Export Timesheets/Expenses to Lawson 7.2.2 Activity Transaction Relation File (ACTRANSREL)

DATABASICS exports timesheets/expenses to Lawson in two ways:

  1. Direct link to ACTRANSREL:  Databasics exports the data to the Lawson interface table directly either using ODBC or Native drivers.

  1. File Export:  Databasics exports the data to an ASCII file to be later imported into ACDBTRANS.  This method is used when there is no direct connectivity to the Lawson database server.
