Language Translations - Avaya Communication Manager Administrator's Manual

Screen Reference

Language Translations

Pre-translated messages are available in English, French, Italian, and Spanish to display on
your system telephones. Translations for many Communication Manager messages can be
assigned using the Language Translations screens. As of July 1, 2005, however, new
messages are no longer added to the Language Translations screens, so these screens might
not show all available Communication Manager messages.
As a preferred method for entering translations for user-defined phone messages, Avaya
recommends using the Avaya Message Editing Tool (AMET). This tool is available for download
from http://www.avaya.com.
All button names can be assigned a user-defined name. For more information, see
Feature Buttons Table
