Translation Values (Product Formats)

Purpose

To be able to translate values for a variety of purposes.

 

Note:

The same menu may also be selected from Accounting > Structure > Translation Values or from Infrastructure > System Data > Translation Values

 

This menu selection (Scheme > Formats > Translation Values), only applies for the Translation Purpose of BENEFIT STATEMENT.  When the system processes a Benefit Statement Translation Value, it will first check if anything is defined here at a scheme level.  If nothing is defined, the system will use what is defined at an Accounting or an Infrastructure level.

 

From the System Data menu on the top, select Translation Values from the sub-menu on the left.

 

 

The JU2AU Translation Header List screen will be displayed.

 

 

Select the required value from the TRANSLATION PURPOSE drop-down box. 

 

The JU2AU Translation Header List screen will display headers for all the values currently available for translation.

 

 

Add new translation header

To add a new translation header, select Add New Translation Header from the sub-menu. 

 

 

The JU2AU New Translation Header List screen will be displayed.

 

Note:

The version of the screen displayed depends on the Translation Purpose selected.  For example:
