Hi
I have this data dictionary link https://www.lawsonguru.co...90/tables/index.html 
which explains me about different tables and column names.

Is there any other way from where i can pull in this information? Any certain table or certain database which i can look at where all this information is stored?

Thanks
Vyom

do you have access to LID ? You can try the command 'dbdoc'.
do you have access to the GEN DB? You can query on the tables DOCFILE, DOCSCRFLD, DOCTXT etc.

Thse should be in the GEN database.

Which RDBMS are you using with Lawson? Typically for Oracle, "GEN" is a schema within the database that also hosts the Lawson and Logan schemas. I recommend to check with your local DBAs on this.
