    Is there a way to connect to a out data source in Design Studio S3. For example, I'm trying to display a value that is on a different db server. If not, how can I calculate a value and have it display? Thanks.

      There are really only two ways to do that:
      1. Make the database table/view visible to Lawson via dbdef as a custom table/view and add a DME call.
      2. Wrap the database query in a web application, and make an http call to retrieve desired value.
      Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!
