Dynamic Localization

Audience: Administrators Edition: Enterprise

Overview

Dynamic Localization enables end-users to view chart data in their preferred language. The following article provides step-by-step instructions for configuring Dynamic Localization in OrgChart.

Data Prep

Your data must contain a version of the field(s) you would like translated each language.

For example, if you would like English speaking end-users to view English titles, and French speaking end-users to view French titles, you need to have two different title fields (i.e. Title_ENG and Title_FR).

Mapping Localized Fields

Once the translated fields are in the data, an administrator can configure Dynamic Localization in the Chart Settings: Mapping panel. The following section provides step-by-step instructions for mapping the localized fields.

  1. Log in to OrgChart.

  2. Click on the Mode Switcher icon in the Top Toolbar, and then select the Setup option. The Setup panel is displayed.
