Title: Change Drill Options


pinko - October 1, 2007 08:20 PM (GMT)
When I drillaround a specific employee, I get the the list of options. for example, I have "positions,jobs" option, I open it and get the details like:

level Effective Position Job Code Process Level Dept
Level1 10/11/06 HLTCOTA30 COTA HLT 30

Can I add more fields? such as "Deptname" and it show me as following?
level Effective Position Job Code Process Level Dept Deptname
Level1 10/11/06 HLTCOTA30 COTA HLT 30 IT


I don't know if it is doable or I should tell my boss not to do that.

Pinko,

How much training do you have with Lawson utilities? You requirements are all explained in Lawson's Workbench Manual. It would be useless for us to explain to you how drill around works as this will take several pages here to publish much less when you don't have the slightest idea about these type of programming. I would suggest have your programmers take a look at it.

Yes, it is doable. You would have to modify the .or or .sr files. For example, we modified the AP.or and AP.sr to allow VDR-ADDR1 to display on AP20 when you drill down on remit to location field.

Make sure you add comments reflecting the mods, as it will most certainly be clobbered by patches you install later.

Yes, you are right. I am the new person to take care of customization work from IT department. My organization(non-profit) doesn't have extra money to pay Lawson consultant and ask IT person to do such job. I can't see and change any Lawson cobal codes. My boss expects me much to do what we can't do.
