Hi @Raziya Sultana  ,

The message comes from -- "sys_ui_message" table 

  

Update the text as per the requirement.

Note: It impacts where the message is populated

Hello,

You can write a onload client script as below. However it would be DOM manipulation which is not considered best practice:-

function onLoad() {
   var el = g_form.getElement("sys_display.incident.watch_list");
   if (!el) {
   return;
   }
   el.placeholder = 'Enter User';
}

Refer below post:-
