Dear experts,

I am looking for way to print documents like sales orders in Polish. Currently I am using the Contoso database. The system language is set up to Polish, however sales orders and other documents are generated in English. Do I have to create my own template or are there settings in the system?

Did you deployed the reports in other languages ? https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh496446.aspx

By default it will use the current session language.

It uses the language of the invoice, which itself comes from customer's language. It makes better sense than current user's language.

Hi bartmack,

I'm not sure if Polish is one of the languages supported by the Sales order documents, but I believe the setting 'Language' on the 'General' tab of the customer setup form controls which language the sales documents will be printed in.

From the help on TechNet: 'Select the language that is used for all external documents that are sent to the customer, such as invoices and account statements.'

Thanks for your advices. Changing the customers language, changed as well the language of the invoice.

Maybe this will help:

Reports generated from the AX client have formatting and language controlled through the AX user’s setup in the Options section. Exceptions are Sales Orders and other output management reports which are controlled by the language of the customer/vendor (if set).
