function Copy-DbaCustomError {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            Copy-DbaCustomError migrates custom errors (user defined messages), by the custom error ID, from one SQL Server to another.
 
        .DESCRIPTION
            By default, all custom errors are copied. The -CustomError parameter is auto-populated for command-line completion and can be used to copy only specific custom errors.
 
            If the custom error already exists on the destination, it will be skipped unless -Force is used. The us_english version must be created first. If you drop the us_english version, all the other languages will be dropped for that specific ID as well.
 
        .PARAMETER Source
            Source SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and server version must be SQL Server version 2000 or higher.
 
        .PARAMETER SourceSqlCredential
            Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins instead of Windows Authentication (AKA Integrated or Trusted). To use:
 
            $scred = Get-Credential, then pass $scred object to the -SourceSqlCredential parameter.
 
            Windows Authentication will be used if SourceSqlCredential is not specified. SQL Server does not accept Windows credentials being passed as credentials.
 
            To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user.
 
        .PARAMETER Destination
            Destination SQL Server. You must have sysadmin access and the server must be SQL Server 2000 or higher.
 
        .PARAMETER DestinationSqlCredential
            Allows you to login to servers using SQL Logins instead of Windows Authentication (AKA Integrated or Trusted). To use:
 
            $dcred = Get-Credential, then pass this $dcred to the -DestinationSqlCredential parameter.
 
            Windows Authentication will be used if DestinationSqlCredential is not specified. SQL Server does not accept Windows credentials being passed as credentials.
 
            To connect as a different Windows user, run PowerShell as that user.
 
        .PARAMETER CustomError
            The custom error(s) to process. This list is auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all custom errors will be processed.
 
        .PARAMETER ExcludeCustomError
            The custom error(s) to exclude. This list is auto-populated from the server.
 
        .PARAMETER WhatIf
            If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run.
 
        .PARAMETER Confirm
            If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state.
 
        .PARAMETER Silent
            If this switch is enabled, the internal messaging functions will be silenced.
 
        .PARAMETER Force
            If this switch is enabled, the custom error will be dropped and recreated if it already exists on Destination.

        .EXAMPLE
            Copy-DbaCustomError -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster
 
            Copies all server custom errors from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster using Windows credentials. If custom errors with the same name exist on sqlcluster, they will be skipped.
 
        .EXAMPLE
            Copy-DbaCustomError -Source sqlserver2014a -SourceSqlCredential $scred -Destination sqlcluster -DestinationSqlCredential $dcred -CustomError 60000 -Force
 
            Copies only the custom error with ID number 60000 from sqlserver2014a to sqlcluster using SQL credentials for sqlserver2014a and Windows credentials for sqlcluster. If a custom error with the same name exists on sqlcluster, it will be updated because -Force was used.
 
        .EXAMPLE
            Copy-DbaCustomError -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -ExcludeCustomError 60000 -Force
 
            Copies all the custom errors found on sqlserver2014a except the custom error with ID number 60000 to sqlcluster. If a custom error with the same name exists on sqlcluster, it will be updated because -Force was used.
 
        .EXAMPLE
            Copy-DbaCustomError -Source sqlserver2014a -Destination sqlcluster -WhatIf -Force
 
            Shows what would happen if the command were executed using force.
