For error messages that may appear as a result of custom java rules, custom java blocks, or custom tools, TeamConnect lets you create custom message keys and associated message text for localization purposes.
You can define for the following:
•Object-definition-specific custom messages used in custom rules and screens.
•Common custom messages that are used in custom tools, custom portal pane content, and custom screens.
Once defined, when you export data from TeamConnect for localization, the message keys and message text appear on the Excel spreadsheet on the Custom Resources tab. You can enter your translations on this tab and then import the translated text back to TeamConnect. This allows users to see custom messages in their preferred language.
Once you create a message key, you cannot edit it, but you can edit the associated message. You can delete a custom key and its associated message.
Note: If the text of a custom message contains parameter tokens ({0}, {1}, etc.) these tokens must be retained in the translated text for each locale.
1.Open the Designer. 2.Select one of the following options: oFor object definition-specific custom messages—Click the Go to drop-down list, and then select Object Definitions. Select the object definition for which you want to create custom messages. Click the Custom Messages tab. oFor common custom messages—Click the System Settings drop-down list, and then select Custom Messages. If necessary, click the Custom Messages tab. 3.(optional) In the Number of entries you would like to add drop-down list, enter the number of keys with messages that you want to create. 4.In the Message Key field, enter the appropriate message key. All common custom message keys are prefixed with custom.common.; all object definition message keys are prefixed with custom. only. You do not have to enter these prefixes or the period—they are automatically added to the front of the message key when you click add more.
A message key may contain up to 250 alphanumeric characters.
5.In the Default Value box, enter the appropriate message text. The message may contain up to 4000 characters. A Default Value message must have an associated message key. 6.Click add more. |
Note: You cannot edit the Message Key, but you can edit the associated Default Value message.
Click the check-box for the Default Value that you want to edit, and then click edit. Make the appropriate changes and then click ok.
