There is no automated language translation in Business Central; all translations must be done manually.
Comments
This idea is strongly needed in today's global market. Currently, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central does not support automated language translation for custom-developed features. All translations must be handled manually. This includes:Adding captions if they are missing during programming.Replacing hardcoded messages with labels to support localization.Adding tool tip captions. Below format is what Microsoft suggests For example:var MyLabel: Label 'This is a translated message.';begin Message(MyLabel);end;but most developers add Message('This is a translated message'). These are not handled during translation and becomes tedious work. This manual process becomes especially time-consuming and error-prone when deploying customizations across multiple countries or regions even if Microsoft standard development is followed(ex. if there're 50,000 customized fields that needs translation). A built-in automation tool from Microsoft to manage translations covering Multi-language, captions, tooltips, dialog boxes, and other UI elements would significantly streamline localization efforts and reduce development overhead.Such a feature is not just a convenience but a necessity for global deployments. It would greatly enhance productivity and ensure consistency in multilingual environments.
