Adding Translations for SimVen Operations in Simphony

This feature is only available in Simphony version 3.0 and later. Before performing this procedure, set up languages in the EMC. The Oracle Hospitality Simphony Configuration Guide contains more information about setting languages.

You can translate the dialog boxes and messages that appear when editing standsheets from the POS client by adding the translations as an extension application.

  1. Select the Enterprise, property, revenue center, or zone, click Setup and Extension Application.
  2. Double-click the SimVen extension application record to open it, and then click Insert Application Content.
  3. In the Zoneable Key field, enter SimVenText_, followed by the Text File Name with the translation defined in the Languages module for the relevant language.

    For example, if the Text File Name is DE, the Zoneable Key is SimVenText_DE.

  4. Enter a Description and click OK.
  5. Rename the text file with the translation to match the exact name as the Zoneable Key (for example, SimVenText_DE), and then place it in the [Drive Letter]:\MICROS\Simphony2\Tools\Dbupgrade\SimVen\Text folder.
  6. On the Designer tab, select 23 - Text for the Content Type, click Import from a file, and then browse and select the text file from the location in Step 5.
  7. Click Save.
