Translating Import Map Name and Description

If the Multi-Language feature is enabled in an account, saved import owners and account administrators can define translations for saved CSV imports' names and descriptions so they match the language of the NetSuite user interface.

When the NetSuite user interface is set to a different language, translated import names and descriptions display in the Saved CSV Imports list page.

Before you can translate import map names and descriptions, translation languages need to be selected at Setup > Company > General Preferences, on the Languages subtab. For details, see Configuring Multiple Languages.

Note:

The Languages subtab at Setup > Company > General Preferences lists both system-supported languages that can be used for the NetSuite user interface (and are available at Home > Set Preferences), and additional languages that can used for website translations only (and are not available at Home > Set Preferences). You should only enter translations for role names in system-supported languages, because these are the only languages that can be displayed in the user interface.

When languages have been set, you can enter translations in the CSV Import Map Translation dialog, available from the Saved CSV Imports list page.

Important:

It is not possible to translate in the UI saved imports you have uploaded through SDF.

To define translations for a saved CSV import map:

  1. Go to Setup > Import/Export > Saved CSV Imports.

  2. On the Saved CSV Imports page, click Translate for the import.

    Translate field on the Saved CSV Imports page.
