Multilingualism

In times of globalization it is vital for international companies to have multilingual user interfaces for their company software as well as having the possibility to maintain risk analysis in several languages. APIS IQ-Software offers a solution for both requirements.

Interface Language

(Available in all extension stages of IQ Software)

The APIS IQ-Software is now available in 9 interface languages, among them two far eastern languages.

The interface language of the APIS IQ-Software can be changed during runtime of the software ("on the fly", no new installation necessary) and without the need to exit the program.

Multilingual Data

(Not available in IQ FMEA cf. product comparison)

APIS IQ-Software lets you translate your data into an unlimited number of languages. Languages for data are not limited to the number of languages available for the interface but are free to choose. In all Editors a bilingual presentation of the contents is possible. There are no restrictions concerning the editing of the data.

Support of Asian Languages

Also the support of Asian languages is ensured.

Maintenance and translation can be done in any editor. However as a specialized tool within the APIS IQ-Software the editor "Terminology and Translation" is provided.

Translation Management Support

APIS IQ-Software supports the user in keeping the translations always up to date by finding objects with an out of date translation.

Support of External Translators

Also if the risk analysis has to be translated externally APIS IQ-FMEA offers a pragmatic solution. Data can be exported to a XLS file and then be translated in an excel table.

When external translation in Excel is completed the results can be simply brought back into the APIS IQ-Software.
