Hi, Can we print invoice pdf using advanced template based on subsidiary country language. Suppose for poland, we need to print pdf in poland language?

Yes, you need to add Polish as a language to your account. Then update the language on the customer to Polish (under Preferences)

thank you Ryan for your reply. I need to print in poland for the customers that has poland country not for all customers

Adding Polish to your account won't set the language for all customers to Polish, only the customers that you set the language to Polish for.

@ryanhowson How to add polish language in account

Setup > Company > General Preferences. Scroll down to Languages subtab and add Polish as an option

there is no languages tab

Oh, you'll need to enable multi-languages then

Hi Ryan ...I have made this setup for Hebrew language. also set the Hebrew language on customer preferences. Still Invoice is printing in english

Are you pressing "Print in Customer's Locale"?

yes

Have you customized the template? If you are using the native field labels, they should translate automatically. If you have hard-coded the labels, then they will not be translated. Are you able to share part or all of the template?

Ya I customized the template.. and some of the template part is showing in Hebrew while other is not\

Everywhere where you have typed in explicit values, those will not be translated. You have provided exact literals, so Netsuite can't/won't translate them: Invoice No. Date Customer ID Contract No.

Electronic Funds Transfer can be made to:

ok Thanks Scott but what about the company information and other text in the template

two things to be aware of with NetSuite languages: NetSuite will only provide translations for standard fields on the standard record types by default. If you add custom fields, custom record types, or custom text to your templates, then you have to provide the translations yourself. With that, the only way to get the standard fields to print in a different language is to use the standard labels in the template, rather than custom label text. For example:

${record@title}

instead of

Invoice No.

${record.trandate@label}

instead of

Date

and so on. Some of the labels may not provide the text you want, but that is the tradeoff you have to make to get automatic translations. You can override the labels on the transaction form itself, but that will only affect your language, and not the translation in Hebrew or other languages

@scottvonduhn thanks for the information..So, Fields value that are standard like (Billto, shipto, Company address) should be printed in Hebrew but they are not...if there any limitation for that

Well, I just tested this with some different languages, and indeed, the labels are not showing up when Hebrew is selected. It could be that either NetSuite has not provided out of the box translation for certain languages (Hebrew being one of them) or that an additional localization bundle must be installed to get it. I am not sure. A number of languages do have translations provided, so I'm not sure why this one doesn't work.

I Scott, I contacted netsuite support regarding showing custom text and hardcoded value in Hebrew in pdf. So finally I found a solution for that

that's great!
