Customizing Rule Inserts

Rule inserts are very powerful because they allow the Password Policy and Rejection Reason messages to display the most appropriate information for each user. Most PPE rules have a Policy and Reason insert. The Policy insert is used by the [POLICY] macro, and the Reason insert is used by the [REASON] macro. To edit a rule's inserts:

Click the Policies item to display the Policies view.
Double-click the desired policy in the right pane of the management console.
Double-click the desired rule to display the Rule Properties page.
Click the Messages tab.
Choose a language from the Language list.
Edit the rule inserts in the Policy and Reason text boxes.

The Policy and Reason text boxes are blank by default because PPE automatically generates rule inserts from the rule's properties. If you do not want PPE to automatically generate the rule inserts, then enter the desired text in the Policy and Reason text boxes.
