Purpose

You will learn how to display the information in log file which is produced during execution of the script files, as message in the status bar. We will walk you through the following steps. 

1. Add a pushbutton.
2. Add a logs_message function.

//Create this file inside your script folder for Remove from Storage Other screen: SAPLMIGO.E0001.sjs
//Now let's start adding the content to the above file

1. Add a Display log message pushbutton to display log file information on the status bar.
   

   //Creates a pushbutton with label name as Display log message to execute the logs_message process on click. 
   pushbutton([1,72], "Display log message",{"process":logs_message});
   

    
   
   
   
    
2. Add a function to display message on status bar.
   

   // Function to display message on status bar
   function logs_message(){
      onscreen 'SAPLMIGO.0001'
         set('F[Material]', '100-300');
         enter();
   
   // Function prototype to trim blank characters from a string
   String.prototype.trim = function () {
      return this.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, "");
   }
   
      // Goods Issue Other 
      onscreen 'SAPLMIGO.0001'
         enter('/7');  //Check
   
      // Goods Issue Other 
      onscreen 'SAPLSBAL_DISPLAY.0120'
         for(j=0; j<3; j++){
            rb = new Reebok([2+j,1]);
            if(rb.name.toString().indexOf("Warning")>-1){
               if(isBlank(msg_type)){
                  msg_type = 'W:';
                  rb2 = new Reebok([2+j,10]);
                  msg_content = rb2.name.substring(rb2.name.indexOf("@",2)+1, rb2.name.length).trim();
               }
            } else if(rb.name.toString().indexOf("Error")>-1){
               msg_type = 'E:';
               rb2 = new Reebok([2+j,10]);
               msg_content = rb2.name.substring(rb2.name.indexOf("@",2)+1, rb2.name.length).trim();
               break;
            }
         }
         enter();
   
      onscreen 'SAPLMIGO.0001'
         if(msg_type == 'E:'){
            message("E:"+msg_content);
         }   
         enter('?');
   }
