Capturing Lawson Application Messages

This information pertains only to jobs submitted using the lacobrts utility.

When you use the Job Scheduler utility to submit jobs, it creates and maintains a job log ($LAWDIR/system/joblog). This log contains messages from the application that you can use to identify the cause of errors.

When you use a third-party job scheduler and submit through the lacobrts utility, you bypass the Job Scheduler utility. Job log files are not automatically created. The batch job scheduler you are using must create and maintain the log files, or, at a minimum, manage display messages coming from the Lawson application programs.
