Translating Globally Enabled Fields

This topic is part of Setting Up Global Data.

The following sample task describes how to translate a globally enabled field, using the Product Description field from the preceding sample procedure as an example.

To translate a globally enabled field

  1. Expose the view that contains the field that you want to translate.

    Note: In the example provided previously in this topic, the view would already be exposed, because Products is an object that is global-data ready.
  2. Navigate to the Administration - Product screen, then the Products view.

  3. In the Products list, select a product that you want to translate.

  4. In the More Info form, on the link bar, click Translations.

  5. Enter the translated names and language codes for the product.
