You can localize fields of a record definition so that the end users of an application can view the application data in their locale during run time. An administrator must first add the locale information in the system and then define the fields of a record definition that are localizable.
Supported languages
BMC Helix Platform supports the following languages for localizing the fields of a record definition:
- English—en
- French—fr
- German—de
- Italian—it
- Japanese—ja
- Korean—ko
- Portuguese (Brazil)—pt_BR
- Russian—ru
- Simplified Chinese—zh-CN
- Spanish—es
- Swedish—sv
- Dutch—nl
- Danish—da
- Norwegian—no
You can set the required language by changing your browser locale.
