Multiple Document Languages

With a multlanguage-enabled database you can automatically get the languages needed for multiple document language functionality.

Running Multiple Document Languages

If you have documents that you want to print in the language of the recipient rather than in your own working language, you can add a single line of code in the document to handle this. This functionality is already enabled for most reports in the standard Microsoft Dynamics NAV database. The document is printed in the language that is specified in the Language Code field in the Customer Card window.

In reports that need the multiple document languages functionality, you must insert the following C/AL code as the first line in the OnAfterGet Record() trigger:

CurrReport.LANGUAGE := Language.GetLanguageID("Language Code")

For each of these reports, you must create a new variable, Language, with the data type Record pointing to the Language table (table 8). When you have compiled the object, it will no longer print in the user’s working application language if another language has been specified in the Customer Card window.
