Customizing ALBPM WorkSpace Labels and Text Messages

ALBPM WorkSpace provides a mechanism to customize labels and text messages. The following procedures show you how to redefine one or more labels and or text messages.

1. Create a properties file.
2. Open the properties file in a text editor.
3. Add a key value pair for each of the messages you need to customize.
   
   

   • The key should be one of the keys listed in ALBPM WorkSpace Messages Reference.
   • The value is the String you want ALBPM WorkSpace to display for the label or text message corresponding to the specified key.
   Note: If the message needs to include input from the application it includes the string %number. The number corresponds to the number of inputs received by the message. When customizing messages that contain this string make sure you include it in the customized message.
   For example, if you want to replace the String "Help" for "Help me" you need to add the following key value pair to the properties file: Help=Help me
4. Copy this file to BEA_HOME/albpm6.0/enterprise/webapps/workspace/WEB-INF/classes.
5. Edit the ALBPM Workspace configuration file.
6. Add the key fuego.workspace.customMessageBundle and set its value to the name of the properties file, without the extension.

   For example, to add the properties file ModifiedMessages.properties, you need to add the key value pair fuego.workspace.customMessageBundle=ModifiedMessages to ALBPM Workspace configuration file.

7. Restart ALBPM web applications.
