Locale - How to rename header columns in Rapid Pending, Pre-Registration Today and Tomorrow Tab

Locale customization

You can add your customized locale keys for both Client and Web interface here. The steps to do this are:

(1) Create a file named "override.locale" at location "[Installation Folder]\Config\custom\locale\".
    For a typical installation this translates to "C:\PPGlobal\Config\custom\locale\override.locale"

(2) Open this "override.locale" file and add the following in this file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DefaultLocale xmlFileType="Locale" xmlFileId="-91259461634194">
   <Map>
   </Map>
</DefaultLocale>

(3) Make sure not to change the above content of the file like the value of the xmlFileId should be "-91259461634194" only and it should not be edited.
    Also, please don't add any other file with similar contents and same extension of ".locale" in this locale directory.

(4) Now, lets say you want to add a custom value for localization key "USR_USER" as "User Name". For this, enter the following line:

<Entry key="USR_USER" value="User Name" description="Value for key USR_USER from Centers.locale file" />

between the opening and closing <Map> tags to get the file as:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DefaultLocale xmlFileType="Locale" xmlFileId="-91259461634194">
   <Map>
      <Entry key="USR_USER" value="User Name" description="Value for key USR_USER from Centers.locale file" />
   </Map>
</DefaultLocale>
