Set a valid CCSID value

Note: Lawson requires a CCSID of 37 on either the User Profiles of the users running Lawson, or on the OS/400 System Value QCCSID.
Determine whether you want to change the QCCSID system value (usually for systems running only one language) or change the CCSID value for each user profile (usually for systems running multiple languages).

Perform only one of the following two procedures, whichever is appropriate for your site. See IBM's National Language Version (NLV) documentation for more details and ramifications of these settings.

  1. Use CHGSYSVAL to change the QCCSID system value. For example, type

    CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QCCSID) VALUE(37)

    Set each Lawson Users' User Profile that will be running the Lawson system to default to this system value. Type

    CHGUSRPRF USRPRF( LAWSONUSER ) CCSID(*SYSVAL)

    or

  1. Use CHGUSRPRF to set the appropriate value on each Lawson Users' User Profile that will be running the Lawson system. For example, type

    CHGUSRPRF USRPRF( LAWSONUSER ) VALUE(37)
