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.


    [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

  1. Open the Mobile Language-page
  2. Select the language
  3. Select action "Mobile Message"
  4. Select action "Create Messages"
  5. 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.
