PART 3: Working with PeopleSoft Applications in Multiple Languages.

This part discusses tasks to perform if you are using the non-English translations delivered by the PeopleSoft system and processing application data in multiple languages.
PART 4: Translating PeopleSoft Applications.

This part discusses tasks to perform if you need to modify delivered PeopleSoft terminology, translate objects into languages not supplied by the PeopleSoft system, translate products not translated by the PeopleSoft system, or translate your customizations.
