Message of the Day

NLS 4.11.16 and later

NLS 5.13 and later

NLS can be configured to display a message in a popup window when a user successfully logs into a database.

This feature must first be enabled in Setup > System > System Defaults > Miscellaneous > Message of the Day. After restarting NLS the Message of the Day setup item will appear under System setup.

Click Add to create a new message.

Enter a subject for the message, set the dates on which to display the message, and the message to be displayed.

Note

Multiple messages may be configured but only one message can be displayed on a given date. Creating a new message whose date overlaps an existing message’s date is not permitted so the existing message must first be deleted  or modified  if a conflict occurs.

Once configured a dialog will appear with the message when a user logs into NLS within the specified date.

Security

Privileges (view, update, add, and delete) for the Message of the Day setup may be assigned in System > Message of the Day.
