Hi Amir,

 

The best way to take a look at the way we handle the UI for error
messages is to try submitting another page on the site without entering
data in all of the required fields.  For example I just tried this on
the test server by clicking on the 'Enter collection sheet data' page
and then hitting submit without selecting anything.  From this you can
see the typical method for handling error messages - there is bulleted
red text at the top of the page that shows the error message.

 

Anyway, let me know if that helps.  Hopefully that gives you the
information you need.  Perhaps after v1.1, I'll put up a page with some
guidelines for error messages (for PMs to know the best way to write
error message text to make it useful, and for developers to know how it
should appear consistently across the site).

 

Thanks,

 

Aliya

Subject: [Mifos-developer] Warning/Info Message Format

 


Hi All, 

I am working on defect 1520, which allows to create a client who has
been previously closed by the application. 

I need to display a warning/info message to user saying the client is
already present in closed state, and whether he wants to go ahead and
still create another client with same name/govt id. 
So, this is not an error message, but an information or warning message
to user. 

Is there a particular format for displaying warning message ? 
I want to make sure the UI of application looks consistent and want to
follow the same format if this type of scenario is happening in the
system elsewhere. 

If this is not currently happening in application, may I know what
format should I follow. 

Thanks,
