In Matlab when issuing a custom warning, the message-id is not being recognized. How do I correct this?

I am issuing a warning in my code like -

   warning('Custom:data-missing','Can''t access Customer Terms for data point #%d.',i)

When this is triggered on the command window I see

   Warning: Custom:data-missing 
   > In asr_stfr_terms at 97

Why is this happening? Instead of the warning message, why is Matlab printing the message_id?

It doesn't like the hyphen:

warning('Custom:data_missing','Can''t access Customer Terms for data point #%d.',i)

Thanks! Seems a bit silly in the hindsight.
