Work with Message Id's screen

This routine provides a list of Message Id's against which specific actions may be configured for when associated activity occurs. The Message Id's will be displayed in alphabetical sequence.

The configured actions are known as 'Message Action Items'.

How to Get There

From the Master Menu, choose 20, then 4.

Options

2=Change Message Id
This option allows you to change the description / text associated with the selected Message Id.

4=Delete
Choose this option to delete a Message Id from the list. After Enter has been pressed, a confirmation will be displayed that lists all those Message Id's that have been selected for deletion. Press Enter again to delete the selected items or use F12 (Cancel) to return to change your choices. Once a Message Id has been deleted, it can be retrieved from the list of defaults that are supplied with the software. Deleting a Message Id will also remove all 'Message Action Items' that had been configured against that Message Id.

5=Display Message Id
Display the details associated with the selected Message Id. Option 5 is useful when the description is too long to be shown on the 'Work With' screen. In such situations ellipsis ('...') are shown at the end of the text.
