Modifying a screen

You can modify an existing screen to suit your business needs by following the information provided in this topic.

  • Before customizing a screen provided by default, you should decide whether you want to override the screen files by copying and modifying them or whether you want to create your own screen.
    • To create a new screen instead of overriding an existing screen, you can use the existing partial HTMLs, directives, and services. To create a new screen instead of overriding an existing screen, you should consider the following criteria:
      • The features that are available in the existing screens and needed as part of the new screen.
      • The features that are available in the existing screens and not needed as part of the new screen.
      • The features that are not available in the existing screens and needed as part of the new screen.
    • You can override the screen files by copying the files to <wscdevwar>/extn/<default path to the files>/ and modifying them as required.
  • To customize the styling of a screen, refer Customizing the CSS.
  • Once you complete performing the required changes, you can test your customization.
Note:
  • Any customization for a view or screen should be done in its entirety. This implies that the required controller JS and the HTML components must be copied to the customization directory.
  • In case a HTML document contains any ng-include directive to import another HTML template, the imported template HTML should also be copied to the customization directory.
