=Modifying Labels in Subscribe-HR Software=
The Subscribe-HR Platform is fairly flexible and allows for customised labels in the system.
<br>
You will have come across these labels throughout the system. Messages should not be mistaken for labels. Messages are used when a Warning or Error needs to be provided<br>where as Labels maybe present on the screen at all times or when a condition is met.
<br>
Almost the best method of finding if you can replace the text of a label is to search for the label you wish to change.
<br>

==Searching for and Modifying Labels==
# After logging into the Subscribe-HR portal, select the <b>Development</b> TAB.
# Select the <b>Labels</b> Folder.
# Use the search to help locate the Label you wish to modify.
# Select the message you wish to modify.
# Modify the <b>Label</b> field.<br>Be careful, if a Label has the variable string %s, its ideal to leave the string in the error message. If the string %s is removed it may result in what would seem as incomplete Label.
# Select the [Save] button.

<i><b>Example:</b> I was wanting to replace the text of the <b>Reports Label</b>, so I simply searched for <b>Reports</b>.</i>
<br>

==Creating New Labels==
# After logging into the Subscribe-HR portal, select the <b>Development</b> TAB.
# Select the <b>Labels</b> Folder.
# Select the [Create] button.
# Enter the <b>Label code</b>.<br>The label code must be written in the following syntax: labels appearing in the Human Resources area should look like this <b>hr-xxxx</b> (xxxx is where the next incremental numbers are written.<br>Labels appearing in the Recruitment area should look like this <b>rec-xxxx</b> (xxxx is where the next incremental numbers are written.
# Enter the <b>Label</b>.
# Select the [Save] button.
