Colin: To add a new field to notification message text...one that is not already available on the menus on the "SYS:Notification Messages" form's fields, follow these steps (object names I have included apply for adding a field from HPD:Help Desk form, i.e. Incidents):
1)Add a record for the field on form "SYS:Form Field Selections". See existing records for detail. 2)Add the field on following backend forms, so the field's value can be held during notification workflow processing NTE:SYS-NT Process Control NTE:SYS-Group NT Control NTE:SYS-Individual NT Control 3)Update the filter that replaces any placeholders for the field in the message template with actual value for the field from the ticket. One of these filters: NTE:SHR:TranslateNotificationMessageCommon_090 NTE:SHR:TranslateNotificationMessageINC3_102 4)Modify filters on backend notification forms as well as the source (ticket) form so the values are carried forward as the notification workflow continues from form to form. INT:FNDHPD:NPC:GetINCData_020 NTE:NTG:NoOnCall_260_Indiv-PNPC HPD:INC:NotificationGenerator_899_PNPC`! NTE:NTG:SetFieldsfromNPC_030 (no need to modify, just take a look) NTE:NPC:CreateNTRecord_180_PNTI NTE:NTG:CreateNTRecord_180_PNTI`! (no need to modify, just take a look) Given the nature of the code involved, a thorough testing of you modifications would include: -a message that goes out to requester -a message that goes out to a single support staff -a message that goes out to an entire group, not flagged on-call -a message that goes out to an on-call group HTH. > ---Colin wrote: > Rabi, thanks for the prompt reply. > > Yes, it is tricky - I can find the entries to modify > in form > "SYS:Notification Messages" > - they have tags HPD-INC-AssigneeAssignment and > HPD-INC-GroupAssignment > but customer phone number is not on the fields menu > for the form > > Colin > > --- Rabi Tripathi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Colin, > > Modifying notification text is rather easy.
