Language support
Maximo® Manage is available in a number of languages. You can specify languages when you activate the application.
- Browser language setting
- If content is available for the language that users select for their browser, the application shows that language. If the language that is selected in the browser is not available, the application displays the base language.
- Preferred language setting
- In IBM® Maximo Application Suite, users can select a preferred locale, language, and time zone when they set up their profile. If you change the user's preferred language setting in Maximo Manage, future synchronizations do not overwrite the setting from Maximo Application Suite.
- Application language settings
- When
Maximo Manage is deployed, you can
select a base language, which is the default language for the application. By default, the base
language is English. If you select a different language, the language is permanently set as the base
language, and you cannot change it in subsequent deployments. If the base language is not specified
when the application is deployed, the default value is used instead. If the default value is used,
you can change the base language when you redeploy.
The base language can be changed only once. After it is changed, it cannot be changed back to English or any other language.
You can select other languages when you activate the application. You cannot remove languages after the application is activated.
If you use IBM Db2® and plan to install a language other than English, select the checkbox for Db2 Vargraphic when you configure your database.
To add a language, on the Activation page, in the Base field and the Additional field, select the language code.
