You can use languages in master date information, both on the normal master date information and the extended text.

So for instance, if you go to the information code list in here on the top level, If I want to add languages to the extended text, I need to go into languages on my Danish languages.

So here it’s just saying Danish, uh, I could write whatever because the point is I want to go further into the extended text and this is the extended text for the Danish language or the Danish caption for this one.

So I can add extended, uh, languages to extended text on the top level.

Likewise, on the middle level, if I’m looking at information value, the example in here, I have my information person in here and I have some extended text saying if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me.

If I’m looking at my languages and I have a Danish language and I’m looking at the extended text, it will say the same text here in Danish that I can set up.

And likewise, on the lowest level, if you go directly to the customer, you can add on the customer languages.

But normally you would just, on a customer, you would add it directly, but on the item, for example, you would like to maybe add extended text directly on the specifications for the items.

The point is when I’m creating a sales order,
and let me just try to create a sales order for a a Danish customer.

’cause we just looked at the Danish languages.

So I know this customer has a language code of Danish.

This means when I’m looking at my master date information on this sales teller, all the text will be in Danish.

And of course if it was all other languages, it will follow that and like my on the sales line, serial numbers, purchasers, et cetera.

So languages extended text is following the system all, all the way around.

And you can use it for your e-commerce, your web shops, your catalogs, your documentations, all different kinds of document you want to bring.
