SSPR allows you to configure macros to generate messages in a particular format and perform required actions. If you require a particular message to be displayed in an email or when a user performs a particular action, then you can add the required macro where the information is a variable value. If you require any particular action to be automated for a specific user action, then configure macros for that particular action. Following is an example that displays the usage of macros:
Example 3-1 Dear, @LDAP:givenName@, Thank you for your activity today, @CurrentTime:EEE, MMM d, yyyy@. When the macros are activated the following message is displayed in the body of the email that is sent to specific user:
Dear, John, Thank you for your activity today, Wed, Jul 4, 2001.
The list of macros that can be used to define the configuration value are as following:
