Set Up Language Options

Use the Language setting to determine the languages that are available to the users upon logging in.

Some networks cache credentials, so that after one successful request has been made, changing these fields to invalid values may still allow calls to the Internet to succeed for some time.

To set up language options:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Settings > General > Options.
  2. Use the Enable Languages options to specify the languages that are available for selection in the Vantagepoint application.
    • Language: This column displays the names of the languages that are currently enabled. To enable more languages, use the + Add Language option to open the Language lookup and select from the languages that are available for your role. The languages that you enable are then available for selection in the Language option on the Vantagepoint login screen, as well as the Language options on various forms throughout the application.
    • Primary: If more than one language is in use, select the language that is used as the default language for a new employee record. This is the language that displays for the employee upon initial login, as well as the default language for email and workflow notifications.
    If only one language is specified, that language is used at login time and the Language option does not display on the Login screen.

    If no primary language is specified, the language most recently used at login displays. If that language is not available, the language that is specified for the browser settings is used. If that language is not detectable, Vantagepoint defaults to the first available allowed language in the list.

  3. Click Save.
