Localize Metrics Definition

In the Metrics Definition tab of Compensation Setup > Compensation Metrics, you can localize the name and description of metrics definition records so that users who speak different languages can view the records in their preferred language.

To localize the name and description for a metrics definition record:

  1. Go to Compensation Setup > Compensation Metrics and click the Metrics Definition tab.
  2. Select the metrics definition record that you want to localize.
  3. Click Localize in the tab's toolstrip. Dayforce opens the Localize Metrics Definition dialog box.
  4. Click Add.
  5. Click the field in the Language column, and then select a language in the drop-down list.
  6. Click the field in the Name column, and then enter the localized name for the record.
  7. (Optional) Click the field in the Description column, and then enter the localized description.
  8. Click Save.

You can create a copy of an existing localized record by selecting it and then clicking Copy in the dialog box. You can then update the fields as needed instead of creating a new localized record. You can also delete localized records that are no longer needed by selecting them and then clicking Delete.
