Internationalization of Values
Using internationalized value lists enables to load their values in the different available languages, so that users with different language preferences configured can see list values in their own language.
If the value list has the Internationalize property active, the language configured for the user is displayed in the header of the list. For each language selected from the icon a new column is added.
The user can load the corresponding translation for each value.
Removing the check mark of a language deletes the column corresponding to that language.
For each available language, a new column is added to the Excel file, which is used to import or export the list values.
Once the internationalization has been modeled, it is suggested to load values to the list in all the selected languages.
