Do you know if there is any way that I can access the information in the 'Waiting' job queue I want to set up a batch program or script that can then notify individual users via e-mail that their jobs have gone into the 'Waiting Recovery' status. I would appreciate any information that you have available. I have searched the Lawson Knowledge Base and spent time searching the net. Thank you.

Has anyone written a script to do this Our production environment has a few nightly job streams that, when they fail, can cause problems if no one notices the failure. I was wondering if there was some way to check for the completion of a particular job, and perhaps generate an email with the completed status. We have purchased ProcessFlow, but will not be messing with if for some time as we are hoping to go live on the 9.0 apps this summer (we are still running 8.0.3 apps). We are run...

In our test environment, when we upload a CSV file into a Lawson tables (OIINVOICE and OIINVCLINE) the importdb utility is converting empty fields to 0 value fields.  We could use BL98 to update the invoices but there too many to handle for this and this does not happen in our production environment. Does anyone know why importdb does this and how to prevent it Thanks

Hi all, Looking for some suggestions on how to rectify our system slowness.  We recently moved our Lawson servers from one side of our data center to the other side.  The outcome of this was that our Lawson servers were given new IP address.  The Lawson system is working after the move, but we noticed our update jobs take a significantly longer time to complete (14000 records would take about 14 secs; now it takes about 50 minutes).  We run the following tests: ·         Networking Bet...

I was wondering if anyone is using the Infor System Console and/or the mobile app.  If so, do you like it  If not, why.  I'm just trying to see if it is worth my time to install and test.  Also, is there a license fee for the product  Any input would be appreciated.

Hello all,   having a strange issue with a Multi-step job that has been defined with 62 Lawson steps and one user token step.    When the job is run, it creates extra print report directories in this case 63, 64, 65 and 66,   there are no reports in the directories.  At one time the job could of had 66 steps and they were deleted/removed from the Multi-step job.   Please see attachment.    Would anybody have an idea on what is going on, or where to look.  Thanks Terry

Why would the command  rngdbdump -c bat gltransrel return 26 records, but the db2 'select * from lawson9.gltransrel' return zero records

I'm wondering if anyone can share what they are using for monitoring user activity in Lawson  Are you using 3rd party solutions  How long have you been using them  Is there anything lacking in these solutions    Thanks, Wes

We're about to install the mobile app suite. I've downloaded the 6 reference manuals needed (why 6 I'll never know), but would like to review some other documentation before I proceed.  If anyone has any Powerpoint presentations, session notes, or installation procedures that they used and wouldn't mind sharing, I would very much appreciate it. It wouldn't be for anything other than to help me review more of what I'm looking at doing, what was done successfully, and maybe to utilize when creat...

We are upgrading our Lawson environment which currently runs on IE 8.  We will need to go to IE 11.  What needs to be done to run Ming.le in a Citrix environment with IE 11

Hi- Can someone give me the LID command to compile all programs in a system code  I need to compile all GL programs.   I tried: cobcmp lsapps gl   It did some compiling but not all of GL.  Thanks!

So I am at a crossroads and would like input on the best path forward for a novice Sys Admin.                       We just had our DBA perform a refresh of our Test environment from our Production environment. We usually do not have issues, however after this latest refresh we were getting IOS errors in some of our screens. We traced the source of the issue to two CTPs that we had installed into Test that were not in our Production environment. Upon review, it was determined that they were no...

I have created new TEST productilne in backup server(V10 Env) using copy productline instructions. For some reason when i turn the security ON on the new productline, it disappears from dbdef and  appears back when i turn the security off on the productline. But if i login  as user root i do see this productline in dbdef, even if the security is turned on.

Possible to have multiple Ming.le installations on different Ming.le servers pointing to a single LSF I am thinking yes, since really the DSP/DSSO service for Mingle can be uniquely named within LSF. And the security components from LSF are streamed back to the Mingle servers. Anyone ever do this   Thank you.

