    In Lawson portal 3.x we were able to add the tag <> to the default.xml file so that when a user logged into portail it displayed the product line they were using.

    How/where can this change be made in portal 9.x

      There's a Role Manager option in LSF9 for creating and changing the Welcom message, but I haven't seen a way to impact the default role using it. However, there's always the old-fashioned way of changing it directly.

      I'd be careful about changing the default.xml as it's the basis for all of the other role files in the Role manager, but here's what I did (since I can't even follow by own advice)

      In LSF 9.0, the role files, including the default.xml file, reside in $LAWDIR/persistdata/lawson/portal/data/roles

      I think the name fields available are <>, <> and <>. I modified it to include the Product Line, which is <>. The << >> are required. The Role manager has a drop down that includes all of the variables

        That worked liked a charm

        Had to try a couple of times on the tag name until I got it right - ended up being ProductLine
