The selected language of your customers and suppliers determines which translation is used on line items in quotes, orders, supplier confirmations, and invoices.

Follow the steps below to update your customers' and suppliers' languages.

Customers:

1. Click on the 'Sales' tab at the top
2. Click on 'Customers' in the menu
3. Click on the customer for whom you wish to change the language
4. Select the customer's language in the field shown below
5. 

Suppliers:

1. Click on the 'Purchasing' tab at the top

Now Rackbeat will automatically use the translations, for example, in purchase orders and orders/invoices.

You can also use the import function if you have multiple translations that need to be updated on the products at once.
