Making Translated Data Available to Users

After you have performed the necessary steps to configure metadata object translation and/or data translation in the system, you can specify which language(s) should be displayed for various users in the interface and in reports (both report objects and report results). You can specify language preferences at the project level and at the all-projects level. By selecting various levels of language preferences, you specify which language is preferred as a fallback if a first choice language is not available.

These language preferences are for metadata languages only. All data internationalization languages fall back to the project's default language if a DI preference is not enabled or translation of a specific report cell is not available.

The following sections show you how to select language preferences based on various priority levels within the system, starting with a section that explains the priority levels:

• Selecting Preferred Languages for Interfaces, Reports, and Objects
• Selecting the Interface Language Preference
• Configuring Metadata Object and Report Data Language Preferences
• Selecting the Object Default Language Preference
