In Data Director with business entities, you can display elements of the user interface in any supported language. As the MDM administrator, you can localize metadata, labels, error messages, and lookup tables. Data Director supports the following languages:
English US
English UK
Portuguese
French
Spanish
German
Russian
Japanese
Mandarin
Korean
Localizing Metadata
You can localize metadata elements of the Data Director user interface to display the language of your choice. Examples of metadata elements are menu names, field names, tasks and business entity names.
To localize metadata, in the Provisioning tool, download the
besMetadata.properties
zip file and edit the
bundle.properties
file for the language that you want to display. For example, for French localization, edit the
bundle_fr.properties
file. To localize task actions and task types, you must manually edit the values in the
besMetadata.properties
file by using the
taskaction.<action name>
format.
Localizing Label and Error Messages
You can localize labels and error messages of Data Director to display the language of your choice. To localize labels and error messages, you must run the
LocalizationSetup
script from the Resources Toolkit. The script is part of the MDM Hub installation package.
For more information about localizing labels and error messages, see the
Multidomain MDM Version 10.3 Provisioning Tool Guide.
Localizing Lookup Tables
All lookup tables support localization. For example, the Gender, Country, and State lookup tables are mapped to the corresponding Gender, Country and State localization lookup tables.
For more information about localizing metadata, labels, error messages, and lookup tables, see the
Multidomain MDM Version 10.3 Provisioning Tool Guide.
