Customizing Properties files

Properties files are available for all major Business Process Server components. You can use these files for customization of contact details or your date format; or for internationalization of labels, messages, and so on. For information on internationalization (or localization), see LocalizingBusiness Process Server. A list of Properties files for each Business Process Server component is given in the following table.

Table 3. Properties files of each component
Business Process Server component	Properties file(s)
OEBPS (Common for all components)	oebps_.properties oebpsemail_.properties oebpslog_*.properties
BP Server	bpserver_.properties adapterframework_.properties bpmprocessstore_.properties dbadapter_.properties emailadapter_.properties fileadapter_.properties ftpadapter_.properties wsadapter_.properties
BPM Events	bpmevents_*.properties
BPM WebFlow	bpmwebflow_en.properties
Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge	Deployment_.properties designer_.properties documentgeneration_.properties FormEditor_.properties Rulewizard_*.properties
Business Process Portal	BscResources.properties bpmportal_.properties jasperreports_.properties UDDIBrowser_*.properties

For each key that is to be customized, you can specify its value. For example, if an organization wants to refer to a group of people working together on a task as a "Team", instead of "Group", then that organization can edit the bpmportal.properties file and change all "Group" references in values to "Team". For example, change Create_Group=Create Group to Create_Group=Create Team, change GroupList=Group List to GroupList=Team List.
