UOM Literals Button
When translating UOM for different languages, the symbols displayed can vary from one language to another. To accommodate these variations, UOM attributes are now translated and you can now view UOMs per their selected default language. This will help with ease of use because you can make UI names specific to your language.
The following languages are supported:
| Language Code |
|---|
| 繁體中文 (traditional Chinese) |
| Francais (French) |
| Deutsch (German) |
| Italiano (Italian) |
| 日本語 (Japanese) |
| 한국어 (Korean) |
| Polskie (Polish) |
| Pусский (Russian) |
| ไทย (Thai) |
| Türkçe (Turkish) |
| 简体中文 (simplified Chinese) |
| Français-CA (French-CA) |
| English |
| Português (Portuguese) |
| Español (Spanish) |
| Hrvatski (Croation) |
| Čeština (Czech) |
| Slovenčina (Slovak) |
| Українська (Ukranian) |
| Nederlands (Dutch) |
| Suomi (Finnish) |
| Norsk (Norwegian) |
From the UOM UI, click the UOM Literals button to add a literal. The UOM Literals button includes the following details:
- The UOM literals button is available only when a UOM is selected
- The UOM Literals UI includes the following columns:
- UOM Code
- Language Code
- Translated UOM Code
- Translated UOM description

For example, let’s say your UOM is “Cubed” and your Language Code is Español. You might want your Translated UOM code to be “Cub” and your Translated UOM description to be “Cubicado.”
