POS Localization
Localization is the process of adapting software to meet country-specific laws or
regulations. Microsoft localizes Microsoft Dynamics AX to include features and
functionality designed to address specific tax, accounting or financial reporting
requirements for various countries.
Languages
Translation is the process of adapting software or documentation to meet
language requirements for a particular country. For any given language, Microsoft
may translate some, all or none of the user interface (UI) and documentation for
Microsoft Dynamics AX.
To set up POS in specific language, go the respective Retail Channel and change
the retail channel language. We can change the language in AX Retail by
navigating to Retail->Common->Retail channels->Retail stores->Language
7-2
When a string is found, it gets cached for the remainder of the POS instance
lifetime. As a developer, this means that you cannot manipulate the strings at
runtime any changes that are made to the table do not get reflected until the
next time the app is started.
