  • 1.  How to inactivate RDM localization?

    Posted 13 days ago

    We have implemented a RDM lookup type containing units. The canonical value contains the abbreviation like "g/ha" and in the localization we have defined the long text in different languages like "Gram per Hectare (en)". 

    Is it possible to display in MDM the canonical value instead of the localization value of the user-specific language defined in the browser?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Klaudia -  I don't think it is possible, but I am tagging our RDM product manager @Abhilasha Sabharwal to double confirm

    Any news?
    Otherwise we have to delete all our localization data and that would be a pity.

    Hi Klaudia,

    Thank you for your patience, and apologies for the delay.
    You've read the behavior correctly, and I want to set expectations clearly: this is how Reltio works today by design. When an RDM lookup value is shown in the UI, we display the localization that matches the user's browser locale, and fall back to the canonical value only when no matching localization exists. There's currently no setting that forces the canonical value to display when a localization is present - for a given locale, the localized value always takes precedence.

    To make sure I point you in the right direction, it would help me to understand your use case a little better:
    1. Could you share a bit more on the goal behind defining the localizations, given that you'd like the canonical abbreviation (g/ha) to be what users see?
    2. Where exactly do you need the abbreviation shown (e.g., Hub UI profile, search, exports), and for which users or locales?


    Best regards,

    Thanks Abhilasha for your detailed answer.

    Here my answers:

    1. Units are typically abbreviated. We loaded the long texts in different languages to the RDM localization to have a definition for unknown or special units.
    2. The abbreviation should be shown in MDM where the user selects a unit. In science it is better to show a unit as abbreviation.

    OK. Then we will delete our localization data and put only the English localization value to a custom attribute in the RDM lookup type.
