Database table considerations

  • You should only install a single language pack to a particular database. In theory, you can install multiple language packs into a single database. Because Optiva descriptions only support a single language (for objects like Parameters, Set Codes, etc.), it is generally only practical to support a single language per Optiva database
  • Available language codes must be defined in the FSLANGUAGE table. The codes must be valid Language Codes in the FSCULTUREINFO table.
  • For the web client, the language code is determined by Infor OS or the browser. If Optiva is running outside of Infor OS , then the language code is determined by the browser.
  • When a language code is added to the FSLANGUAGE table, a column is displayed in the Enumerated List form for the corresponding language code.
  • Labels for forms and form controls (tabs, title, menu, tool tips, function buttons) by language are stored in the FSWEBLABEL table.
  • Labels for form fields are stored in the FSFIELDLABEL table.
  • In the web client, you can use the Field Label form to configure grid labels in different languages.
