Internationalization Features

Some aspects of internationalization include:

  • A base version enabled for international environments

  • Localizable items separated from the core functionality on which they are running

  • Software that takes advantage of supporting platforms, such as the Windows operating systems and the database platform the software is running on

Your Siebel applications have been internationalized. Specific features include:

  • A base version, enabled for international environments

  • Support for localization built into the data model

  • Support for separate language-specific modules (where necessary)

    For example, some resource library files (such as DLL files) are language-independent, while other such files are language-dependent. In general, language-dependent files are located in language-specific installation directories.

  • Euro (€) currency support

  • String, number, and date handling

  • Support for multilingual user data, such as:

    • Multilingual picklists (MLOV seed data)

    • Multilingual data for product- and catalog-related entities

  • Support for major Unicode and non-Unicode (traditional) character sets

    Note: Oracle does not support new Siebel CRM deployments on non-Unicode databases. All new Siebel CRM deployments must be Unicode.

    For a list of the languages supported by Siebel CRM, and the supported code pages for each database, see 1513102.1 (Article ID) on My Oracle Support.

  • The ability to support both left-to-right and right-to-left displays, referred to as bidirectionality
