Hi Claire, I know that in ITSM 7, the system uses a "SYS:Message Box" form to hold note messages. Workflow just looks up an entry in this form, sets in a display only field then displays the contents of the field to the user. If you can't find it in the AR System Data Dictionary, then it would suggest that this message is generated dynamically (perhaps by being looked up in the way described above). I would think that the easiest way of verifying this is to turn on Active Link and Filter Logging, reproduce the scenario and find the workflow that generates the message...trace backwards from there.
HTH Chris. P.S. - I don't think I've ever heard Helpdesk 4.03 being called "lovely" before! I could share some of the words I've heard used to describe it, but I might get banned from the list ();o) ITSM 7.0 is the way forward...try it...you might like it... > When a new asset is created in the CMDB using the AST:ComputerSystem > form as the entry point, the confirmation message says "Request > $200000020$ has been created" > > 200000020 translates into the Name field, not the Asset ID+ field > (210000000). > > This is a big problem.
