Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 is ...

.. not a "normal" release ... beware!, Waldo informed us on his blog almost 2 weeks ago.

This post is just to add some info on the things I encountered today. No big issues (so far), but some minor, mainly translation matters.

Comparing R2 NL with NAV 2009 SP1 NL showed me that:

• For what ever reason the ENU term No. Series has now been wrongly translated to NLD Nr.-reeksen after ages of right translation; i.e. Nr.-reeks
  
  This affects the following table objects:
   

  TAB17	TAB281	TAB5629	TAB7333
  TAB21	TAB308	TAB5635	TAB7340
  TAB23	TAB370	TAB5718	TAB7342
  TAB25	TAB382	TAB5740	TAB7700
  TAB27	TAB751	TAB5744	TAB11307
  TAB32	TAB753	TAB5746	TAB11400
  TAB77	TAB5071	TAB5772	TAB11411
  TAB83	TAB5076	TAB5913	TAB11000000
  TAB89	TAB5080	TAB5940	TAB99000754
  TAB156	TAB5092	TAB5943	TAB99000758
  TAB167	TAB5097	TAB5965	TAB99000763
  TAB169	TAB5200	TAB5968	TAB99000771
  TAB203	TAB5405	TAB5970	TAB99000779
  TAB207	TAB5600	TAB7311	TAB99000786
  TAB210	TAB5601	TAB7312	TAB99008504
  TAB246	TAB5621	TAB7318	TAB99008505
  TAB270	TAB5625	TAB7322
  TAB277	TAB5628	TAB7331

  
     .., and next to that MEN10 and MEN1010.
   
• Same applies with respect to the ENU noun View. Until R2 this rightly translated to the NLD noun Weergave. With R2 this has been wrongly  translated to the NLD verb Weergeven.
   

  FOR521	PAG11407	PAG11000000	PAG11000016
  FOR8710	PAG11412	PAG11000002	PAG11000017
  PAG521	PAG11413	PAG11000004
  PAG8710	PAG11415	PAG11000006
  PAG11406	PAG11418	PAG11000012

  
  BTW: This reminds of the first translation we got after the MS take over of Navision, when all of a sudden the ENU adjective Open was translated to the NLD verb Openen instead of the NLD adjective Open.
   
• In Report 5606 the ENU term Total is no longer translated to NLD Totaal, but seems to have been copied straight from the ENU caption: Total. Yes, we have Total fuel stations, but apart from that total is non NLD.
   
• For another obscure reason the following objects have an updated object Date, i.e. it has been set to 11-12-10 (dd-mm-yy), without any other changes to these objects:
   

  COD11402	FOR11000000	TAB11407	TAB2000000072
  COD11000004	FOR11000002	TAB11411	TAB2000000073
  COD11000007	FOR11000004	TAB11000005	TAB2000000074
  COD11000008	FOR11000006	TAB11000008	TAB2000000075
  COD11000009	FOR11000012	TAB11000009	TAB2000000076
  FOR11406	FOR11000016	TAB2000000065	TAB2000000078
  FOR11407	FOR11000017	TAB2000000066	TAB2000000079
  FOR11412	MEN10	TAB2000000067	TAB2000000080
  FOR11413	MEN1010	TAB2000000068	TAB2000000203
  FOR11415	REP11000003	TAB2000000069
  FOR11418	TAB11405	TAB2000000071

Next to these errors two I stumbled over two other issues:

• In Reports 11401 and 11402 the ENU term parcel(s) used to be translated  to NLD collo/colli.With R2 this has simplified to Colli.
• In Codeunits 5813, 5814, 5815, 5816 and 5818 a grammatical error was fixed: ENU undo was erroneously translated as NLD ongendaan and should have been ongedaan. This has been corrected.
  
  But ... I am not sure if I do understand the translation of the full text constant:
  
       ENU=Undo quantity posting...-> NLD=Aantal boeken ongedaan maken...'
  
  ... as NLD Aantal boeken seems to me wrong.

This altogether makes me wonder if other local version suffer from the same kind of issues.
