Changing the Manager Language

Last Updated : Sep 16, 2022 |

About this task

The Manager application can run in multiple languages. By default it tries to use the best match to the PC's regional location settings, otherwise it uses UK English.

The process below can be used to run Manager in one of its supported languages. Some components in the application such as the error pane, tooltips, and pop-up messages continue to use the System Locale language.

Note:

The IPOAdminLite does not support other languages. Only English language Manager.chm help file is present in IPOAdminLite.exe installation.

Procedure

  1. Create a Windows shortcut to the Manager application .exe file. By default this file is located in the following folder:

    File Path

    Pre-R11.1 FP2 SP3

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office\Manager

    Full Admin Suite

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office Admin Suite\Manager

    Admin Lite

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office Lite\Manager

  2. Right-click on the shortcut and select Properties.
  3. The Target field can be used to specify the locale setting that Manager should use.

    For example, for Italian the Target should have -locale:it-IT added to the end. For example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office\Manager\Manager.exe" -locale:it-IT.
