Anybody know how, or if, the size of the DS&160;palette screen&160;can be&160;increased&160; Since a COBOL screen is limited to 80 characters, you have the same limitation &160;whether doing 'quick paint' or 'blank palette'.&160; I've tried changing the width parameter in the first line '<form> TOKEN=...' but that didn't work.&160; I'm trying to paint a screen that will be 100 characters wide.

I'm new to Design Studio, so please bear with me. Currently, we use Manager Self-Service as a view only application. However, we want to implement the MSS personnel actions as soon as possible. My plan is to start with the termination personnel action. Unfortunately, the delivered functionality of MSS does not meet our needs, so to make a long story short I need to create a termination screen. My plan is to use Design Studio and build it off of the PA52 screen, which I have already started. My q...

Now I am hearing from 2 of my users that whe they open the inbasket item the only information that populates i...

Hi All: Searched for quite some time with no luck, so I&160;figured I would ask. Posting an AGS call and encountering a soft warning:&160;Message=Warning-Date Invalid; OK&160;to continue Executing this via the Lawson forms, we click OK and voila, the transaction submits. Has anyone encountered this and worked around it through some bypass warning parameter with the AGS parameters ON a side note, is there a listing of all possible AGS parameters somewhere&160;I&160;could not find that...

We are upgrading to Design Studio 9 and I'm trying to alter the Design Studio customizations we had on AP20.1. I have downloaded the latest documentation from Lawson but didn't find a definitive list of Javascript changes. I'm putting one piece of Javascript into the form at a time and get an error on each piece. Here's where I'm starting so that pay vendor doesn't default to the prior invoice's pay vendor: function FORM_OnBeforeTransaction(fc) { &160;if (fc=='A') &160;{ &160;&160; var ...

Hi, I'm quiet new to Design Studio developing. I wanted to ask a question before I waiste too much time trying to create a Portal Page that will not serve its role...

Could this be done in Portal Designer, using a search box, not clicking on ...

Without using Process Flow, is there a way to execute some sort of script that when a user adds a record on RQ10, that I could take the form Req Number generated by the add, and then populate&160;that&160;value&160;into PO User Field&160;5 and then execute a change request to save the update&160; I know I can use lawForm.getDataValue('RQH-REQ-NUMBER'); and I'm fairly certain I can figure out how to set the RQH-PO-USER-FLD-5 (whatever the command is) to that value. Just not sure how to e...

Not sure if this is the right forum but we're upgrading to Lawson 9 and I&160;have an AP20.1 form that tests fine on the dev server. When we copy to production server, and Rebuild Forms Index, it doesn't work. When you enter your invoice and line item detail and click Add, it clears out some fields and gives an error message at the bottom 'Account information required' I've searched Lawson's KB and can't find this specific issue. Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I have a Crystal report with drill around links.&160; The links contain a hard coded string with the Lawson web server included.&160; I'd like to get the host in Design Studio and pass it as a variable so I can publish the report on either test or production server and have the drill to the correct server. How do I get the host variable from within Design Studio

I added a fairly simple script to AP10.1 that upon hitting inquire, using an 'Form_OnAfterTransaction', looks at the User Fields tab, and if there's data on the first User Fields field, adds an asterisk to a field on the Main tab. This thing works great when I log on. I go to ap10, look at a vendor record with data on the user fields, inquire, i get the *. I go to a different vendor record that doesn't have user field data, inquire, * goes away. I've also tried browsing to a couple random scre...
