Daniel gave you an example on how to do this. You cannot use vb message box feature in Onestream. You will have to use a dashboard and show a message there. Nick, for your use case, you'll  have to move your XFBR logic to a dashboard extender rule and then show the message.

Hi Celvin,

I know this is possible in a Dashboard Extender.

If there was a sole purpose of showing the dashboard, I could have refereed the XFBR logic to the Dashboard Extender. But I don't think that is possible in this case.
