Enter alternate languages in Setup

The content of this page is specific to the Delphi Core product type. If you are using the Delphi product type, click here to access the Delphi-specific online help.

When your property uses the alternate languages feature, administrators need to complete the alternate language fields for each language on your Setup page layouts. The translations display to users when they work with bookings and events, and when they create BEOs, banquet checks, and advanced booking merge documents.

To see the different alternate language fields on a page layout, you need to have the corresponding permission set.

Here are the page layouts where you can find alternate language fields. Your corporate administrator has added the appropriate fields to each page layout, depending on your property's business processes. You might not see them all.
