Form Translation

Within Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software, users work with forms to access, view, change, and enter information. Forms consist of many items, such as radio buttons, text fields, check boxes, and column headings that are based on data dictionary items.

Forms can be accessed from multiple JD Edwards EnterpriseOne programs and menus. The Form Name begins with the letter W, followed by the application code and a letter. For example, in the Form Name W0101A, W indicates that it is a form, 0101 indicates that the form belongs to program P0101, and A indicates that it is form A within the application. When you translate forms, you translate all the single line items for that form, such as form title, controls, menu hyper controls, grids items, and so on.

You use the F79750: Form Design Aid (FDA) translation tool to translate form items from the source language into the target language. (Only applications that are created using JD Edwards application Form Design Aid are translated using the F79750: Form Design Aid (FDA) translation tool.) The Form Design Aid (FDA) translation tool:

• Displays form items in the context that they appear in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software

• Displays related data dictionary items when available

• Contains reference features

• Tracks productivity
