Manage Translations

NetSuite has features that support translating SuiteScript, SuiteFlow, SuiteBundler and other customizations. In addition, you can also take advantage of the features that facilitate managing those translations.

The Manage Translations feature enables you to work with Translation Collections, which are in fact storage repositories for translation strings. A translation collection is a repository where you can store the strings you use in your NetSuite customizations. Translation strings are containers where you store source language strings, which can be a single word or multiple sentences. If the source language version of the string requires a translation, you will also store the translated values in these containers. When you create a string, you will assign a key value to it that will be the string's unique identifier. A translation collection is a set of translation string containers, and the string's source language will match the collection's default language. For more information about the Manage Translations Terminology, see Manage Translations Glossary.

Translation collections and strings can be:

• created,

• edited,