Hello:   One of my users is having an issue accessing 'My Work' from the Inbasket. We are on Lawson 10, Mingle 11; she is using Chrome to access S3. Any help would be much appreciated! Here's a screenshot of the error:

Does anybody have step by step instructions or can you point me to documentation on upgrading WebSphere from Java 1.7 to Java 1.8 I understand that both LSF and Landmark have to be on the save version. We are LSF 10.0.9 and Landmark 10.1.1.56. Also do we need to upgrade our other systems - MSCM, etc Thank you.

I have an odd question. When I go to HR11 and do a CTRLSHIFTO on the indirect supervisor field, I get presented with the info of 'EMP-SUPER-IND'   When I look at the HR511 conversion file layout, there is no field name called that, but there is a EMP-SUPERVISOR-IND   When I go and look at the Employee table on the DB, the name is EMP-SUPERVISOR-IND.   My question is why does on the portal screen (ctrl shift O), and in Add-Ins, why does the field show it is named EMP-SUPER-IND

In version 9, we horizontally scaled for system issues.  The IOS Cache refresh only worked on the instance where the IOS cache was done.  Later, we found a way to specify the instance so that we could ensure all were refreshed.  In 10, is it the same

We have entered into an affiliation with another, 'non-Lawson' local hospital a few years ago. Since then, we have integrated the HR & Payroll functionality from their legacy HR/PR system into our Lawson system, so that we now utilize a single HR/PR system & process. The only piece we've yet to allow is ESS access for their employees. As such, they do not have access to their paychecks which are being processed out of Lawson. We'd like to address this and create Lawson Security accounts for t...

Good morning, Question on Lawson MSP releases from Infor. How long after GA do most customers wait to install, trusting most of the major bugs have been worked out We are currently on MSP 10.0.5 and are looking to install 10.0.7 in August 2018. 10.0.8 just came out in May 2018. Not sure if enough time has passed yet with the 10.0.8 release to consider installing rather than 10.0.7. Just curious what 'rule-of-thumb' most customers use. Thanks! Ethan

I am very disappointed in the schedule offerings.  I honestly could only find ONE session that even distantly relates to our environment. Mongoose  Cloudsuites  Mingle  Coleman  We use none of these things.   Next to nothing on LSF10 security gotchas, system admin tweaking, LID, etc. It almost seems like this is just a marketing conference.  Anyone else finding the same  I've not attended this conference in many years, so maybe this is just how it is now.  Is this conference just not useful...

I have a ticket open with Infor. I am finding it is not documented anywhere how to view the data loaded into the DT0 area of a form I still don't know how I get to the row of data in the DT0 or ACGLACCT table after hours of research and reading. Our situation: User goes to AC07 User enters the Activity number only User hits Inquire I am trying to secure on the BEG-VAL where ACCT-FIELD = '1-company' or '1*' Rule: If the BEG-VAL is in the user's company control list, they can vi...

On Monday we had to apply a new certificate for Staples since then we are unable to access Amazon Punchout.  We receive the error below.  Has anyone else ran into this problem and if so what did you do to resolve it.  Amazon does not issue a certificate so the one that it is having a problem with is the server certificate and that appears to be good.  I doesn't expire until 2020.  Thank you. 9/12/18 10:07:03:205 EDT] 00000090 ForwardReques I POST result=[Failure opening connection to https://ww...

Hello, I am working on improving our user creation process. I currently have a Powershell script that prompts for some inputs, and then via SSH handles creating the unix account, building the XML files, and running the 'loadusers' utility to create the user with the correct security roles. I have hit two bottlenecks I haven't been able to work around. First issue, I am having trouble finding a documented method for adding the unix account to the 'User Group Definition' in the LAENV utility (la...

I am using AIX/Unix that is making two FTP calls one a simple FTP the other a Secure FTP (SFTP). My script needs to be able to be able to determine if the FTP was successful or not.  Does anyone have any ideas or examples on how I could try this  Right now, I'm just trying to test the connection by pinging the server.  Once I get it to work, I'll expand it to use an FTP command.  This is what I have so far   STATUS=`ping -v -c 1 servername` if [ '$(echo $STATUS | grep -c 'NOT FOUND')' -ge...
