IA10 values not visible in scorecard    

Started By  Bob Beverley
I'm using MS Analytic Services. I have YTD member names in GLDM.5 (and Qtr YTD in GLDM.6) but those elements are not available in my cube - neither in Analysis Manager nor in Scorecard. I get my current period and current qtr elements, but nothing for YTD. GSC hasn't been any help to this point. We've analyzed IA150 and these vales appear to be handled by some java scripting (which is way out of my league) but we're not seeing any issues there. I'm wondering if somehow ytd values just are...

Data source override in LBI    

Started By  Troy
We are trying to create a datasource in LBI that will connect to a non-Lawson database that is on a server outside our network. We have been able to create a NAT'd IP for the server and connect to it with Crystal, but we get errors or a login prompt when we try to do it in LBI unless we change the Data Source to the Nat'd IP before it is published. The issue is the client does not have access to the server to change the Data Source themselves after publishing. They can't use the NAT when publ...

Display the user ID iin report headings    

Started By  mikeP
Does anyone know a way to display the user's Lawson acount name in reports run from an LBI server This can be handy in a report heading when you're trying to determine the origins of a printed page at a later date. There a CR function called CurrentCEUserName, but it only works with Crystal Enterprise, which our provider doesn't have. I was hoping someone else may have developed a workaround for this. Thanks, Mike .

Started By  Katfra
Hello, I'm trying to create a report in Crystal using an RW Report i've already created. However, i was given some literature stating before doing this that i need to eliminate my totals and use my totals as headings. So with this being said, do i need to copy my current report and create it backwards. Net income as being my first line followed by my other totals I'm not sure how to go about this the right way. My intention going foward is to build the reports right out of crytal bu...

My friends: I am trying to get XI R3 (AKA 2008) on to our test server. I have no problem applying both along side XI R2 SPx.

OLE DB substitute?    

Started By  Russell Spreeman
My organization wants to use Lawson Report Writer reports as the data source for Crystal Reports - which I have read about doing here and in the Lawson Knowledge Base. However we don't have Lawson LBI and they no longer sell the OLE DB connector as a separate item. If I go into Crystal Reports I see that I can add an OLE DB connector for Lawson but it does not give me any way to specify the Report Writer reports as a data source - only tables and such. Is there a way to duplicate what the Law...

ACTRANS and IC Transactions    

Started By  Carl Gifford
We are trying to create a Crystal report that will inlcude the IC (Inventory Control) details for transactions posted to ACTRANS. It does not appear that there is any link (object ID, etc) from ACTRANS to ICTRANS so we have been trying to link to MMDIST. The trouble is the the indexes on MMDIST do not inlcude AC items and the other indexes have items that are not inlcuded in the ACTRANS table. If we do not use the indexes, the performance is terrible (as MMDIST is a huge table) A...

Leveraging RAS without loggin in to lbi    

Started By  mjcindc
This might be a little off topic, but let's see what you all think. We've got a data collection website that really has nothing to do with Lawson. Since we already have staff with SQL, Crystal Reports and LBI skills, I'd like to figure out how to leverage them and LBI or just the RAS service to provide reports to users of the non-lawson system without them having to log in to LBI. They don't have user names for LBI and the business owners of this other system are not very keen on making users...
