Labels

Introduction

Starting with CM version 6.10, it is possible to manipulate labels which are displayed on the GUI, i.e. in the Web Client. In this way, you, as an administrator, can customize the graphical user interface according to your company's requirements concerning terminology and/or Corporate Design.

Currently, the configuration is possible for terms which concern the CM.Resource Pool. In future CM versions, more adaptations will be possible.

Configuring Labels Using the Admin Tool

In the Admin Tool, labels are configured on the navigation item Labels in the navigation group Global Configuration.

For CM Programmers: Defining Labels for Messages

You can also use Labels to define error or information messages which should be displayed in the Web Client in certain situations. In this way, you do not have to use only standard CM properties but you can define very specific messages. The following three figures provide an example.
