    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    You can set translation prefixes to appear only in the current user session or to appear in all sessions.

    Translation prefixes map to translation tables as follows.

    Tableau 1. Translation prefixes mapped to tables
    Prefix Table Navigation
    TRF Translated Name / Fields [sys_translated] System Localization > Translated Names / Fields
    MSG Messages [sys_ui_message] System Localization > Messages
    GMLD Field Label [sys_documentation] System Localization > Field Labels
    TRT Translated Text [sys_translated_text] System Localization > Translated Text
    CHC Choice [sys_choice] System Localization > Choices
    Remarque :
    A few strings may not display translatable prefixes. In this case, the string is not stored on any of these tables. Examples of this behavior include:
    • Text embedded in images, such as the buttons in the Service Catalog.
    • Text defined by properties, such as the text which follows the banner.

    Procédure

    1. Enable translation prefixes on field labels.
      • To enable prefixes for the current user session, navigate to All > System Localization > Enable I18N Debugging.
      • To enable prefixes for all sessions, navigate to All > System Properties > System Localization and set Display translation prefix on translatable strings to Yes.
