Supporting multiple languages and translation 
SAP POS applications can be implemented in a number of languages and configured to support additional languages according to users’ preferences or store requirements. This section outlines all the functions and utilities which allow you to implement your language strategy.
Configure a main store language at installation with access to other defined languages (provided these have been loaded to the system language databases.)
Designate an employee’s main language which may be the same or different than the main store language with the ability to have the application interfaces displayed to them in their preferred language. This feature also allows you to let the employee override the language set for them and choose a different language at signon or on-the-fly while working in the application (POS only.)
Use text extraction utilities to create text files to submit for translation. (Utilities vary by component)
Use text import utilities to apply translated files back into the system. (Utilities vary by component)
Maintain or edit translated texts to suit your needs
Create on-the-spot translations for POS-bound configuration description fields. The target language does not need to be one that is loaded in the language database (but the selected language and its ISO code must be registered in the Xpress Languages screen. Applies to the Configurator application only.)
Access the multi-language files when offline from the language database.
Note
These capabilities represent the language support features of the overall TGM product suite and differ from component to component. Distinctions in the implementation of the language features will be addressed per component where relevant.
