Translations

Purpose

Defines a set of translated strings for the translatable attributes of a study component. A Translations definition is a child of the study component for which it provides translated strings. The Translations element must be the last child element in the study component definition. If you translate any attributes, include translation definitions for all translatable attributes that are part of the study component definition.

Note: When you use a Translations element, the LANGUAGE attribute of the associated study component is required.
