Localizing Metadata

Localizing Metadata

You can localize all metadata in Data Director. Metadata provides additional information about data. For example, metadata for a Person business entity includes the persons first name, last name, birth date and tax ID.
  1. In the Provisioning Tool, click
    Configuration
    General Settings.
    The
    General Settings
     page appears.
  2. In the
    General Settings
     panel, select
    Metadata Localization
     from the list.
  3. In the
    Metadata Localization
     panel, under
    Metadata Bundle
    , click
    Create Template
    .
    The
    besMetadata.zip
     file downloads.
    If you have previously created a template bundle, click
    Export
     to download the
    besMetadata.zip
     file, edit the file, and click
    Import
     to import the template bundle.
  4. Extract the
    besMetadata.zip
     file.
  5. Open the
    besMetadata.properties
     file in an editor of your choice.
  6. Add the localized values to the
    besMetadata.properties
     file.
  7. Save the file with the appropriate language code and country code suffix.
    For example, to localize metadata in French, the language code is
    fr
     and the county code is
    FR
    . Save the file as
    besMetadata_fr_FR.properties
  8. Compress the properties file into a zip.
  9. Under
    Metadata Bundle,
     click
    Import.
    The language metadata bundle is imported.
