Anyone have a way to add a URL/link or button to Lawson report output&160;We are looking to provide the ability for payment reviewers to run AP150 in non-update and then view the actual&160;invoice images from our images server, while looking through the AP150 output online. Does it require generating the report in a different output format in order for a URL to work The standard text outputs allow for drill around, but we're trying to figure out how to do something similar only point to a U...

Does anyone have a Crystal report that is designed to show an employees 'Old' name, and 'New' name, side by side My goal is to be able to design the report so I can see my current last name and in another column, my prior last name. I already have a report that shows old name and new name, but old name is in a group and new name is in it's own group. Would love if you are willing to share the SQL of a report designed this way. Thank you!

I'm trying to figure out how to link the data in the ENBATREE table of the EFS schema to the report data found in the ERS schema via a SQL query. After analyzing the database tables I have not seen anything from the EFS schema that can be linked to the REPORTID field which is used by the majority of the tables in the ERS schema. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I have been using LBI to published back office reports for years. We recently purchased the full version and I am attempting to setup and burst a crystal report with department data and vice president summaries (the summaries are subreports). We are on LBI version 9.0.4.2. The problem is, it seems to burst almost correctly. I only have access to the departments I am assigned to in the maintain rights but I have access to the vice president summaries who are responsible for the departments....

We have LBI, BOE and an assortment of other distribution tools for our organization. We would like to consolidate to one distribution tool. Currently we use LBI for Lawson Reporting and BOE for EPIC. We are considering using BOE for Lawson, EPIC/ Clarity, Midas and Kronos reporting. However, we have over 600 reports published in LBI and would like to make contact with other Lawson users who are using BOE for Lawson Reports to discuss their satisfaction level with BOE. Thank you. Donna...

We are converting from Crystal Enterprise to LBI for reporting. Crystal Enterprise allows reports to be emailed to an outlook distribution group (i.e. Accounting). This reduces report maintenance because I don't have to do anything when new accounting personnel are hired. The outlook groups are maintained by others. Can LBI reports be emailed to an outlook group If so, how I've assigned email addresses to individual users, but I don't know how to get LBI to email to an outlook group. ...

I have a formula that will print the values in my parameter that accepts multiple parameter values. My user would like to see the parameter descripton field instead. Does anyone have a suggestion for accessing the parameter description value field Thank you. Donna

So, the other evening we upgraded our production LBI Reporting Services instance to 10.3.1.0.68. The next morning we had some issues with specifically parameter containing drillable reports. I opened a call with Infor and was basically told that this was a known issue with SAP, and we (Infor) are waiting for the next SP to see if that will fix the issue(s). Has anyone else took the leap yet to RAS 2011 Are you experiencing the same symptoms I find it hard to believe that we are the only...

I can create a number of reports from Lawson FS and RS but I can't find a table that has the rights for a user. Does a table that has this information exist Example User Department Rights Me 1000 2000 3000

Our organization is planning to buy LBI and before we take the leap forward wanted to find out some information about pricing. Is anyone out there who has recently bought LBI and is willing to share the prices quoted by Infor. I want to compare prices and was looking for any users on LBI who are looking to buy or who have recently purchased itn and are willing to share the price quotes. Thanks in advance, Ruma

I've been asked to get reports and documents setup on an existing dashboard for our supply chain team. I don't have a true IT background and am essentially wondering if I need to get our Lawson IT group involved in this problem. I have reports created in Crystal and they refresh with no problem in there. I've published them to the reporting services but when I click to either View Latest Instance or View with Data Refresh, I get the following error: Error Failed to open the connection. F...

Is there a way to do a mass update for LBI report ownership change I only found an article on mass updates for Smart Notifications.

Is there a way to incorporate GL in the Department Expense Distribution Report so that it ties back to the Operating Expense Currently we are having to run two reports to provide this information. The MM280 and GL290 for the account needed. This report would have all the same field headings as the current MM280 report, but include entity, department, and whether the transaction was an accrual or not. Also, the main difference being year to date instead of just that month.

I am having some issues with a few reports using url's to access subreports. The reports have a URL link to sub report. When the sub report is closed the crystal parameter page opens instead of going back to the base report. I am on LBI 9.0.4.2 and CRAS 12. Has anyone seen this behavior before And did you find a workaround or solution Lawson was unable to replicate the issue.

Has anyone been successful in bursting an LBI report that contains subreports I have isolated the issue to when I add the bursting feature to the scheduled LBI report, I receive a prompt to enter the UserID and Password. I know this issue is isolated to bursting because when I shut the bursting off, the report opens just fine. The field the report is burst on (the manager's User ID) is in the 'main' report. I reviewed this report with Lawson support yesterday and they suggested I add the User I...

Is there a way to export a report with a filename.date format Where the date is grabbed from the system time

Hi, I'm wondering what would be the equaivalent to the Date Stampof PA Actions in the PERSACTION table There are several date fields in there but none of them seem to reference the date that the transaction was entered. Logically, it seems that there would be one data field that contained the same date (since we run a PA100 on a nightly basis), but all the date field have a variety of dates or no date. Does this data field exist

Hi, Is it possible to schedule an LBI report that requires the end-user to enter a parameter My objective is to allow a manager to view only the records he or she needs to see by entering their User ID as the parameter to view their data on the report. This needs to be scheduled in LBI because we cannot bump up against Production. Furthermore, bursting this report by manager (which was my first approach) is not working for reasons that Lawson Support hasn't been able to diagnose yet. (The ...

Hi, We have many LBI reports that are scheduled. Is it possible to limit the number of saved instances in the HISTORY section of the LBI report For example, Customer A want an LBI report scheduled to run every Monday. They only want to have the last 6 scheduled reports saved. Is there a way to 'purge' reports older than this without going in and manually deleting them I ask because an issue recently came up where server space is almost at max capacity and the thought is that these save...

Hello! We have the LT101 Supervisor Errors report upload to Crystal via OLEDB connection. The report runs fine in portal but in LBI it does not include those errors where the supervisor field is missing. Is this a case of missing XML tags If so how would i get the tags added Thanks for your help, Chris

We have had numerous occasions when Crystal Reports inside LRS have all of a sudden started prompting for an OLEDB username and password. We can input the porper username and password into the report and it will work just fine for that one time, but will keeep asking for the username and password each and every time that it's run. We even had some report instances that were run overnight in our history today that would prompt for the OLEDB username and pasword. Does anyone know how LRS uses th...

Hi, We are using LBI version 10.3 and I am looking for RS table where the report runtime is stored.

Hi, I am using Crystal reports 2008. My Crystal report has 3 dynamic parameters. This allows the end user to select 3 separate critera (Job Class, Payroll Year, and Provider Comp Plan). In Crystal, the end-user can choose one or many job classes, one or many years, and one or of many Provider Comp Plans. When I publish this report to LBI, my parameters do not display the 'left' 'right' boxes that allow you move data from the left to the right that you want to include. My question is, why are...
