how to import new translation language covering all custom strings

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To import a new translation language covering all custom strings in NetSuite, you can follow these steps: 1. Export Existing Fields: First, you need to export the existing fields' names and help to a CSV file. This can be done using a utility or a script. 2. Translate Fields: Once you have the CSV file, you can use a Google Translate function in Google Sheets to automate translations. This will translate all your custom fields and descriptions into the desired language. 3. Review Translations: After the automated translation, it's recommended to have the translations reviewed by a professional translator to ensure accuracy and context. 4. Reupload Translations: Once the translations have been reviewed and approved, you can reupload the CSV file with the translations back into NetSuite. For the translation of custom fields, records, and menus, you can maintain a custom record. Anytime a new field is created, provide the translation values in that custom record. This should be treated as a master table for all translations and can be accessed by SuiteScript, SuiteSQL, etc. For Custom Lists, you can create functions so that your integration partner can query (REST WS) against the custom record to receive the translations in their system's language. Please note that this process can be time-consuming and complex, depending on the number of custom fields and descriptions you have. It's also important to note that the quality and accuracy of the translations will depend on the quality of the automated translation tool you use and the professional translator who reviews the translations. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
