in language file there is NoRecord phrase.
it used when:
1- table have no record
2- or current search/filter have no result
3- or current user have no access to list any record
it's better if admin can define separate phrase for each case and customize it for each table.
for example:
1- No Invoices Found!. You can create new invoice by clicking here.
2- No Invoice Found, please reviw your search filter. your current filter is (Id>23 & title='car'). click here to goto advanced search section.
3- No Invoice Found for you. please place an order by clicking here.
