This page is for application builders who want to translate the labels and grid headings in their application.

An application can have one translation table. In the table, you can define many entry codes. Each entry code must exactly match a text strings that appears somewhere in the application form labels or grid headers. For each entry code, you can define the translated string, and language, in a translation cells. You can define multiple translation cells, one for each language into which you want to translate the string.

Setting up translation also involves linking the translation table to the Locales defined for the application, see Translating an Application Interface for details.
