Frequently Customized Siebel Analytics Web User Interface Messages

Messages that are frequently customized are located in the file UIMessages.xml. This file contain text strings for display elements and for links throughout the user interface.

For example, the following messages contain the text for the links Admin, Alerts!, and Answers in the user interface. You can customize the text, or delete the text to suppress the display of the link.

<WebMessage name="kmsgUIAdmin">

  <HTML>Admin</HTML>

</WebMessage>

<WebMessage name="kmsgUIAlerts">

  <HTML>Alerts!</HTML>

</WebMessage>

<WebMessage name="kmsgUIAnswers">

  <HTML>Answers</HTML>

</WebMessage>

For example, users can export the data for a request to a Microsoft Excel file. If you do not want to support the download to Excel option, you can remove the link.

To remove the Download link

  1. Open the ViewsControlMessages.xml file.
  2. Copy the following message to the CustomMessages.xml file:

    <WebMessage name="kmsgEVCDownloadLinks">

      <HTML>

        <a insert="1">

          <MessageRef name="kmsgEVCLinkDownloadExcel" />

        </a>

        <a insert="2">

          <MessageRef name="kmsgEVCLinkDownloadData" />

        </a>

      </HTML>

  3. Delete the first message identifier anchor:

        <a insert="1">

          <MessageRef name="kmsgEVCLinkDownloadExcel" />

        </a>

  4. Save the CustomMessages.xml file.
