Field names displayed in selected language

Currently a new functionality has been introduced into AMODIT Platform that enables a display of field names in accordance to selected language. It’s another step in making our Platform more accessible for users working in multilingual environment.

How does it work?

To define a field names in a specific language, enter them in the form of:
language symbol: the field name in selected language
Contractor
pl: Kontrahent
fr: Entrepreneur
de: Auftragnehmer

In case of selecting Polish language Amodit Platform user will see the form in the way presented below:

At the same time another French speaking user  will see the respective screen:

New in version 2.1

1. Before saving changes to rule AMODIT is checking if all used fields exists. In version 2.2. additionally the same checking will be done while changing field name. If changed field is used in rules AMODIT will propose automatic update of rules.
2. Ability to change label of field without changing its name, It reduces numer of situations when field name have to be changed.
3. Multilingual field labels on form. For each language you can define separate label for a field.
4. Improved table view of fields, stages and rules. If description or rules takes many lines then just beginning of it is shown.
5. New function: GetAttachmentContent – takes text content from full text search index. It can be used to get some information from scanned and OCRed document:
   
   GetAttachmentContent ([\"attachment name|attachment template name\"])
   If you pass no parameters it will get content of all attachments from current case. As a parameter you can pass a file name or a name of a template.
   Note – you need to wait till full text search indexes new document. Otherwise it will return empty text.
   Example in finding date on invoice:
   
   inv=GetAttachmentContent("invoice");
   [date]=Trim(RegExp(inv,"(\d\d?/\d\d?/\d\d\d\d)","all",";"));

Be careful when using dates in rules

When you write rules in AMODIT you need to be careful when using dates. AMODIT supports multiple languages and it influences how dates are shown and interpreted. In US English date format is mm/dd/yyyy but for example in Polish it is yyyy-mm-dd. Therefore it is risky to write:
[DateTo]>="5/2/2014"

It is better to write:
[DateTo]>=DateTime(2014,5,2)

This way you can avoid problems when user switches to another language.
