    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.


        [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;
        [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 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.

    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.
