Translating content solution assets that are stored in Content Platform Engine

You can translate content assets of your solution, which are stored in Content Platform Engine, by translating the display names of case types, document classes, activities, case properties, and choice list items by using the Administration Console for Content Platform Engine.

About this task

All of the built-in Content Platform Engine content properties are translated by Content Platform Engine. Depending on the browser locale or the application language value in the Change Language and Locale Settings window, locale-sensitive system property display names are displayed in Case Client.

Procedure

To translate the content artifacts:

  1. In Administration Console for Content Platform Engine, browse to locate the object store that contains the artifacts that you want to translate.
  2. Click Actions and then select Localize Class Definitions, Localize Property Templates, or Localize Choice Lists.
  3. Select a language.
  4. Locate the artifacts in Administration Console for Content Platform Engine and enter localized values for the display names.

    Case types Use Localize Class Definitions under Folder > Base Case > Case Folder. Translate the case types that are defined in the solution.
    Document classes Use Localize Class Definitions under Document class. If your case management application displays only the document classes that are defined in a solution, you can translate only those document classes. If your case management application displays all of the document classes, translate all document classes.
    Activities Use Localize Class Definitions under Activity > Case Activity. Translate only discretionary activities. You do not have to translate the automatic and manual activity names because Case Client does not display translated automatic and manual activity names.
    Property templates Use Localize Property Templates. Order property templates by symbolic name. All of the case properties for a solution are displayed together in the list because they all have the same solution prefix.
    Choice lists Use Localize Choice Lists. Find all of the choice lists with the same solution prefix. Translate the display names of the choice list values. You do not have to translate the display name of the choice list.
  5. Click OK when you are done.
    It might take several minutes for the changes to take effect on all nodes in the Content Platform Engine cluster.
