Default Codes

Within JD Edwards Translation Tools, all translatable items must have a status code. Status codes indicate:

• The status of each translatable item.

• Whether the item is ready to be packaged in the software.

• The location of the item in the translation process.

As you translate, you enter the appropriate status codes to ensure that the source terms do not appear in the software. During the software mastering process, only translated items with these statuses appear in the software:

• Complete (status = 11).

• FDA/RDA DD Default (status = 15).

• Review (status = 25).

If a translated item has any other status codes assigned, the source term for that translated item appears in the software.

In addition to the status codes, two other types of codes further define the translatable item:

• Reason

• Skip

The Delta Process updates the Reason code to indicate the type of change (for example, a text or size change). You update the Skip code to indicate why you did not translate the item (for example, the item is test data or a translation is not needed for the language). If you assign a Skip code to an item, the Source text appears in the software.
