Editing a standard message template

Use this procedure to edit standard message templates. The patterns used when automatically creating the 01 – 05 messages from an AA message are stored in a template. When a standard message is created or edited, MAK tries to look up which template to use for the current language. Templates for a couple of predefined languages are built into MAK (GB, SE, DE, DK, ES, FI, FR, and NO). If the current language does not match any of these, MAK tries to look up a template from existing language files for the current language. If no template can be looked up, the GB template is used as the default template.

  1. In the Edit MSG Object pane, select Standard Message. The properties are displayed.
  2. Click Template. The Standard Message Template properties are displayed.
  3. Modify the information as needed. The character combination {0} is replaced with the value of the AA message when the template is used.
  4. Click OK to save the template and exit the template editor. The values in the 01 – 05 fields are updated according to the template modification made.
