Occasionally, for no reason that's apparent to me, our Dolphin 9550's lose the server address in the MSMC application. Usually the material handler doesn't find out until they have to upload their counts and they get 'A network connection is needed...' message. The only way to fix this is to go into the settings and re-add the address but they have to exit the par counting area to get there thus losing all they have counted. Does anyone know what causes this Is it a defect in the 9550 or the...

I work doe supply chain management in a hospital using Lawson 9.0.1.9.153. I have an item with stock on hand. If I drill down on the item I see my on hand amount, allocated amounts, on order amounts, etc. However, if I drill down on the Preferred Bin there is nothing there. IC41 doesn't show the item & stock on hand (It skips to the next item). This is causing issues releasing requisitions. WH32.2 requires me to 'walkthru' to WH33 but there is NO bin QTY to select! I get an error. Is th...

Cycle Counting....   I am developing the cycle counting procedure for the hospital.  I would like to use Lawson as much as I can, as we use it for everything else.  My thought process is:  if Lawson can process cycle counts, let's use it.  My problem is I am not familiar enough with Lawson.  If we can't use Lawson effectively, then I have an Excel sheet to use as plan B. We have our items setup as ABC classification.  A is counted every month.  B is counted every quarter.  C is counted every ...

How would we set up our PO01.4 if we want pricing to be picked like this:   Try to find a PO25 agreement for the vendor listed in IC12.2    If multiple agreements for that same vendor exist, pick the one set to a higher priority 2. If no PO25 agreement exists for the IC12.2 specified vendor, see if a PO25 agreement exists for any other vendor If multiple agreements exist, pick the vendor agreement with the lowest price.   Right now, we have it set up under the 'Ven...

RQC non stock templates.  I am trying to change an item that was once an inventory item to non-stock. I inactivated the item in IC12 but the requestor now get an error message in RQC, when selecting that item – “the item you selected is not valid based on your requester set up”. How can I set this up without activating the item in IC12 again  I left the From Location blank thinking that would do it.  Still getting error message Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

We have a Surgery Center located on our campus and we would like to have their products shipped directly to them instead of coming through our main Receiving dock.  I've tested several scenarios and nothing seems to be working for me.  I must be missing something very simple, can anyone help direct me down the right path  We are on Lawson version 10.0.7.0.

Looking to see if anyone is using an enhanced requesting portal outside of RQC that plays nice with Lawson.  We're looking at options that would provide a better user experience than what RQC provides.

Hey All, I've been given access to IC99.1-.6 and PO99.1-.9 to help with some RNI issues.     Does anyone have any documentation written for these screens they wouldn't mind sharing  I'd hate to have to slog through all this if its been done before.  A few searches didn't yield much in the subject.     Thanks, Justin

Does anyone have any insight as to why when a req is entered and released that it splits into multiple purchase orders  Is there a fix

To preface this, I’m completely new to the Infor / Lawson system when it comes to Replenishment & Inventory Control – the company I used to work for utilized a custom version of FilemakerPro. Our company is trying to build an Inventory Control system from the ground up, and I’ve been tasked with helping. We’re a bank, so we have several ship to locations, cost centers and general ledgers that are associated within our system. My problem is that when I make an issue in IC21, it’s not reflected ...

Does anyone have experience with both of these jobs and what was your run times by comparison  For us, IC524 runs about 2.5 times longer.  Not sure if this is expected and running as it should be.  We need to run with no date range and audit=N.  I appreciate your help.  Thanks.

Hello - We have a newer hospital that has no available space for a perpetual inventory location, but we have a few Supply Rooms that are set up as PAR locations in Lawson.  Is it possible for these Supply Rooms to be used to replenish other PAR locations via MSCM  Seems possible with some IC02 & IC12 work, but if someone could speak from experience I'd appreciate it!

Hello All...   I am looking for a way in Lawson I can see users' activities.  Specifically, when closing out requisitions in WH32 or issuing out items with IC21.  With the help of this great group of people, PO58 shows me a user's receipts.  I'm looking for the same thing but with WH and IC transactions. I appreciate everyone's time and help! Thx

Our organization has a main hospital and a smaller one which we acquired. The main hospital has Req Self Service working for the various departments to order (or requisition) product from the storeroom. Every hour the requisitions are processed and pick tickets printed for the storeroom staff to deliver. The smaller hospital was acquired after all this Req stuff was set up and the departments there get their product from the storeroom but however they do it, it's a fully manual process. I was...

Hello, we have a report that shows us the items with a 0 on hand balance. Is there a table that records this so we could go back a month and see what items hit 0 on hand and what date Or does this have to be a current status

Hi Lawson Team, I would like to ask if anyone knows how to the system calculates the average leadtime in IC12 if the control code is 'R' 'need review'. I know that if the system control code is 'S' 'system calculated' it takes the average of previous and last leadtime but for 'R', I'm not able to figure out, please help. In IC226 it says that if the average leadtime is greater than 50 and the item was set for review then it will recalculate and will give a new average cost but not base on the...

Does anyone know who to pull the transfers between companies/ locations entered in IC21 Is there a report that can be ran

Hi All,   I'm a fairly novice Contract Management user.  I noticed that we can create 'Categories' via Contract Administrator-General Setup-Categories.   I'm looking to create a category for each of our product categories and then tag each individual contract to its category.  The goal is to be able to run a quick and easy report based on category in order to see where standardization opportunities arise.  While creating the category is easy, I cannot locate anywhere on the contract itself t...

Is anyone using Lawson S3 or MSCM to capture UDI information for MU3 compliance  If so, where are you capturing that data or its components - IC, MSCM, POU  Trying to figure out where that data is stored or could be stored.

Greetings, How do I look up to see if a Lawson exists when given the manufacturer number without running a full item master report Thank you

Hi, my company has several warehouses in different areas. Every warehouse manages its inventory and purchasing by itself. Some of our products become obsolete for some warehouses but they still can be sold from another warehouse.  We have defined obsoletes as items with no sale for more than one year for every warehouse (it means every warehouse may have different obsoletes) and run a report of obsoletes every month. Right now there are hundreds of items. My question is if there is an option ...

Hello - Please see request 28120 to review & hopefully support - Functionality in MSCM/RAD to create a delivery ticket per box for PO's with multiple boxes.  Business reasons listed below.  Thanks much! Let’s say we have 1 PO with 5 boxes making up the items ordered on the PO. In current state, we can see that 5 boxes were dock logged, but the scanning by box ends there. If we only get one delivery ticket, how can we be sure all 5 boxes stayed together & we’re delivered 1 at the same time, & ...

I have a user that wants a report to print out any time that they pick for par in MSCM MPC. I can't think of any way to do this except for a customization - that isn't really part of our scope for one user. Does anyone know if this is a possibility    I informed her that she could see recent requests in RQC but that doesn't work for her.

We are trying to figure  out a way to run our IC142 where we can have  specific vendors only create requisitions once a week on specific days.  We have a few vendors that want a once a week PO for our new service center, so running an IC142 wide open will not work, but then we have other vendors that will accept a PO daily.  We were looking at using the 'Vendor Attribute list', but not sure if this is the best route, or if there is another option that has works better.  Any suggestions would be ...

In our company, we store products on racks. Bottom shelves are for picking (let's call them picking area) and top shelves are for storing and replenishing of the bottom shelves (let's call them store area). Only bottom shelves have a number of a location, all products sitting on top shelves are located in the system on the same location that belongs to an item in picking area.  For example: an item 205.206 is placed on a location FB12A01 in picking area. We have 2 boxes there and another 5 pall...
