I think you are mixing 2 very different things up.

An .ALD file is a label file in AX, which replaces the label identifiers in the @ABC1234 format in the system with the current user's selected language texts.

The warning messages' header in your infolog talks about product translations, which has nothing to do with labels.

Please clarify what is your goal and what steps have you carried out to reach that goal.

If you just wanted to add product translations, that is not coming in the format of a label (ALD).

The error is related to product translations, not labels.

Go to:

[company]/Product information management/Common/Products/Products

Press the Translations button (1)

Add the translation for the en-ie language, and you should be good to go.

Thank you for the prompt reply,

I'm trying to change the lables of AX to a new language.

I changed some texts on the .ALD file and impotrted it with overwrite to an existing language (en-in).

Then i restart AOS and switch the language to "en-in" in order to apply the changes to the lables.

Dear Experts,

As I am trying to import labels in a new language (this will ammend "en-in") is there any help guide or material that may assist me? Otherwise please do describe the steps that I should follow. As I already said .ALD file is prepared.

Thanks,

Michalis

This is how you import another ALD to replace the label IDs in a specific language:

But again, that has nothing to do with the product translations in the warning message that you have in your original post.

Hi Michalis,

Steffen did already provide the correct answer. Because you changed the default language, AX will check if all products do have a translated name for this language. Otherwise the product names on the listpages and lookups will be empty.

So follow his procedure to add product translations for the products listed in the warning message. You can eventually also use Data Import Export Framework to import the new "translations" for all products in the en-IN language.
