Loading the data dictionary

You must load the Lawson data dictionary before using the Report Writer application. The data dictionary is a set of Lawson pre-defined names that are used to access information in the General Ledger application for reporting. You need to perform this procedure only once when you initially install your software as long as the current version of the data dictionary remains the same. Future upgrades of the data dictionary might require that you run this program again.

  1. Run Data Dictionary Load (RW590).
  2. If you are using the Project Accounting application and do not have the General Ledger application, you can run AC Subset Data Dictionary Load (RW591) to load the data dictionary.
