6 Translations

The Translations Setup screen present in EICS enables you to maintain Server side translations like Context Type, Carrier, Reason codes, Notifications, server side error messages and so on, for all the supported locales. The system supports the following locales: English (American), French (Parisian), German, Spanish (Standard), Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Russian, Italian, Turkish, Hungarian, Dutch, Greek, Polish, Swedish, Croatian.

New translation records can only be added via Data setup screens on EICS like Inventory Adjustment Reason, Shipment Reason, Carrier, Carrier Service and so on. Addition of records is not allowed on the Translation Setup screen. If a new record gets added via Data setup screens, the translation record for it gets displayed in the Translation setup screen automatically. These translation records will have a translated value for the locale that data record was created in. You need to provide values for other locales for which you can use the translation setup screen.

You can look up the translation record and update it with the translation. The translation setup screen does not support deletion of translation records.

The screen is accessed via the menu: Admin / Translations / Translation Setup. You must have 'Access Translations' permission for the Translations and Translations setup menu option to display. The screen displays an empty table by default. Choose a locale in order for the table to be populated with the translation records for that locale.

You can select a record to edit. You can update both the translation and description. Any changes made to the translation records from this screen will reflect both in the mobile application and EICS. The changes made will reflect in the applications immediately.
