GL20-Accounting Unit/Account Code Combinations

August 8, 2016, 9:59 pm
$

We have several accounting units that are mapped to various GL Account codes per GL20.2. We have one accounting unit for balance sheet transactions, but we discovered several income statement accounts with exists as "yes" on the GL20.2 for the balance sheet unit. We don't want individuals accidently coding transactions improperly so we need to turn the exists from "yes" to "no." We have shut off dynamic account generation to prevent the exists from being turned automatically to "yes" if someone keys the wrong GL account code.

I also built an upload file to do one mass change for all the bad combinations (we have about 2000). The problem is when I upload, if the bad combination has any ANY activity, even though the balance is now "0," I get the following message. "cannot delete; account has actual activity." Is there any way to turn the exists from "yes" to "no" since we made the adjustment so the combination balance in the ledger is now "0," or are we stuck with these active bad combinations in our ledger that we will have to manually monitor?

Thanks!

We have MSCM installed on a windows server and Lawson Procurement on Unix. MSCM needs access to %LAWDIR%/[productline]/work/ARRIVAL/. Since Unix and windows systems cannot communicate without additional help, what would be the easiest and more efficient way to make this happen and does anybody have script that would like to share with me? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Processing Vendor Refunds

November 11, 2016, 12:13 am

I am trying to figure out a way to recognize vendor refunds through the AP module so that, when I process 1099s, the amount paid to the vendor shows up correctly. Historically, we just booked the refunds manually in the GL module, but obviously this does not reduce the amount reported on 1099s. The subsequent process was to create offsetting credit and debit memos in AP and a cash transaction in CB, but again the offsetting credit and debit memos do not reduce the reported 1099 amount.

Ultimately, I think there has to be a way to link a CB entry to an AP entry so that the transactions reconcile and the 1099 amount reported is also reduced. The issue I am running into now is that any transaction code that can be applied to an AP invoice automatically involves a cash outflow, but I need to have a cash inflow since the vendor refunds are money coming in.

Does anybody have any insight into how to accomplish this?

Thanks,

Radu

How to Post Gl65 Transactions with Different Journal Headers

We are currently using GL65 and GL165 to post transactions from our revenue system into lawson. The transactions are all imported into GL65 with descriptions but when we post the transactions through GL165 the GLTRANS description only says "upload". Is there a way to change this so it maintains the description from the original GL65 entry?

Company Close Out

In a prior year a Company that was set up in Lawson was sold to a third party. When the assets were sold, we removed the assets from the company and as liabilities were resolved we removed the liabilities from the books of this company. As of 12/31 we were left with only intercompany receivables and equity. Now our tax department wants us to zero out the intercompany receivable balance and equity. Although these accounts have balances they don't zero out. How can we remove these balances without creating another interccompany balance? Any help is appreciated.

AP out of balance due to data error.

May 1, 2016, 8:27 pm

Our AP has been out of balance with GL since 2013. I was able to identify old invoices back from 2013 that are matched , paid and journalized however they are not being picked up by AP reconciliation report. The problem is caused by mismatch between APINVOICE and APDISTRIB table.
OBJ_id in AP Invoice table does not equal to api_obj_id in APDISTRIBUTION. All other tables ( match, gl etc) are correct ( they match Ap distribution table). I am assuming user somehow was able to delete invoice header but line items remained in apdistrib ( or data was manipulated via sql). New invoice ( without associated line items have been matched to PO, paid, and journalized.) I would like to correct this error with a script but I don't think there is a way to change obj_id to match to ap_obj_id . I am new to oracle but remember that in SQL there was an option to set identity column on and off.
Has anyone ever experience this issue? What was the resolution? Do you have any suggestion on how to fix that via script?
I was thinking about deleting invoice lines in ap distribution and enter new lines via application and flag them as posted without journalzing.
Of course I am going to have issues with primary keys in the rest of the tables.
Another idea is to set base amount to 0 in AP distribution. This way invoice will be in balance. I am not able to test any of this scenarios because our hosting company and IT department does not want to give full rights to the test database ( company policy, etc).
I would appreciate any comments and suggestions. I am sure someone had to experience similar issue in the past.

Infor BI versus LBI versus other solutions

Does anybody have experience using Infor BI versus Lawson BI?
We purchased Lawson BI but have'nt implemented it.
Our rep is recommending that we switch to Infor BI instead and maintains that Lawson BI wont continue to be supported.
We have another team here who thinks we should ditch the Infor solution entirely and start using Tableau instead which the company has'nt purchased yet but they have researched it and think its a preferred solution for reporting all round

Any thoughts or input is appreciated

We have a person who keys in patient refunds to our Lawson system. She needs to be able to create one-time vendors for this (as the patient becomes a vendor). However we don't want the person to have the ability to go into the Vendor screens and just add new vendors. Is there a way to allow for adding one-time vendors only? We are on Applications v 9.0.1.9 and LAUA security at this point.
