10 Translation for Internationalization

Simphony allows you to translate the user interface to the local language and maintain translation files for the EMC. You can configure up to four languages to appear on workstations, guest checks, and customer receipts. Simphony upgrades earlier versions of translation files into later versions, and translates all languages defined in the system. You cannot translate core translation files as they are managed internally. The Simphony installer updates existing translations and automatically inserts added language files.

Configuring languages also translates user interface messages on workstations, text labels, options, help text, and error messages in the EMC.

You must manually translate menu items, touchscreen buttons, and EMC records.
