Entering a String Override

If you cannot find a symbolic string that meets your requirements, then you can override the symbolic string that Siebel CRM uses. The information in the Properties That Store the Display Text section of Entering a Value to Set a Symbolic String Reference lists the properties that store a translatable string. Siebel CRM includes a corresponding String Override property for each of these properties that store a translatable string. For example, the Title – String Override property is the corresponding property for the Title property of an applet. You can use this override property to enter a custom string.

To enter a string override

  1. Make sure the EnableToolsConstrain parameter is set to FALSE.

    For more information, see Modifying the Configuration File to Support Symbolic Strings.

  2. In the Object List Editor, locate the object you want to modify.

    For example, locate the Account List Applet. For more information, see Locating Object Definitions in the Object List Editor.

  3. In the Title - String Override property, enter the string you require, and then tab out of this field.

    This property varies according to object type. For more information, see Properties That Store the String Override.
