Translations Tool

The Translations tool in ES100 allows you to modify the terminology used for your distributor labels on the Back Office Extranet. This allows for consistency of language used between your website, documents and your distributors’ back offices.

ES100 > Company Tab > Multi-language > Translations

  • Reference = dynamic data, text that is pulled from the database and is table driven

Page/Location:

  • The drop-down menu provides the user the various page locations to translate

Translation Type:

  • Short description (default)
  • Long= more descriptive fields
