When outputting a message, openUTM accesses the UTM message modules. These contain the following, among other things, for each message.
the message number Knnn or Pnnn
the message text
the message destinations
the place holders for the inserts
The message definition file SYSMSH.UTM.070.MSGFILE and the following two system message modules are supplied with openUTM.
KCSMSGS (German message texts)
KCSMSGSE (English message texts)
The system message modules contain default settings for the message destinations and German or English message texts. The message definition file is used as the basis if the user wishes to change the UTM messages. It contains message texts in both English and German.
You may only use the UTM tools KDCMTXT and KDCMMOD to process the message definition file! Any other write access, such as with an editor will destroy this file!
The message definition file can be expanded with message texts in other languages (see "Messages in other languages - the KDCMTXT tool"). From the message definition file you can use the KDCMMOD tool (see "Generating a user-specific message module with KDCMMOD") to create your own message modules.
A certain type of message output is defined in the standard message modules. If you wish to change this, you must generate one or more of your own message modules.
