You can update the strings that have been added or changed since the
Language Pack was created. This enables you to easily manage translations over
time as your content changes or as you upgrade
CSM.
Examples:
- If you add new Fields to a Business Object included in a Language
Pack with a content scope, use the refresh feature to add strings for that
field.
- If you upgrade to a new version of
CSM,
use the refresh feature to update platform strings that were added or modified.
To update strings in a Language Pack:
- Open the
Language Pack Editor.
- Select the Update Language Pack icon (
).
The
Update Language Pack dialog opens.
- Select one of the following options:
- Add and Update Existing Items
Select this option to update your Language Pack with new strings
for the Language Pack scope and with strings that have been updated in your
target language since the Language Pack was created.
- Include Updating Items with a Translated
Status
Select this option to overwrite strings that have a status
of "translated" with the strings stored in the definition.
- Include Updating Items with a Validated or
Validated Preferred Status
Select this option to overwrite strings that have a status
of "validated" or "validated-preferred" with the string stored in the
definition.
Note: Translated strings are never replaced by empty strings.
- Only Add New Items
Select this option to only update your Language Pack with new
strings for the Language Pack scope.
A pop-up window opens and shows the results of the update.
