Can someone explain to me the biggest difference between PFI and PFX I see that there is not a translator for WebSphere included in PFX, but what does that mean exactly Anyone out there licensing PFX over PFI ...

I am invoking a sensitive web services which requires a userID and password. i.e. the WSDL sets up to require the invoking client to submit a UserID and password. How would I provide that security information in the PFI Web Services Node. This node has the Input tab. But this tab is usually used for the Web Services key parameter. Is there something on the PFI Server config file which I can use to put in the UserID and Password for this particular Pflow xml

Is there a way to get rich text fonts in process flow generated emails

Is there any way to allow the designer to scroll much further to the right  I'd rather have a long liner flow than one on different vertical levels.

Trying to see if anyone else can confirm. I am writing a new pflow with a total of 4 queries, with each nested within the other. It appears that the 4th one, deepest imbedded is not being executed at all. I've looked over the flow carefully. Is this correct Is there a limit on the number of nested queries in processflow Thanks

Friends, Help me understand this one. It seems to be one thing after another with process flow... I have a flow that runs the following SQL (assuming my variables are values) SELECT 'L_HAPI'.'NAME' as COMMENTNAME FROM 'APINVOICE' LEFT OUTER JOIN 'L_HAPI' ON 'APINVOICE'.'L_INDEX'='L_HAPI'.'L_INDEX' WHERE 'APINVOICE'.'VENDOR'= AND 'APINVOICE'.'INVOICE'='' AND 'APINVOICE'.'COMPANY'= ORDER BY 'APINVOICE'.'INVOICE_DTE', 'APINVOICE'.'VENDOR' Some brief history: I have a f...

I have created a new PF that is doing a resource query that is running for 'People' so that I can pull data for all users. The resource query is taking over 6 hours to run. I don't have any filtering criteria defined since I want data for all users, I also do not have any sort defined. There are only around 7300 records that are being returned in the query. Any ideas on how I can speed this turtle up Any help will be very much appreciated!! We are running PFI 9.0.1.6. Thanks!

Hi There. I would like to know how to make the current WorkUnit Metrics Task rcd inactive or a status of 2 -action taken. We move in basket rcds from task to task at times, even though it hasn't gone thru a User Action Node. We are on LSF9 Rel and I use WeRuns extensively...I have resorted to adding a new task and deleting the previous task rcd.. I would prefer to do exactly what ProcessFlow does, as it goes to another UserAction Node...It changes the previous status to a '2' and adds the next t...

We are using PFI to integrate Lawson with multiple different systems and as an organization are in the process of standardizing integration using JMS.  Previously we were running WebSphere MQ and I had PFI connected and sending JMS messages without much difficulty.  Now we are switching to Apache ActiveMQ and I am unsure of the values to put in the connection fields. In the provider url I have tcp://host:61616 Initial ContextFactory is set to org.apache.activemq.jndi.ActiveMQInitialContextFact...

I am using PFI 9. My monitor is 22 inches. However, with so much object in the screen, clicking a node or connection, the designer goes and refresh all the nodes and it takes time to finish. Do you experience this Such a pain to watch one node refresh one at a time. My computer is powerfull enough (3ghz Interl Duo CPU with 3 gb ram). When I check the CPU usage in Task Manager, it only takes up to 50. Memory usage is small. Setting the priority to High does not help (in bat file: start /High...

I have a data source that contains special characters (/ \ ) in several fields and I have to write it out without those characters - they should be replaced by spaces. Is there an accepted way to do this in a flow

Has anyone ever goptten an invalid date error on an AGS call, that, if processed manually through Portal, submits just fine I have a call that I am updating a batch job with. When I update the job manually in Portal, with all the exact same data as is being uised in the call, the job updates successfully. However, if I submit the call from process flow, I get an error that says invalid date format. I even tested it directly through the browser and it returns the same error. It's the As...

I have a situation with about 25 conditions that a flow has to evaluate.  Am I seeing things or can a branch only handle 10 conditions  Do I need to split into several branch nodes at this point in the flow

Is it really a requirement to upgrade from Process Flow Professional to Process Flow Intergrator when going to 9.0.1

Im having trouble with a piece of java_script....it needs  one more line    dcell= '' addLeadingZeros(dcell,12); if (DED_DED_AMT  dcell = DED_DED_AMT;  dcell= '-' addLeadingZeros(dcell,12); }     I need to display numbers in a format of 000000001.23.   Certain numbers will be negative and need to be displayed as -00000001.23   The code does everything right except when a number is negative it is displaying -0000000-1.23   Can anyone help me with the line or 2  of code I nee...

Friends, I am in need of some help... I am trying to error check an email node to see if an email is sent out. On most nodes in PF, there are _errorCode, _outputData and _returnMessage properties (let's call them). Does the email node have any 'properties' and if so, what are they can can they help with error checking Thanks in advance for your help with this.

We have a process that we use once a year.   In the past we setup an USERACTION task for each supervisor within processflow and then had to maintain the information on the task assignments.   When Lawson rolled out the HRUSERACTION we moved to that because it knows who the supervisors are automatically.   The problem is this: With the old task setups I could have one user see ALL items for the task and take actions if the supervisor did not act.   With the new process of using the HRUSERACTIO...

Trying to run a FileClient from a bat file on Windows 2007. Is this possible

Is there a way to get the day of the week from a date I'm sure there is an easy javascript function to do it, but would I have to add it to some js lib so process flow would provide it

Hi, I have a Time out question, that we use based from the User Action node....I have action selected and a variable for the duration and hrs as the  measurement....So if after say, 48 hrs the user hasnot acted, the action will be triggered after the timout has expired....In addition I update the hrs on weekends, this is the portion that is a hit or miss...This allows the activity to be stretched so the timeout doesn't expire on weekends, its like weekends don't count... The problem is that s...

We are in the process of upgrading to Pflow 9.0.1.7 and I am running a flow that currently works in 9.0.0.6.  THe particular flow has a work unit as the last node in the flow that triggers another flow to start running.  When I run this flow from my designer, the designer shuts down once it gets to that node, however if I check the box to run it from the server it does not shut down and correctly triggers the 2nd flow.  Any ideas on what is causing it to shut down

Is there a way to prevent specific users from connecting to the server using Pflow Designer, but still allow them access to Pflow Administration We have a number of users who need to have access to Pflow Administration to trigger and monitor flows.  However a couple of them have 'found' the Pflow Designer on MyLawson and installed it, and are downloading and running flows locally rather than triggering them from the server.  This probably isn't a big deal except that it means they can probab...

The ProcessFlow Designer 901 retains the login and password of the last person that successfully logged in. This is a problem if a colleague and/or Sys Admin logins to somebody else PF Designer because the Designer will retain the credentials for the next person to login. Is there a way to clear the ProcessFlow Web Password, under the General tab, so it is not available for the next ProcessFlow developer login using the same PF Designer client Thank you, Gaston

We've created another LSF 9 server which will be identical to our production server, users, security and all. We want to migreate process flow but find little to no information on this. Examining the WF tables in logan, I see the processing tables vs. the setup tables. Is migrating processflow as simple as running rngdbdump/importdb from the old server on the setup tables to the new server and moving the flow files over Or is there more to it We expect to do this on a regular basis so we are l...

Sorry for the cross post - its kind of cross topic. I'm trying to provide a way to update workunit and task info from a design studio form. I can get workUnitBForm (and others) to work fine from a web run. However, per the KB article, I should be able to call it directly as a URL call. But when I call it from the full URL outside of a flow I'm getting the message 'The DisplayExec' you have specified cannot be found. Has anyone ever called any of the WF forms from outside of a flow This is...
