Internationalization Options

Internationalization Options

Kuali Build has support for English, Spanish and French in the non-form building, end-user facing parts of the platform including:

  • Home and Space screens

  • Document List

  • Action List

  • My Documents

  • Notifications that send from the system

  • Runtime read and edit form, including workflow history and export to PDF

  • Groups

This also includes support for multiple number formats, date formats, time formats, and multiple currencies.

How Does it Work?

  • The vast majority of end-users will not notice a difference or need to change the language setting as they are US English speaking.

  • Customers who have their browser language set to Spanish or French will automatically start seeing UX in Spanish or French.

  • Customers who have their browser locale set to something different than English (United States) will start seeing numbers, dates and times displayed in the formats of their selected locale.

  • A new menu option will appear on the Home Screen in User Settings which will allow end-users to manually select a different language:

  • The Currency gadget now has the Change Currency setting to support multiple currencies: US dollars, Canadian dollars, Chilean peso, Euros and the British Pound.  As well as an option to limit the number of decimals allowed in the entry.

What is not supported with internationalization:

  • Multi-lingual forms - Ability to have multiple languages reflected in a form.  Customers who need a product or form to support multiple languages will have to enter the multiple languages in each label or description on the form manually. For example: Name/Nombre for the label on a name field.

  • Multi-lingual content - Ability to have multi-lingual content captured in a form. For example, Catalog content can be entered in English and French and then automatically displayed correctly. There is currently no workaround for this.

  • Non-end-user facing screens - The following screens are not currently supported for internationalization and will be English-only:

    • Admin screens

    • Form builder

    • Workflow builder
