Set up translation parameters
Activity Flow

You can configure RapidValue to enable translations.

To enable translations, enable the Translations configuration key. As a result, all translation capabilities in RapidValue are made available in the user interface. Also, the multi-language support in the (pre)views is enabled. If translations are not required, disable the Translations configuration key. This improves performance and simplifies the user interface.

You can configure RapidValue to enable multi-language name display. You can use this to view your RapidValue records in two languages. This can be useful, for example, if your current user language is French and you imported an English solution.

Note: Translated names are only shown for the identification names of your RapidValue records. Multi-language name display only makes sense if the names are translated to your current user language.

To enable multi-language name display, enable the Translations > Translation Fields configuration key.

As a result, on the:

• List pages and dialogs, the name is shown twice:
  • The left name field shows the original name of the record.
  • The right name field shows the record name in the current user language.
• Detail pages, the name is shown twice:
  • The editable name field shows the original name of the record.
  • The non-editable name field shows the record name in the current user language.
• Business process hierarchies, the names in the hierarchy are shown in the current user language.

Note: The original name of the record is the originally entered identifier of the record. So, it can be any language.

If multi-language name display isn't required, disable the Translations > Translation Fields configuration key. This improves performance and simplifies the user interface.

You can use Google Translate to automatically translate RapidValue texts. To use the Google Translate translation service, you need a key from Google Translate. To activate the automatic translation, in the RapidValue Parameters, enter the key as provided by Google Translate.
