The Kuali Coeus application allows the watermark to be customized using the attributes such as watermark verbiage, position, alignment, size and color of the watermark. For each protocol status, a text or an image watermark can be chosen. The Watermark Text is configurable. It allows sixty characters and can have free form text, protocol specific data or both.
 If an implementing institution wants to have 
protocol data appear within the watermark, the protocol data field name must be 
enclosed within parenthesis. For e.g. to have the protocol approval date appear 
with a verbiage of  “Approved on”, the Watermark Text for the PROTOCOL 
STATUS of  “Approved” (Status Code = 200) should be  “Approved on: 
{PROTOCOL_INITIAL_APPROVAL_DATE}.

(known as replacement parameters) that are allowed to be included within the 
watermark text. The replacement parameters are as follows:
