Editing Mobile Messages using code

Step 1 - Adding mobile messages

Using event OnAddMessages.

Adding a Mobile Message and translations for English and Danish
The _LanguageCode corresponds to Mobile Language

[EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"MOB WMS Language", 'OnAddMessages', '', true, true)]

localprocedureMyOnAddMessages(_LanguageCode: Code[10]; var_Messages: Record"MOB Message")

begin

if_LanguageCode='ENU'then

_Messages.Create('ENU', 'MYSIGNATUREHELPLABEL', 'Make sure to verify the picked items.'); // Create English translation for my custom mobile message

if_LanguageCode='DAN'then

_Messages.Create('DAN', 'MYSIGNATUREHELPLABEL', 'Kontollér de plukkede varer.'); // Create Danish translation for my custom mobile message

end;

Step 2 - Using the mobile message as "label" for a header step on posting picks

Using event OnPostPickOrder_OnAddStepsToAnyHeader.

Changing the "label" on Signature Step to use the new mobile message.
See also Step Configuration Matrix

[EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"MOB WMS Pick", 'OnPostPickOrder_OnAddStepsToAnyHeader', '', true, true)]

localprocedureMyOnPostPickOrder_OnAddStepsToAnyHeader(var_OrderValues: Record"MOB Common Element"; _RecRef: RecordRef; var_StepsElement: Record"MOB Steps Element")

var

MobWmsLanguage: Codeunit"MOB WMS Language";

begin

// Break if new step is already collected to prevent infinite loop

if_OrderValues.HasValue('MySignatureStep') then

exit;

// Create a new Signature step

_StepsElement.Create_SignatureStep(10000, 'MySignatureStep');

_StepsElement.Set_helpLabel(MobWmsLanguage.GetMessage('MYSIGNATUREHELPLABEL')); // Set HelpLabel to use my custom mobile message

end;

Step 3 - Trigger "OnAddMessages"-event

With the above event subscribers active, go to Business Central

Open the Mobile Language-page
Select the language
Select action "Mobile Message"
Select action "Create Messages"
Repeat step 1-4 for each language, in this case ENU and DAN

Alternatively, you can write an Installation Codeunit that uses Codeunit "MOB WMS Language" to create the message in Step 1.
