    Is anyone aware of any “add on” software that could be used for additional hierarchy functionality within Lawson?

    I know we were going to gain this additional functionality within LTM; but since that project was placed on hold at our organization; wasn't sure if there were other ther vendors in this area that have something that could be used as an interim solution?  Or someone has come up with a creative solution within S3.

     

    Example of additional functionality needed:

    1. Ability for dotted line relatioships

    2. Ability to have multiple supervisors for an employee

    3. Ability to see direct reports in multiple positions (not just primary)

    4. Org chart hierarchy presentation functionality (view online and print org charts)

    5. Department hierarchy/responsibility vs Supervisory hierarchy

     

    Also, if someone has already developed crystal reports which would display direct report listings for a supervisor that they could see their own direct reports or all reports and would be willing to share - I would be most appreciative!

     

    Thank you

      I don't share or sell any of these as true products, but I have solved a number of these shortcomeings for various clients over the years using a variety of techniques:
      1. Dynamic employee groups based on process level, department, position, etc. to group employees into supervised groups, and a second (manual) employee group for each that contains their "supervisor".
      2. various EMSS code modifications and process flow to route approvals differently than delivered in standard Lawson
      3. ASP.NET and / or sharepoint web parts exposing different org chart formats and contents
      Please let me know if you have specific questions and/or would like to discuss further.
      Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!
