Localization attributes

Guidewire provides several attributes on the localization element on column that affect the use of the element. The following list describes each attribute:

Attribute	Type	Description
`nullok`	`Boolean`	This attribute is required. Set it to the same value as the `nullok` attribute for the column to which you are adding the table. If you set this attribute to `false`, PolicyCenter flags missing entries that it finds during a database consistency check, but it can start up with these missing entries. If PolicyCenter is configured with multiple languages: PolicyCenter stores the values for the default application language in the main database table of the entity. PolicyCenter stores the values for additional languages in a separate localization table. During a consistency check, PolicyCenter flags entries in the main database table for the default language if corresponding entries for additional languages cannot be found in the localization table. Entries flagged as missing additional languages are warnings only. A missing language value does not prevent the server from starting. Note: If only one language is configured, PolicyCenter does not run the consistency check.
`tableName`	`String`	The name of the localization table. Use the following format for this name: `mainEntityNameAbbrevation_columnNameAbbreviation_l10n` IMPORTANT: The table name must be no longer than 16 characters. If the name exceeds this length, the application server will not start.
`extractable`	`Boolean`	Default value is `false`. If you set this attribute to `true`, PolicyCenter adds the localization table to the archive for the entity. See Archive entities and the Extractable delegate.
`overlapTable`	`Boolean`	Default value is `false`. Overlap tables are tables in which individual table rows can exist either in the domain graph or as part of reference data, but not both. The database table itself exists both in the domain graph and as reference data. If you set this attribute to `true`, PolicyCenter marks the localization table as an overlap table. See Archive entities and the OverlapTable delegate.
`unique`	`Boolean`	Default value is `false`. If you set this attribute to `true`, PolicyCenter enforces that for each language the values are unique and there are no duplicates. If the entity is of type `effdated` or `effdatedbranch`, do not set `unique` to `true`. See Data entities and the application database.
