Configure Comments Field Labels

Ennov InSight Viewing allows you to add new values or edit existing values for the Add Comments fields: Scope, Type, Priority and Category. This enables you to create a customized list that suits your business needs.

The changes to the values for these fields must be made in the CommentsReportConfig.xml file.Note: All users must be logged out of the Ennov InSight Viewing application as Tomcat services would be required to stop and restart to complete the steps below.

1. Stop the Apache Tomcat service(s).
2. Locate and open the CommentsReportConfig.xml file in a text or XML editor. For Tomcat, you can find the CommentsReportConfig.xml file in the \I4V\WEB-INF\classes\ectd subfolder of your Tomcat installation directory.
3. To add new values to a field, add an appropriate attribute under the section relevant to a field with a label and value variable.
   To add a new value under the field Type, add the attribute as shown below. The text New Type and new value exemplifies the user-defined label and value variable respectively.

   
   <commentreportvalues>         
   <type>
       <typevalue label="All" value="all"/>
       <typevalue label="" value=""/>
       <typevalue label="Issue" value="issue"/>
       <typevalue label="Comment" value="comment"/>
       <typevalue label="Content" value="content"/>
       <typevalue label="Formatting" value="formatting"/>
       <typevalue label="Linking" value="linking"/>
       <typevalue label="New Type" value="new value"/>
   </type>
               

4. To modify the label name of an existing field on the Comments screen, highlight the label name and enter a new name.

   The label name in the following:

   <typevalue label="Comment" value="comment"/>

   is changed to

   <typevalue label=" New Comment" value="comment"/>.
5. To modify the value of an option in a field, highlight the value and enter a new value.

   The value in the following:

   <typevalue label="Comment" value="comment"/>

   is changed to

   <typevalue label="New Comment" value=" new comment"/>.
6. Save and close the CommentsReportConfig.xml file.
7. Restart Apache Tomcat service(s).
