Defining Languages

The Language Maintenance screen allows you to define languages that can be used across the system. The languages defined on this screen impact the following areas in Personify:

·            Product Maintenance: on the Brief Description and Long Descriptions screen in Product Maintenance, you can define the description of product which displays on the Product Listing and Product Detail web modules in e-Business. Each descriptions must have a selected language, which is defined on the Language Maintenance screen. The purpose of defining a language for a product description is in case your organization wants to display the product description on the web in another language.

·            User Maintenance: when defining Personify users, you must select the user's language, which is defined on the Language Maintenance screen. This is for informational purposes only.
