St. Olaf College Lawson Web Access
This service provides Web-based access to Lawson operating budget accounting reports, including:
- Year-to-Date Budget Variance Reports
- Year-to-Date Transaction Reports
- By Period Transaction Report
After you type in your email login name and password below, you will be shown a list of all the budget units to which you have access. You can select any combination of reports and/or units to view; but for simplicity's sake, it is best to start with one or two reports on a single accounting unit. If for some reason you do not see a unit you should be able to access, please click on the "Show Directory of Units and Owners" at the bottom on the next screen to request access.
