%s in error messages are placeholders used to indicate where a specific value, such as a Location ID, will be inserted when the actual error message is displayed.
For example, let’s assume the error is “Overlapping Outage exist for this locationNum. Outage Id : %s”. This error occurs when a user tries to schedule a new maintenance outage for a specific warehouse (Location Number 123), but there’s already an existing outage, OUTAGE-A-123, scheduled for the same period. This means the error would display “Overlapping Outage exist for this locationNum. Outage Id : OUTAGE-A-123.”
