Create Locale Settings

You can create language locales that specify language translations of system transaction types and define a currency format for emails you send to your customers. A default locale of System_US_English_locale already exists.

Once you create a locale, you can:

1. associate it your customer accounts, and
2. associate it with translations of product catalog elements. For elements that are defined in open text fields, a translation link is provided next to the field. The translation link opens a menu to select a locale and define a translation for the field. See Multi-language Translation of Product Elements for more information.

You can edit any user-created locales from the Locale Settings page. If the locale is already used by an email template, the system displays a lock icon indicating it cannot be deleted. Likewise, if it is a system locale, a system icon displays indicating it cannot be deleted nor edited.

2. Enter a locale name into the Locale Name field (required).
3. Enter a description into the Description field.
4. Select a Currency format. When not specified, Aria uses your client-level currency format settings (Configuration > Client Settings > Miscellaneous Settings) or the system-wide default (0,000,000,000.00).

   1. When not specified, Aria uses your client-level currency format settings (Configuration > Client Settings > Miscellaneous Settings > Default Currency Format Mask) or the system-wide default (0,000,000,000.00).
   2. Aria will display transaction amounts to the precision you specified when adding the currency you are associating with the locale you are configuring.
