Standard Context Message

A context message is a message that is related to the current Infor LN object. This context message is sent to Infor OS Portal or Infor Ming.le and distributed to context widgets or contextual apps that are listening to those messages.

In this way the context widgets or contextual apps show relevant information that is related to the Infor LN object being worked on.

For more information about InContext messaging, see the Infor Enterprise Server InContext Modeling Development Guide.

Use a Standard Context Message extension type to code additional logic around a session’s standard context message.

For example in these situations:

  • To prevent context being sent of a related Infor LN Object.
  • To send additional attributes of an Infor LN Object.
