I am attempting to create a PO via PO23.1 in my PF.  I would prefer to do it this way as opposed to running a PO100 job from PF.  My problem is that I have to inquire on the PO23.1 before doing an 'Add'.  I have read some posts about this same problem on different forms and have not been able to get mine to work.  On one it said that you had to have _EVT=CHG.  I've tried that and _EVT=ADD.  I also saw where you had to have the hidden key, _HK, set.  I also tried that but am not sure I have all t...

I am trying to figure out how I can intercept the action being taken on an inbasket workunit and perform a test.  If the test = true the action will be taken, if false show an alert.  Similar to what you would do in design studio with OnBeforeTransaction.

Hello, We are upgrading from V9 to V10. I am trying to call a Landmark service using AGS call over WFWK form. Service on the Landmark side is enabled and I am passing all the required parameters (Criteria, Variables and Prodline). When I checked the LPS log under $GENDIR/bpm/, the last message in the log is 'isLPSServiceExistAndEnabled(), sending socket message for isLPSServiceExistAndEnabled'. I assume that there is no response back to the S3 server for the socket call. I checked the BPM servi...

I cannot find anything on the Infor site that would help us understand what all the bells and whistles in the InBasket do.  It's taking us a while to play around with each and I'm hoping someone out there has some kind of documentation. So far Infor helpdesk has not come up with anything.

We are trying to create emails to send to supervisors for their upcoming reviews.  I have the query written to gather the data to send and have it is a action node in a message, but I am have trouble determining the best way to parse that data and send to the supervisors their rows of data. Should I be putting this information into a file and parsing that way, should I be able to loop through the email node with using the variables.   I am self taught and have been reading the manuals, reading f...

Using V10 IPA is it possible to check if a network directory exits If the directory does not exist then create the directory on the network drive

This is a new instance. Win/SQL. LSF 10.0.9, Landmark 10.1.1.51. LSF and Landmark have been running for a few months. IPA's have been installed, configured and running OK. Trying to schedule an existing IPA flow using Rich Client. The IPA runs fine and OK for a manual schedule meaning 'Start'. It runs fine in IPD too. The issue is that if I create a schedule in My Actions, Schedule for any type of periodic schedule for the IPA to run (one a day, once a week, etc.) it fails to launch. I'm log...

Hello, When we issue a system command, the response is completely unreadable regardless of if the process completes or it fails. This is especially an issue with our FTP manager. After IPA creates a file, our FTP client on the iSeries performs the FTP. The FTP manager needs the file to be generated with a CCSID of 37. In the attributes, it is shown as 37 but when the hex of the file is examined, the true CCSID is not 37. I noticed in our process flow logs that this occurs for all system comman...

We are currently working on a project in which a customer has the ability to pay their invoices via credit card.  On some occasions, the amount of credits could be the same or exceed the amount of invoices, resulting in a zero dollar payment or a negative payment.  In the Lawson EFT world (AR115), Lawson creates a debit memo to offset the amount of the negative payment and then interjects a zero dollar payment into the payment table. Has anyone had to create a similar situation and if so, how d...

We are getting ready to go live in the cloud on 9/22/17.  Our grid was tuned in the spring and our process flow performance  was better in the cloud than our on-prem version as of mid summer.  Now, all of the sudden, our performance has gotten worse.  Flows are running anywhere from 30 minutes more to 4 hours longer than they previously were in the cloud.  We are not getting anywhere with our project team and the support personnel they have assigned.  At this point the answer has been 'hmmm I...

Is anyone using Control-M (a cross-application and cross-platform workload management tool) with Lawson and/or Landmark If not Control-M, any other workload management tool Thanks in advance, Kyle Jorgensen

In Po30, when the quantity received is greater than what was ordered, it should create a work unit with the 'has buyer message'. The buyer message is created but it does not trigger a work unit through 'PO Overshipment' Service definition. What is my problem   Thanks

Hello,  I'm very new to lawson. I started this job last month and we're converting from v9 to v10. Still getting to figure out all the terms.  I've been tasked to convert our old process flow in v9 to the v10 Infor Process Designer(IPD) I created a test processflow that just sends email. I could not get this to work. I always get an authentication failure. Our sysadmin has supplied me with the username/password for the smtp server. There is an online tool called 'Process Server Administrato...

