Add and Export Translations
Overview
The Jet Data Manager supports the input of multiple display languages. These display languages can be used by front-end tools to display captions in the user's language. In order for these display languages to be used they must be entered into the project. This article details the process of entering these translations and then exporting the translations for integration into our master project on the CubeStore.
For instructions on how to use translations in Excel see: Changing the Local Identifier in Excel to See Other Language Translations.
