Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hello,

In Nav 2016 there is system indicator fields in the company information where you can define if required what name should show up on the page. It works in windows client but not on the web client? Is there any way to show the name of the company that the user is working in? The company name in the URL is not going to work for my client.

Thanks,

Neeta

Hi,

So if you want to display the company name to the user everytime he opens the web client then you have to customize doing the following:
You will have to identify your role center or you can do it on all role centers.
Eg: If your role center is Business manager role center then go to page 9022 Business manager role center, so the first page part is O365 activities so identify the page object no of this part by going to properties.
Now go to this page i.e. Page 1310 O365 activities in this scenario and in OnOpenPage() trigger of O365 activities you can display a message as below which will be displayed everytime web client is opened.

MESSAGE('Company name: %1',COMPANYNAME);

You can check the below screenshots:

I know that but it is not displayed on the page and user will not like to keep on checking the company?

Hi,

Yes you can get the name of the company that the user is working in by navigating to 'My settings' from the top right corner of the NAV web client by clicking on the user icon besides the question mark.
