What is the Infor Lawson Design Studio?

Infor Lawson Design Studio is a browser-based drag and drop graphical development environment that is used to customize or enhance Infor Lawson applications in a variety of ways.

The Design Studio is made up of these stand-alone components.

  • Wizard Designer, a tool to automate form actions (such as add, delete, inquire) and create help text specific to your site for an Infor Lawson form.

  • UI Designer, a tool to customize Infor Lawson forms or create new forms.

  • Portal Page Designer, a tool to create portal pages. These could be your own gateway to Infor Lawson or could be used for a wide variety of other purposes.

Built into the Design Studio are these additional features:

  • API Builder: Retrieve and send Infor Lawson data through the Internet Object Services engines. APIs created using the API Builder are pasted into other applications that you create such as Crystal reports or VB applications.

  • Scripting environment: The Design Studio includes a JavaScript development environment for adding functionality specific to your needs to a form or portal page. Within the environment Infor Lawson provides an Object Viewer to help understand and access Infor Lawson objects when you create a script.
