How to resolve Lawson ‘Distribution List Has Not Been Defined’ Error in jobdef
Summary: When setting up a Distribution group so other users can view the print manager of another user, typically a system user like lawson. You need to complete a very important step before being able to add it.
- In Jobdef when you try and set the distribution group you get the “Distribution List Has Not Been Defined” error (not displayed below, but it’s an example of it being set)
- To resolve, go to users environment info shown below in ISS (This can be done in LSA or ISS)
- M sure to add the distribution group to the environment info of the Lawson user (assuming you’re distributing a lawson job to other users).
- Open jobdef and add it now. NOTE: After adding to Jobdef, you can clear this field and it should still work.
Retiring Lawson, PeopleSoft, or Oracle? APIX archives the entire application — every table, every year, attachments and security included — into your own AWS account in about 30 days, so you can decommission the legacy system and keep full access to the history.
