How to correct translation 

Minor correction to translation can be done by direct editing of the resource bundle files. 

Please note following:

• translations stored as UTF-8 strings and make sure you use editor capable to edit and save content in UTF-8 format
• translation bundle is an XML file and sensitive to correct XML structure. So care should be taken to leave XML in valid format.

For example:

<value xml:lang="fr">Évaluer</value>   - Valid entry

Removing or making unbalanced ", < or > chars, will result in incorrect entry and will cause problem when program restarts

<value xml:lang="fr>Évaluer</value>   - invalid

<value xml:lang="fr">Évaluer/value>  - invalid

<value xml:lang="fr">Évaluer<</value>  - invalid

Preferred ways of doing translation corrections are:

1. Send  corrections to  support@versadial.com or to sales@versadial.com as a list corrected XML entries:
   
        <property key="qcAdminEvaluate">
             <value xml:lang="es">Evaluar</value>
        </property>
   
        <property key="qcAdminReview">
             <value xml:lang="es">Evaluar</value>  
        </property>
   
   
2. Or as list of value pair entries:
   
        Please correct Spanish translations.
             qcAdminEvaluate= Evaluar
             qcAdminReview=Evaluar
             .. etc
   
   
3. Request access to Adutante Portal Translator Module: https://www.adutante.com/portal/
