Translation Management

Translation Management tab is used to manage translations for the language tags in the system. This tab provides both possibilities to search for and translate language tags directly in the interface, and tools for export/import xml files.

At the top of the page NSP Standard Language is displayed. This language is defined when NSP is installed and it is the master language in all translations.

In dropdown below you select Translation Language for which you want to see translation tags. Dropdown contains all Active languages, see section Language Management.

After choosing Translation Language the list with all translation tags for the chosen language, and additional options will appear.

The list displays five columns:

   Translation Key: Name of the language key used internally in the system to define the tag.

   Type: System Defined or User Defined.

   NSP Standard Language Text: Text value of the tag in NSP Standard Language.

   Translated Text: Text value of the tag in selected Translation Language.

   Locked for import: If this column is marked  this language tag is locked for updates via import of xml file. Old value will be kept also if xml file contains a new translation. If you have customer customized translations you should activate the lock (lock is enabled/disabled in Edit form), then the value will be kept when you upgrade NSP to new versions and import new xml file provided by NSP manufacturer or vendor.

 

Rightmost on the row there is an action button Edit. See Edit Translation keys.
