Configuring Sun Master Indexes (Repository)

Defining EDM Local ID Labels (Repository)

The system-display-name-overrides element, which is nested in the gui-definition element, defines alternate names for the local ID headings and labels. The name defined here replaces the default local ID heading and field names on all pages, including the search result column names. This element is optional, and if it does not exist the label names default to “Local ID”. If the value of either of the sub-elements is missing, the label names also default to “Local ID”.

ProcedureTo Define Local ID Labels

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click the Enterprise Data Manager file.

    The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

  2. Scroll to the system-display-name-overrides element in the gui-definition element.

  3. Modify any of the following elements.

    • local-id-header – The name to use for the header label of the local ID search section of the EDM Lookup window.

    • local-id – The name to use for all fields and columns containing local IDs. In fields where the local ID label is abbreviated to “LID1” or “LID2”, the name becomes local-id1 or local-id2 (where local-id is the value specified for this element).

    For example:


       <gui-definition>
          <system-display-name-overrides>
             <local-id-header>System Identifier</local-id-header>
             <local-id>System ID</local-id>
          </system-display-name-overrides>
          ...
  4. Save and close the file.
