HI All,    I'm in IT and investigating installing RAD into our current Lawson S3 environment. We are a AIX shop with Lawson Fin, Procurement, MSCM (9.0.1.2.3), Fax Int currently on Apps version 9.0.1.9 and Env 9.0.1.11 .   I have reviewed the post here about RAD, but they are older and want to know if anyone has installed this with newer Info/Lawson instructions and the business area setups (how hard is that).

I am in the process of conducting YE physical inventory count. I ran an IC233 report to identify the current inventory value. I then counted the inventory and submitted the variances (IC175). At the bottom of the IC175 report the 'Location total dollar frozen' is different than the IC233 total inventory dollar amount. Shouldn't these two total dollar amounts be the same

Hi - is there a report that pulls in a company specific item master but also brings in the cost of the item IC211 brings in last cost but what if there is no last cost but we have a PO25 for that item, how can that be brought in What if we want to see the cost at the default buy uom instead of the each  Does Lawson have some kind canned report for this already Seems kind of ridiculous if it doesn't, even the most basic systems do.

We are starting to process 856's with MA531 and then printing delivery tickets with PO134. The issue we are having is there is no delivery bar codes on the PO134 tickets. Any idea how to get the bar codes to print Alternatively, what table holds the tracking number ~Thanks

We have MSCM installed on a windows server and Lawson Procurement on Unix. MSCM needs access to LAWDIR/[productline]/work/ARRIVAL/. Since Unix and windows systems cannot communicate without additional help, what would be the easiest and more efficient way to make this happen and does anybody have script that would like to share with me Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We are using MSCM and we have requesting locations that were automatically brought in from Lawson that are not necessarily the deliver to location. How do you handle this situation  when using RAD and HH's for delivery We are using Honeywell 99ex's(formerly Dolphin) with wifi and cell data access.  Do you create separate deliver to locations just in MSCM  Any help is appreciated

Anybody out there using RAD with MSCM where their HH's do not have access all the time to the server due to bad or no cell  service during delivery How do you handle this within MSCM

We would like to audit the PO's where they were received all, is anyone auditing these     Thanks Sheri

We are getting ready to start Pass I - data validation for Version 10 supply chain. We hope to go live in April 2017. Consultations suggested that we clean PO25.1 vendor agreements. We had recently changed vendors on many contracts and I have large amount of closed agreements.   I deleted many contracts in test using PO300. It seems that pricing is pulling as it is setup in PO01.4 My question is does it leave orphan records Do I have anything to worry about Any words of wisdom for tes...

I am trying to build a report to use with the MSCM handheld scanner. We receive a daily hard copy report from EPIC that has surgeon preference items on it to be ordered. The report does have the Lawson number on it but when I try to reformat as a barcode the handheld does not scan. I suspect there are start and stop characters along with the checksum missing. When I enter the item number on an online barcode generator the barcodes work. Am I missing something Do we need to get one of the 'addin...

We are working for a large client and converting open POs and are working to bring over line source records.  I have a query built but get an error message.  'Purchase Order Line Not Found'     Any suggestions  Thanks so much

What form is used to set the fill/kill option for an item

Hi everyone - we're doing physical inventory and are having some issues with counting. We're getting complaints from facilities that IC72 is defaulting all UOMs to the EA and staff is having a hard time counting by that unit of measure.  Is there anyway to modify the IC270 to either default the UOM to show the default transaction UOM set up in IC12 or include the items full packaging string    Follow up question, when you guys do physical inventory do you have staff enter counts directly int...

We're trying to figure out the best way to give some par location (IC81) owners the ability to change their shelf locations.  They can change the par level on the handheld but I don't think they can change the shelf location.  We would like to limit their change access to just  the prefer-bin field but also don't think that's possible.  What are others doing  We do not want to give them complete change access due to the risk of them really messing some stuff up.  Any advice on what has worked f...

Hello - Is it possible to generate a physical inventory count for par locations The count would be similar to process ICFL.5 for physical inventory locations. (Lawson 10.0.5.0.525 Apps 10.0.3) Thanks.

Today we ran the IC175 in non update mode until ready to update  next step we selected the Update in  Y  mode to move forward and then  processed the end of inventory  IC133 the inventory  was the same  as the begining iC233 - The inventory counts apparently did not update (not sure what happened or how to correct without doing the  inventory all over )    The freeze was then deleted    any suggestions or comments will be appreciated

This seemingly simple error is giving me a huge headache.    A user notified me stating they were having issues counting by the BX in IC72. I checked IC11 and noticed that the tracking flag was on for both BX and EA. When I tried to remove the tracking flag on BX, it stated that the UOM was used by item locations.   Ok. No big deal. Just run an IC12 across all companies and change the UOM fields.   So I did that. All locations default src and transaction UOMs were modified from BX to EA (i...

I have  a tattered list of all Lawson forms and sub-forms from 2008 that I want to reprint but have lost my excel file that listed them all. Does anyone have a handy reference file they could share   Thanks, Rob Carignan Mercy Hospital Portland, Maine

Hello, Does anyone have an idea on how I can get a report that would list adjustments like: AJ, CA cost adjustments, CR customer returns, IS issues, IT issue transfers, RA purchasing receipt adjustments, RC inventory receipts, RJ rejected POs, RR requisition returns, and RT receipt transfers Would this require several reports to be ran to get a tally I am trying to create metrics that would determine inventory adjustments and the type. We have some 'sloppy' transactions, such as received the...

Does anyone here do anything to customize the inventory POs    We have a inventory location that has a room within their room - the POs just all go out from the location - it's essentially a large bin group - so when the pallets come in, they are a pain to put away.  The PO doesn't sort by bin or bin group. Has anyone made it do so  Or somehow otherwise identify PO lines without creating a separate inventory loc on IC02

Hi everyone, Really confused here. Right now if multiple requisitions come in for the same item, PO100 will place that item on the same PO but keep them separated so we can see the sources for easy delivery. However, is it possible to combine the lines and still have the put away tickets separated  For example, let's say we have an item with a packaging string EA 1/BX 10. Two par locations(A and B) have a par of 5 EA because it's a slow mover but it just so happens that both floors ran out at...

Hello, I am wondering if anyone has any notes on what each Par Count Status means.  The one I am mostly looking for is 'Cancelled.'  If I remember right this status means that the item is already awaiting Pick for Par so MSCM will cancel the line.  Any input is greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

We are looking for third party solutions that integrate well with Lawson to automate our AP invoice process. This would include OCR to capture invoice data directly into Lawson AP and an approval process.  We are also looking for a vendor (ideally the same one) that processes employee expenses through a portal also. We have a couple in mind Concur, Lexmark or Ascend. Does anybody have any experience with an intergation of this type that they are willing to share

Looking to see if there's a better way to load non-stock items to IC81.  Currently non-stocks are loaded in IC11 with both EA and BX for example.  With EA being the stock UOM and BX being the BUOM for example.  This requires us to pull out all of the items and assign a tracking flag of 2 to the BUOM.  This allows the item to be loaded to IC81 but also allows users to change the UOM since both are valid UOM.  We're hoping there's a better way to do this.  Is there

We have an 'interface', really a batch file, to Cerner/Surginet that was created in 2003 and never update. I am working through what was created, so we can update it to work with our current versions and practices. The interface relied on changes to the ICAUDIT table to send data to Surginet. Somewhere along the way, it stopped sending pricing updates. It looks like at one time ICAUDIT was updated by PO25.6. Does anyone know when that changed (what version)   I found the following on laws...
