Customizing Terminology in Weissr
As an administrator, you can customize Weissr to align with your organization's specific terminology for its capex processes. This includes updating menu items, messages, and other interface elements to match your company’s language and preferences.
Understanding Terminology Fields
In the Terminology Settings, you’ll find four key fields to manage:
ID
The unique identifier specifies where the message or label appears within the application.Original Message
The default text shown in Weissr.Custom Message
You can customize the text to match your organization's terminology.Context
Provides additional information about where and how the message is used within the platform.
Decoding the ID Field
The ID helps you identify where a particular message or label appears within Weissr. Here's how to interpret the ID structure:
IDs starting with
as.
refer to the Capex Strategy Module.IDs starting with
cm.
refer to the Capex Management Module or the Capital Budgeting Module.
You can hover over the ID for a more detailed reference within Weissr. For example, cm.request.collaboration.actions.tooltip.reply_blocked
tells you this message is part of Capex Management, specifically in the request section under the collaboration tab, related to an actions tooltip.
Searching and Editing Messages
You can use the search bar to search for specific text as it appears in Weissr. This will help you locate the exact message you want to customize. The ID can give you additional clues about whether you’re adjusting the correct element.
Once you identify the message, you can modify the Custom Message to suit your needs. After making changes, simply refresh the page to see your update in action. If you made an unintended change, don’t worry—you can easily restore the message to its default state.
