. My thought was it's possible to set up m...

Hi all, We are upgrading our lawson system from 7.24 to 8.1.0. We converted all the data from 7.24 to 8.10 through the conversion programs provided by lawson. But now we are struck into a new problem with MATCH-OBJ-ID field in APINVOICE,PORECLINE  tables. This field is new in 8.1.0. The conversion programs are populating value 0 to these fields. But i could these that there are many programs which are using MATCH-OBJ-ID as key in the process example invoice unmatch. So the converted data i...

Can anyone tell me if Lawson 8.03 calculates DPO days by vendor

I switched all the requestors under a security class from COMPANY 2 to COMPANY 10. Now they can't get in Requisitions Self-Service. The portal just hang at 'Loading...
