    We want to modify text on each benefit plan annual enrollment header.  Using the technical text, we still cannot find the proper file to modify and reference back to the benmsgs file.

     

    For example on Medical Only, we want to edit this section:

      The page that displays depends on which plan is being displayed. I believe that is disp_ben_01.htm. It's kind of tricky, but when you are on a page, right click and get view source. A lot of times it says "header pane", but if you click around the top and/or bottom, eventually you'll get the actual page that is being displayed.

      benmsgs.xml is in $WEBDIR/Lawson/xhrnet/xml/lang/enus.

      We modified so much of the verbiage and added all kinds of text. So, we created our own custom XML file. Let me know if you need any other information.

        It is in disp_ben_01. I am just not understanding exactly where to insert the reference the phrase on benmsgs in html in the code. Most of disp_ben_01 is the table. I also can see the footer; where do find the section on the header.

          Verbiage for the plans, the order of the plans, etc. comes from the set-up screens - BS02/BS03/etc.

            Yes, we have that the way we like it.

            is there anyway you could email me using my profile contact information, so that I have the possibility to talk to you? I could really use the help.

            Thanks,
            Wendy

              I believe this is the line:
              document.getElementById("paneHeader").innerHTML = ''+getSeaPhrase("ENROLLMENT_ELECTIONS","BEN")+' - '+parent.parent.CurrentBens[parent.parent.planname][32]+'';

                So, if you want to display something based on the plan name, you would need to add some code like this:
                if (parent.parent.CurrentBens[parent.parent.planname][32] == "MEDICAL") {
                html += ''
                + getSeaPhrase("MEDICAL_3", "TCH")
                + '
                ' + getSeaPhrase("MEDICAL_4", "TCH") + ''
                + '
                ' + getSeaPhrase("MEDICAL_5", "TCH") + ''
                + '
                ' + getSeaPhrase("WAIVE_1", "TCH") + plan_name + getSeaPhrase("WAIVE_5", "TCH")
                + ''
                }

                  so that post got messed up.
                  planname[32] is the type you set-up on BS02/BS03. So check to see if it is equal to "MEDICAL" and add your code to the table.
                  We have verbiage added on that page for Medical, Dental and Vision based on looking at planname[32].
