Localization

Applications created with MYOB Acumatica Framework can be localized on the presentation, business logic, and database level owing to:

• Standard Microsoft.NET localization mechanism is implemented for localizing the presentation layer.
• All messages returned from the business logic layer can be localized through the dictionary mechanism. For details about how to implement message localization in your code, see To Localize Application Messages.
• The runtime environment of MYOB Acumatica Framework supports the Unicode standard to store and operate with data in a non-ANSI format.
• Information like addresses or product descriptions can be stored in special, language-specific, database fields and presented in the user selected language. For details on implementation of such fields, see To Work with Multi-Language Fields.

MYOB Acumatica Framework provides a built-in utility that makes it possible for a user to localize the product. Once localization is entered and applied, the application does not require any recompilation or reinstallation. Also, localization can be exported, imported, and merged.

For more information about how to use the built-in localization mechanism, see Translation Process in the System Administration Guide.
