Multi-Language
A Comprehensive Solution for Multi-Language Translation Needs
à Change MAS 90 / 200 screen field names only once—globally!
à All translations are performed dynamically
à Compatible with Third-Party enhancements
Multi-Language is a Sage MAS 90 / MAS 200 Enhancement, developed exclusively by DSD Business Systems. While Custom Office allows changes to MAS 90 / MAS 200 screens one-field, one-panel-at-a-time, Multi-Language allows field names to be changed once—globally! Menus, Data entry screens, Crystal Reports, Standard Reports, Message Prompts, Progress Meters, and Pop-ups are all translated into a language better-suited to the culture of your company.
- The Multi-Language English Language Table Builder Utility scans the entire MAS 90 / 200 database searching for text embedded in Screens, Programs, Grids, ALE Lookups, Menus, Crystal and Standard Reports, Message Tables, Progress Meters and Pop-ups.
-- Once created, the English Language Table serves as the basis upon which
custom language translations will be made
-- Third-Party enhancements will be encompassed in the database search
- It’s necessary to run this utility only once after installation - Multi-Language User Maintenance allows entry of MAS User Code assignments by Language Code.
- Each MAS90 User Code can be assigned a unique Language Code linking it
to a Language Translation Table by user preference. - Multi-Language Language Maintenance makes managing Language Translation Tables easy with the use of MAS 90 / 200’s standard customizable grid entry format.
- Column A displays the English text, while Column B stores the maintainable
translation.
- Editing tools such as a Find/Replace utility exist for making single word or
bulk text translations across an entire Translation Table.
- Language Translation Tables can be copied from existing Tables or from pre-
defined Language Translation Templates available from DSD in various
f oreign languages. - Multi-Language Miscellaneous Entry exists for making additional entries into an existing Language Translation Table.
- There may be instances where the English Language Table Builder utility
fails to retrieve all English text within MAS 90 / 200. Single or multiple line
entries can be made and appended to your Translation Table.
- Both the English text and Translation columns are editable in a grid entry
format.
Multi-Language is an invaluable Enhancement, providing a comprehensive solution to change screen fields only once—globally— instead of painstakingly one-field, one-panel-at-a-time.
