Select and navigate to the
Details tab to define detailed information
about a message.
Note:
Drilling in from the Main tab. Rather
than scrolling through the messages, you can display a message by
clicking the respective go to button in the grid on the main tab.
Description of Page
The Message Collection scroll contains
an entry for every message in the grid on the Main tab. It's helpful
to categorize messages into two categories when describing the fields
on this page:
- Product messages
- Implementation-specific messages (i.e., a message added to Message Category 80000 or greater)
For product messages, you can use this page as follows:
- If you want to override a message, specify Customer
Specific Message Text.
- You are limited to the same substitution values used in the original Message Text. For example, if the original Message
Text is The %1 non-cash
deposit for %2 expires on %3 and %1 is the type of non-cash
deposit, %2 is the name of the customer, and %3 is the expiration
date of the non-cash deposit; your Customer Specific Message
Text is limited to the same three substitution variables.
However, you don't have to use any substitution variable in your message
and you can use the substitution variables in whatever order you please
(e.g., %3 can be referenced before %1, and %2 can be left out altogether).
- If you want to override the detailed description of an error message,
specify Customer Specific Description. Note
that the system does not present detailed descriptions when warnings
are shown to users. Therefore, it doesn't make sense to enter this
information for a warning message.
For implementation-specific messages, you can use this page as
follows:
CAUTION:
If both Message Text and
Customer Specific Message Text are specified,
the system will only display the Customer Specific Message
Text in the dialog presented to the user.
- Use Detailed Description to define additional
information about an error message. Note that the system does not
present detailed descriptions when warnings are shown to users. Therefore,
it doesn't make sense to enter this information for a warning message.
CAUTION:
If both Detailed Description and Customer Specific Description are specified,
the system will only display the Customer Specific Description in the dialog presented to the user.
