Translate the process element into supported languages

Translate items such as processes, skins, categories, SLA, work types, work type columns and page renditions.

When you add a language and provide translation, at runtime all the data appears in the correct language set for the browser either through browser settings or through the Language Selector control. If the Allow Multilingual Processes option in System Settings is turned off, you can translate the process. However, the processes will only appear in the base language at runtime.

  1. On the Home page, click Process Designer > Translation.
  2. On the Form Designer Explorer, click Processes and select the process to translate.

    The following items for the selected process appear in the Base Language (language the item was created in).

    • Process Name

    • Process Description

    • Node Name: Lists all nodes in the process.

    • Node Description: Lists description of all the nodes in the process.

    • Milestones Name: Lists all milestones associated with the process.

    • State Name: Lists all states associated with the process.

    • Role Name : Lists all roles associated with the process.

      Note If the description for any of the above items is empty, then the item is not displayed for translation.

      The overridden items within skins are also available for translation.

  3. Click Select Languages.

    The Languages page appears.

  4. Select the languages for translation. To select all languages, select the Select All check box.
  5. Click Close.

    For every selected language, a column is added for entry of the translated text.

  6. Enter the equivalent term for each attribute in the columns for the supported languages.
  7. Click Save.

    Resource files for translation are generated, and you can view the item as it would appear in the supported languages at runtime.

    Similarly, translate other items such as skins, categories, SLA, work types, work type columns and page renditions.
