String Customization

When using Infor YMS, you may find that there are drop down and column values that you want to customize or override with values that fit your company processes and uses. The string customizations can be repeated and applied multiple times.

For example, the inspection levels could be used by a customer to reflect the process rather than inspection type. in that case, the customer might change the inspection levels to the values shown in this table:

String Standard text definition Customer text definition
sYMSLevel1 Level 1 (Casual) Level 1 (Yard)
sYMSLevel2 Level 2 (Moderate) Level 2 (External)
sYMSLevel3 Level 3 (Detailed) Level 3 (Internal)
sYMSLevel4 Level 4 (Comprehensive) Level 4 (Comprehensive)
You can use the Facility > Enterprise >Administration > String Customization page to:
  • Create a customized string
  • Modify a custom string
  • Delete the custom string
  • Import custom strings
  • Export custom string
  • Apply a customized string
  • Revert the original string value
