Promoting Translated Strings

To promote translated strings for user defined objects from one environment to another (for example, from test to production), you must export the service definitions and translated strings from the source environment, and then import them into the target environment.

Exporting and importing service definitions is currently an experimental feature that is explained in detail in solution S141047. You export and import the XML file of translated strings from one environment to another using Application Administrator. The order of the import does not matter; you can import service definitions before importing translated strings or vice versa.

When you export and import the XML file of translated strings from one environment to another:

• Default SLS locale strings (en_US) are not changed in the target environment.
• Default strings and translations for non-default locales are overwritten in the target environment.
