Commerce Reference Store incorporates internationalization features in two ways:
It includes two related regional stores, CRS Store US and CRS Store Germany, that share a catalog.
It includes translations for multiple languages. CRS Store US and CRS Home have English and Spanish translations while CRS Store Germany has English and German translations.
The related regional stores described in the first bullet above are implemented using ATG’s multisite functionality. Detailed information on this implementation is included in the Multisite Features chapter. It is a good idea to read the Multisite Features chapter first, before continuing with this chapter. The remainder of this chapter focuses on how translations work in Commerce Reference Store and how to create a new related regional store.
Note: Related regional stores are also called country stores.
