IBM® Content Navigator provides default terms that are displayed in the web client user interface. You can change these terms to terms that your users are familiar with and that match your business needs.
About this task
You can change the following types of text in the interface:
- Application-level terms
- These are terms such as class or repository. For example, you might change the term class to document class if your users are familiar with that term. You might also change the term repository to library if your company refers to repositories as libraries.
- Tip: You also can localize some user-defined application-level labels, such as file type filter labels, by entering a file type category from the Admin Settings tab. IBM Content Navigator adds the label to the Labels/Application tab. Then, you can localize the labels in different locale.
System property display names- These are terms such as Modified By or Major
Version Number. You can change the terms Modified By to Changed
By if your users are familiar with that term. If the term Major
Version Number is too long, you can shorten it to Major or Major
Version. Any changes that you make to the system property display
names in the web client do not affect the property names and values
that are configured on your repository. Tip: Some
of the system properties include an additional term in parentheses,
such as Creator (Added By). The term with no parentheses,
such as Creator, is the label that is assigned in IBM FileNet® Content Engine. The term that is surrounded
by parentheses, such as Added By, is the term that is
displayed in the web client user interface.
- Application space display names
- The FileNet P8 repository
must be configured for IBM Content
Navigator workflows
and an application space in Workplace XT.
You can rename your application spaces to describe how it is used
by users. For example, if one set of users is monitoring medical claims,
you can change the name of the application space to Medical
Claims.
All of the changes that you make to the application-level terms or system property display names apply to all of the desktops in your environment.