Hello All, I have a flow that using SQL to produce an output to CSV file but the vendor keeps having an issue of opening it. In order to successfully open it, he has to rename the file extension from .csv to .xlsx each time. Does any know if IPA can produce an output excel file to .xlsx instead of .csv file Can you please advise Thanks, Han

Apologies for the very basic question;   We're migrating from v9 to v10. I need to have a process flow execute when a user changes their address in ESS.  I'm just assuming that the EMSSAddrChg service is the key to running the process flow (that's what I saw in our v9 bpm/menu.do.) I made a very simple processflow that just sends an email and upload it.  Then on Process Server Administrator > Configuration > Service Definitions Double click on EMSSAddrChg Click the create icon,  pi...

In ISA, on the Landmark Tab, there is an Account Disabled checkbox. I can't find a means of setting this flag with a Landmark Transaction Activity Node. I’ve tried setting the IsActorDisabled and AccountLockout.IsAccountDisabled Flags for the Actor and tried doing a ‘DisableActor’ update, but the checkbox still is unchecked. Then, I thought that maybe the flag is a reflection of the DELETEFLAG value (off for 0, on when the DeleteFlag has a non-zero value) in the GEN ACTOR Table, but neither th...

Our version of Landmark is 10.0.  We will be engaging ICS to update our environment.  The suggested version of Landmark is 10.1.1.42.  I remember about a year ago there was a webinar about the various CUs and the impact on IPA.  I believe CU 48 had many performance enhancements.  When I look at the Infor technology blogs, it appears that the webinar is no longer there as Landmark version 11 is available for LSF 10.0.9.  Does anyone have any suggested CUs  Would going to Landmark 11 be in our be...

I have tried to search for the answer prior to asking this but unfortunately when trying to go past page one of posts i'm getting an error. I'm sure this is relatively simple answer. When using SysCommand node how can i reference a landmark command like dbupdatelobs and wait for it to finish   Thanks Michael

I'm trying to run a web API, using the PATCH method, that our web dev team developed.  I set up a webrun node with the information that I needed but it's returning an 'Invalid HTTP method: PATCH' error.  I tried using 'POST' with 'X-HTTP-Method-Override: PATCH' in the Post String with no luck.  Has anyone had any experience with this  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Hello- I am looking for some help on the S3 Adapter node in IPA.  The manual says to run process FormFldLoad to get the fields loaded in rich client for my form.  Does anyone know where to find it or how to run it  I found a rich client form that has some of the S3 form fields built out.  Do I have to add all my fields manually  Thanks!

Process flows are uploaded to the server in a few different PFI tables. I have a flow that will query those tables, create a summary document, email the developer, etc. It's easy enough to schedule my process flow to run every hour to look for any other flow that was uploaded in the past hour.  However, I would love to be able to trigger my flow based on a new record in these PFI tables (new flow having been uploaded). Anyone aware that this is even possible

Hello,   Has anyone implemented the AddAttachment that's supposedly replacing writeattachrec.exe SERVER: PORT/lawson-ios/action/AddAttachment Lawson documentation has this as an example POST data but I haven't been able to get it to work. I'm looking to add Invoice comments to APINVOICE from our Landmark Financial suite.   Attaching a KB article (1937446) that talks about the replacements for writeattach   Thanks, Nabil

Hi All,   I'm running a SQL query and doing a count which should determine how the flow would proceed, however, when I try to pull the Count on my Branch Node, I'm failing to see it.   Any ideas why this is happening  Here is the SQL SELECT PAY.APCOMPANY ,PAY.INVOICE ,PAY.VENDOR ,PAY.INVOICEURL ,to_char(cast(PAY.USTIMESTAMP as date),'DD-MM-YYYY') as UPDATE_TIME ,PAY.CREATIONDATE ,PAY.USTIMESTAMP ,API.INVOICE ,API.L_INDEX ,URL.L_INDEX ,COUNT(URL.L_INDEX) FROM devapia.PA...

IPD v11.0.1.43,  single tenant, cloud, SQL Server.  Business has about a dozen or so bonus programs.  Each program has different criteria, run dates/frequencies, and payout amounts.  We're attempting to use a single flow to create the EmployeeSpecialIncentivePayout (ESIP) business class records for the desired program.  We figure that all the ESIP entries can be done in one Landmark transaction node, and all that we need to vary is the SQL that runs to get the people and payouts and other ...
