Upgrade Planning for Language String Migration

Upgrades from: All Supported Siebel releases.

Environments: Development, Test and Production.

Databases: All databases.

Locale-specific language values can change from one release of Siebel Business Applications to another. Some ENU values shipped with your upgrade might no longer map to language strings from your previous release. For instance, in a German environment, the English word Individual mapped in previous releases to the German word Einzelperson, but in the subsequent release now maps to the German word Individuell. To ensure correct data migration, it is advised that you review your previous upglocale.lang_code file against the current file of the same name to determine whether any language strings require changes to ensure that they properly map when the upgrade utilities are run.
