Localization feature allows you to run your processes in other languages. In emakin every started workflow instance has an culture identifier that specifies the language of workflow instance. It sets from preference of initiator user when a instance started and cannot be changed later.
Instance culture specifies the language of displayed labels in forms but it does not change cultural information like number formats or date formats. This kind of formatting respects to active user preferences.
In emakin designed process language is not important, you can use any language to design. After design is completed or an change is applied you can open the localization editor from process designer.
After a localization editor is opened you can add any other languages with "Add New" button and select language to localize process.
After a language is added, you can click "Details" button to edit localization texts. Emakin will scan your processes and list of texts to localize. Non localized texts will be marked as red if they're mandatory, if not original string will be used.
After localization is completed, depending on active user language preference process will be displayed and run in localized language.
Accessing from Scripting Environment
In some cases you may need access to localization texts in scripting environment. For example updating task instruction dynamically with localized equivalent.
Please see $Localization section for more details.
