B Multi-Language Support
With the introduction of Multi-Locale Support, the user interfaces can be viewed in various languages. The display language is a selection on the login screen.
In addition to the base language (American English, for example, en_US), the following languages are currently supported for BSP, by installing the associated Language Pack.
Note:
BSP’s planning interfaces are currently only available in American English.Table B-1 Languages supported by BSP

Depending on the type of the rule, the Name/Description specified during create/edit is either attached to the login locale or is stored independent of the login locale. The selection of the login locale, therefore, governs which assumptions/rules are visible, and which are not visible. The following illustrates the visibility of assumptions and rules, across languages in the 8.0.0.0.0 release. This applies to all Summary screens, embedded selections in subsequent screens, and so on.

* A future release (TBD) will expand visibility for many of these application object types, to provide visibility regardless of logged-in locale.
** These object types are visible across all languages because the Name and Descriptions are not stored in translation-compatible structures, which is different from the storage format for AAI objects like Dimension Management, Filters, and Expressions.
