Boxes that Have Multi-Language Support

Once you have enabled multilingual user input, the system displays a link with a language ISO code next to the supported text boxes in the system. When you click the link, the Translations dialog box appears, where you can enter translations. For a description of the dialog box, see Translations Dialog Box.

By default, the system supports multilingual user input for the boxes listed in this topic. You can expand this list by means of customization. Also, if the PXDBString attribute for a box from the list was customized in the earlier versions, after upgrade to MYOB Advanced 6 the box will not have multi-language support. For details, see Customization of Field Attributes in DAC Extensions in the Customization Guide.

In this topic, you will find lists, broken down by module, of the boxes that have multi-language support.
