Entering Dashboard Tile Translations
Dashboard Tiles is available in all languages that NetSuite supports. The only exception to the multi-language support are the values for the Name, Prefix, Display Value, and Suffix fields. If you're an Administrator or a user with edit permissions to dashboard tile records, you need to enter translations for the values in these fields in the languages supported by NetSuite. Translations for these fields can be entered for all tile types.
You need to create the tile first before you can enter translations for it.
To enter dashboard tile translations:
-
Ensure you have enabled the entry of translation strings for other languages.
For more information, see Enabling the Entry of Translation Strings for a Specific Language.
Note:You can only enter tile translations for languages where you enabled the entry of translations strings. For example, if you enabled the entry of translations strings for French and German, you can only enter tile translations in French and German and not in other languages.
-
Ensure the Multi-Language feature is enabled.
To verify, go to Setup > Company > Setup Tasks > Enable Features and ensure the Multi-Language box is checked.
-
Go to Setup > Dashboard Tiles > Manage Dashboard Tiles.
-
On the Dashboard Tile List page, click Edit on the tile you want to add translations to.
-
On the Dashboard Tile page, click the Translations subtab.
The Translations subtab becomes available only after you create the tile.
-
Enter translations for the following fields:
-
Name – Enter a name for the tile in your chosen language.
-
Prefix – Enter text or characters to append at the beginning of the tile in your chosen language.
-
Display Value – Enter a display value for the tile in your chosen language.
-
Suffix – Enter text or characters to append at the end of the tile in your chosen language.
Repeat this step for any other languages you want to add translation entries for.
Note:Ensure Prefix or Suffix field on the Data subtab is not left blank. When left blank, translation entries for the Prefix or Suffix fields will not be saved.

-
Click Save.
You need to change your language preference to see the translations you entered for the tile. For more information about setting the language preference, see Choosing a Language for Your NetSuite User Interface.
