About Language Codes

Language codes help you to identify the native language spoken by guests and contacts. The language value in profiles can be sent to integrated systems such as in-room video and voice mail systems. For Sales Accounts the language value can be used to define the language for stationery such as folios and statements.

When the Multi-language OPERA Control is active:

  • You can setup translation for code descriptions, per language, using the Manage Translations link throughout the Administration menu.

  • The language value in a profile determines the stationery template and language translation used for generating confirmations, registration cards, receipts, and folios. For company and agents, the language code determines the template and the language translation used for generating folios, statements, reminder letters, contracts, and banquet event orders. For more information, see About Stationery Editor (Oracle Business Intelligence (BI) Publisher).

Language codes are also used for translation of the OPERA Cloud user interface; menus, messages, actions, links and field labels are displayed in the language setup in your user profile; you can change the language for your session in  Settings.
