Headers/Footers in Self Service have been replaced by Messages, which are embedded directly in the forms in the preferred position.
Steps to add embedded Messages in a form are as follows:
- IMMS - create a new message
- Allows multiple lines and HTML.
- Best practice recommendation: name the Message ‘FORM_HEADER’ (i.e. WEBOEE-HEADER) – allows easy search on client-created messages. Clients may also wish use a naming convention with their customer code embedded – this is not necessary assuming that clients properly label the message as “User Defined”.
- IMWC - create a new Where clause
- Table (Data Source) = P2K_AM_MESSAGES
- Where Clause Condition will be setup as Type = Ad Hoc, Column Name = MESSAGE_CODE, Operator = EQUALS, Value = xxxxx-HEADER (message name from step 1)
- IMFDH – add the Message to the function
- Table Usages tab: add a new table usage for P2K_AM_MESSAGES (Data Source)
- Table Alias = MMSH (or something unique for this message).
- Use the where clause created in step 2.
- Toggle on x Retrieve Allowed (save the change).
- Form Layout tab: add a new row (Form Group = something unique, ie: HEADER INFO) to the form layout in the required position/block
- Parent Group = FORM
- Layout type = TEXT
- Decoration = Lined Border, if you want (save)
- In the new Form Group: add a display only field of MMSH.MESSAGE_TEXT (use the alias you created instead of MMSH if different)
- Display width = SS-Widest
- Height must be > 1
- If you don't add a label, the system will display "Text".
- High Line recommends "Instructions" or "Note".
