Using payment discounts in your own language

 

---

 

MKG is used in various countries and languages, and even within a company users may have different preferred languages. To facilitate internationalization, it is now possible to add translations to data. This allows you as a user to read and search the content of tables in your own system language, according to translations provided by MKG and/or customized by yourself. And when documents need to be sent to customers, you can send the data in the customer's language.

For some time now, translations could already be added to payment terms, delivery terms, and shipping methods. We have now extended this to payment discounts.

 

Configuration

In the Detail of the table Payment Discounts, a 'Translations' tab has been added where translations can be viewed, added, and/or modified. This can be done by any user, provided you are authorized by your administrator.

When creating invoice lines, the payment discount is now displayed in the language set on the sales order or quote (default is the language of the debtor). If you do not enter translations, the fields will be shown everywhere in Dutch, just as has been the case until now.

 

Usage

1. Go to the table Payment Discounts.
2. Select a payment discount.
3. Go to Detail » 'Translations' tab. Here all languages configured in the Language Codes module are shown.
4. Open the 'Description' view via the Views
   button.
5. You can now fill in the description for the selected payment discount per language. You may also leave the fields empty.
6. Fill in translations for all desired payment discounts, languages, and descriptions.

 

Set the language of the preview In a sales order or sales quote, you can select a language on the 'General' tab (default is the language of the debtor) in which this order should be shown in the preview.

 

 

Please note! The system language is the language in which the user uses MKG. You can select this language at the bottom left of the screen.
