Product Setup - General - Multiple Language Setup field descriptions

Fields are presented in alphabetical order.

Description

The product description.

Extended

Specify an extended product description, if necessary. If you specify more than 70 characters, the Extended field reverts to a horizontal scrolling field to accommodate the extra characters. You can type up to 256 characters in the field. This description is printed in addition to the text in the Description 1 and 2 fields on reports if the option, Display Extended Product Description on Reports, in SA Admin Options - Products - Defaults is selected. The Extended description appears in inventory setup and inquiry functions regardless of the Admin Option.

Language

Select the language for the product description that prints on pick tickets, acknowledgments, purchase orders, warehouse transfers, and invoices for a particular customer or vendor. After you select a language and specify a description in that language and save your changes, the appropriate documents will print the product description you specified if the language code has been defined for the customer or vendor in Customer Setup and Vendor Setup.

You can print the product descriptions in the language defined for your Company or the Warehouse on the Product Entry Physical Count Report and Product Entry Cycle Count Report.

You can specify the language in which you want to print the product descriptions in the Language field in Product Warehouse Description Setup-General. Then select whether to print the product descriptions in the language defined for your company or the warehouse in the Physical Count Language and Cycle Count Language fields on the Count view.

Note: The product descriptions are printed in the warehouse language only when the language that you select in the Language field in Product Warehouse Description Setup-General has matching product descriptions available on the Multiple Language Setup window in Product Setup-General. Otherwise, the product descriptions set up in Product Setup are printed.
