To modify an existing file, proceed as follows:

1. On the file server, navigate to the following location:

   <AS_Java_Installation>\j2ee\cluster\bin\ext\com.sap.security.core.sda\

2. From the file sap.com~tc~sec~ume~core~impl.jar, extract the file com.sap.security.core.jar.

3. From the file sap.com~tc~sec~ume~core~impl.jar, extract the file notificationTexts_<Java_locale>.properties.

   The Java locales consist of the ISO 639-1 language code and an optional ISO 3166 country code separated by an underscore (_).

    Example

   There is a separate file for each language. German texts are defined in notificationTexts_de.properties. Texts for Hong Kong Chinese are defined in notificationTexts_zh_HK.properties. To modify the e-mail message in several languages, you must modify all the corresponding files.

   End of the example.

4. Create a copy of the file and modify the copy as required.

   For line breaks, use \n control sequence.

   The following placeholders are defined and can be used to pull relevant variables from the user data.

   Placeholder Variables for User Data

   Placeholder	Description
   {0}	Display name of the sender.
   {1}	Salutation of the sender.
   {2}	First name of the sender.
   {3}	Last name of the sender.
   {4}	Display name of the receiver.
   {5}	Salutation of the receiver.
   {6}	First name of the receiver.
   {7}	Last name of the receiver.
   {8}	Password of the receiver.  Note The system replaces the placeholder with the password: When users register themselves and the system generates the user passwords automatically When users reset their own passwords with the logon help When the user administrator changes or resets the user’s password When the user administrator creates a new user End of the note.  Caution The system sends the password in plain text. Users must change their passwords at the first opportunity. End of the caution.
   {9}	Free text. This is the text that the administrator or user can add in the text box, for example when locking a user. Do not remove the free text placeholder.

5. Save the file with the name com.sap.security.core.util.notification.notificationTexts_<Java_locale>.properties.

    Note

   When determining which file to use for the notification texts, the UME uses the following criteria:

   • If the Java locale of the user is specified, the UME tries to match the Java locale in the user profile with the Java locale in the filename. The UME checks for that exact Java locale, then checks for the less specific versions of the locale until it finds a match.

      Example

     Donna Moore has specified a Java locale en_US_Bronx in her user profile during self-registration. The UME first checks for a file with en_US_Bronx. If it cannot find one, it checks for a file with en_US. If it cannot find one, it checks for a file with en. If it still cannot find one it uses the default notification texts.

     End of the example.

   • If the Java locale of the user is not specified, the user receives the text from the default e-mail notification text file.

   End of the note.
