Export workflow step names as string resources for translation
About this task
If you have more than a few workflow step names to translate, you can export them, translate them in the exported file, and then import them.
Procedure
-
Export the PolicyCenter string
resources for a particular locale by using the following command
in the installation directory:
gwb exportLocalizations -Dexport.file=targetFile -Dexport.language=languageCodeIn the command, you must provide a target file name and specify the language code to use to identify the files from which to export the string resources.
-
In the exported file, find the workflow by display key name.
For example, in PolicyCenter, find
Workflow.ProcessMVRsWFand keep searching until you see an entry that ends in.Step. An example isWorkflow.ProcessMVRsWF.1.BeforeOrder.Step.The display key names for workflow items might contain a box character between the workflow name and the version number. A box character represents a character that your system is not configured to display, in this case the character one dot leader, UTF-16 hexadecimal code 0x2024. The previous example represents that character as a period.

command syntax:
