Change Error Message in Travel Expenses

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I'm having a problem changing one of the error messages on the Create Expense Report screens in ESS Travel Expenses.

[Here's a screenshot|http://www.scehardt.com/news/image003.png]

I've changed the label to say Ticket instead of Document. Now I need to change the error message to match. I found the error message in the backend, but it is formatted as Required entry field "&" is empty. Does anyone know where Document Number is inserted into the error message? Alternately, is there a way to change the error message for that field to a custom message?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Friend,

Find the code snippet something like this in your code

IWDMessageManager msgMgr =
			  wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager();
			  msgMgr.reportContextAttributeMessage(
			  wdContext.current<YourNodeElement>().getAttributePointer("<YourDocumentNumberAttribute>"),
			  IMessagePackScopingComp.<Your_Error_message_key>, new Object[] {"Document Number"});
                         // Replace The Document Number from last line with your desired text

Here you can change the Text which is going to be supplied to message pool at run time.

Further you can follow this tutorial for message pool and error message.
