Translation Customization
Produmex Manufacturing is a legacy product and Boyum IT Solutions no longer sells new installations for it.
The translation customization feature can be used for creating custom translations. It is also possible to create custom translation for a given SBO user only.
Open the Translation customization via the following path: Tools > Produmex Manufacturing > Developer Tools > Language BxDictionary > Translation Customization
1. Change the value on the Translation Customization form
1.1. Find the value
Add the text you would like to customize as the ‘Value’. Only the exact search text will be matched. To search based on partial text, use asterisk (*) as a wildcard.
Space characters will be considered. The filter is not case sensitive on MSSQL.
Example:
