  • Bev EdwardsMSCM Masters According to the Lawson installation guide, there are several Lawson forms that are needed for MSC users. Are all of these screens absolutely necessary? Is there a "bare minimum" required in order to make MPC work?

    • ShirleyHAshleyR Hi Ashley, I'm new to config console and trying to modify some of the screens that we have. Can you suggest any development guides that would help me with reconstructing a page that has a header that contains search parameters. I don't seem to be able to alter them without causing an error. Do you have any tips or reading that would help?

          Time To Rename LawsonGuru ?

          With Lawson S3 and M3 customers adopting integrated Infor products, is it time to expand and rename the LawsonGuru Letter and LawsonGuru.com? I thought it would be fun to ask the community for advice. Here are some ideas: Filed under: Infor, Infor Acquisition

          Inforum 2013

          I just returned from Orlando, having attended Inforum 2013. Last year’s Inforum, which quickly followed the acquisition of Lawson by Infor, was really just a combination of Lawson’s annual conference (CUE) with Infor’s name and logo slapped on for good measure. This year was quite a different story. Starting with the fact that I was actually […]

          Coming Soon to a (Lawson) Support Site Near You!

          Lawson morphs into Infor, continued.  You might have missed this notification, and I haven’t heard much noise regarding it. But I will share my insight. As a practical matter, this simply means that you will soon be using some different tools when you visit the MyLawson.com support site. But I also see a couple of […]

          Infor10 Lawson S3

          I’ve told you before that Lawson’s acquisition by Infor would be interesting. Our first taste of this new combination is Infor10 Lawson S3 (quite a mouthful, isn’t it?). I’ve been attending various product briefings and user groups, perusing the documentation, participating in a lead adopter project, and receiving my usual eyewitness reports and unsubstantiated rumors.  […]

          Inforum 2012

          Following the acquisition by Infor, Lawson’s annual conference (CUE) has morphed into Inforum, which was held this past week in Denver. I didn’t attend, but I watched the video feeds of keynotes, read the executive/analyst briefings, and of course received my usual eyewitness reports and unsubstantiated rumors. In addition, I’ve included some article links at […]
