How to Install Language Packs

To install language packs on all your environments, contact your help desk. For more information about language packs, see Oracle Applications Cloud Service Definition - Language Packs (2073202.1) on My Oracle Support at https://support.oracle.com. There's no limit to the number of language packs you can ask for in one service request. But you must only install the language packs you need to conduct your day-to-day business because of these reasons:

  • Once you request a language pack, the installation will be scheduled for all your environments, including production, staging, and test environments, so that they're all in sync.

  • It takes time and resources to install language packs. So you might get extended outages during updates, especially if you have four or more language packs installed in your environments.

  • Once you install any language, you can't uninstall it later.

You can view all available languages, whether they're already installed or available for installation and translation. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, use the Manage Languages task in the Application Extensions functional area. Each dialect is treated as a separate language. Generally, you don't need to edit any of the fields on the Manage Languages page, unless absolutely necessary.
