Language handling on Master Data

Transcription of video

Let’s take an example here from customer number 20,000.

If I go into my texts, I have different information codes and also by them the contacts. And in my contact list, I have added the different contacts that I use for different customers or even vendors.

So on the contact for Sanne, I would like to add a language code.

Normally, Sanne is – the text for Sanne will be written in English but here in the language definition, I could define languages in other text.

So, if I’m communicating with a Danish customer with a Danish language code, I would like to read or to add this instead which is in Danish.

And this way, I could add as many different languages that I want.

So, this is the way of working with languages on different information codes and different layers.

Let’s take another example. If I go back to my customers, I’m going into my specifications. Now, I want to modify something and this is actually used on the item but I could still go this way, it shouldn’t matter.

So, if I go into my information code, I should be able here to find the gender which is normally an information that I’m using on the item card because I want to tell whether my bikes are male or female bike of children.

And if I go into my information value on the gender, I can see here what the values are.

And, for instance, my information value male, it has a description of male but if we go into my language, I can see here that the description for male in Danish and German is called different things.

So, in this way, I could use information to switch between different languages and different companies of dynamic for instance.

if I’m going here on the Master Data Information Setup, I could also define the default language in this company which means that I can merge languages into my description depending on the company setup.
