How Do I Add a Header or Footer to a Screen?#
Although headers and footers appear on the form, they are set up at the Function level.- Access the Maintain Function (IMFN) form through the Web Site Administrator main menu. You will be presented with a list of functions.
- Select the function to which you wish to add the Header and/or Footer.
- Click on the Preferences tab.
- Click the Add icon found at the bottom of the list of functions.
- Enter a sequence number. It is recommended using numbers increased by increments of ten. (e.g. 10, 20, 30, etc.)
- Enter in the Preference; HEADER INFO or FOOTER INFO.
- Enter the location of the html or jsp file in the Value field i.e. docs/WEDPN_Header.html

Various sample screen headers and footers have been supplied throughout Self Service. These headers and footers are either HTML or JSP files which are saved in the "docs" folder under selfService on your 9ias server.
The headers and footers provided can be edited to your requirements. It is recommended, however, that you follow the established naming conventions for these files.
- Header
- Footer
A header and/or footer will only appear on a screen if the Header Info and/or Footer Info preferences have been properly setup via the Maintain Functions (IMFN) screen in Self Service Administration module to call the appropriate HTML or JSP document from the "docs" directory.
Whenever Self Service software updates are provided there is the chance that supplied documents in the "docs" folder will be overwritten. To avoid losing any newly created documents or changes made to the delivered documents, we recommend that you keep a master copy of ALL required headers and footers outside of the server environment.
