Making Sure the LOV Type Is Translatable


A translatable type is a list of values type that can be modified, or translated into additional languages, without affecting the functionality of your application. This is indicated in the Translate setting in the List of Values Administration view in Siebel eBusiness Applications.

If an item is translatable, it can be modified without affecting Siebel eBusiness Applications functionality.

This task is part of Process of Enabling MLOVs.

To determine if an LOV type is translatable

  1. Connect to the server database using Siebel eBusiness Applications.
  2. From the application-level menu, choose View > Site Map > Application Administration >List of Values.
  3. For the LOV type that you are interested in, look in the Translate list column for a check mark.

If you add an LOV type, set this list column according to your configuration. Do not change any existing settings shipped with Siebel eBusiness Applications, because these are set to reflect the Siebel eBusiness Applications configuration. Changing this setting will not allow you to enable an LOV type.
