Handle Company Translations

Explanation

Use this activity to add new translations or to modify existing translations of company related attributes.

When a company is created, then all available translations in either the source company or in the source company template are defined for the new company. The basic idea is to support translations of texts related to data that can be a part of a Company Template, i.e., mainly descriptions or other similar type of texts.
There are some exceptions where the translation handling supports Logical Units that are not part of the Create Company concept.

The company translation database is a part of the IFS/Enterprise component and can be accessed and used by essentially any component. On-line modification/addition of translations can be done in the Company Attribute Translations window.

Note the following:

Prerequisites

A company must be available, either created in a fresh installation or created in a previous release and upgraded to the current release.

System Effects

The main benefit of the company translations is that translatable texts related to basic data in a company can be described in several languages in the same database. The translations will, for example, in basic data windows, always be displayed in current language.
