Welcome to the latest issue of The LawsonGuru Letter, a free newsletter providing provocative commentary on issues important to the Lawson Software community.  The LawsonGuru Letter is published by-and is solely the opinion of-John Henley of Decision Analytics.
 
Accounts Payable Aging Report
is there a report in Lawson that I could run that shows me an AP Aging? Currently I use AP136 to show me what my AP for the month is. Read More...
 
Lawson Workforce Management

Smart Office Installation
This is my first project and I am going to attempt to install Smart office on a Server. I've downloaded the install guide from Lawson's website but it seems I need to install Websphere on the server before I install anything else. Is this true? Does anyone have any suggestions before I begin installing? Please give me any advise you have or knowledge. Anything and everything can help. Thanks!  Read More...
 
MSCM Receiving and Delivery
Does anyone have some easy to understand instructions on getting R&D off the ground?  Read More...
 
Thanks for joining us this month. 
 
Sincerely,

Even if you have used SQL Server before, there are slight differences in these features compared to earlier SQL Server versions. These differences might cause changed behavior in your own applications.
