Sudden change of language in "Contacts" Entity

Posted on by 50

Hello everybody,

about a month ago for some reason our displayed language of the entity "contact" changed. Our system runs in german language and every Entity is typically displayed in german language. It used to be "Kontakte" and for some reason it has just changed to "Contact" within the Entity browser. In the main dynamics portal, where you typically choose where to go to, there it's displayed with the plural "Contacts". It seems like only this entity is changed. My only clue right now is that maybe the ClickDimensions Add-On may have changed somthing. However, this plugin is much longer active since the change appeared.

Any ideas on how to change it back ? (by the way: in our sandbox system the name is still correctly displayed in german. my first idea was that maybe an update from microsoft may have caused this)

I'd be happy about a solution!

Greetings

Andreas

    oh, yes, that was easy indeed. Even though I am familiar with this setting....for some reason I dind't think it would be working with this problem... THANKS!

    This could be caused by a ClickDimensions update...

    But the problem should be pretty easy to spot if you enter the customizations area of Dynamics 365 CE... It should show you pretty explicitly what the Display name and Plural name is.

    Also this could be caused by translations if you are running in a multi language environment. 

    In that case... Use XRM Toolbox to check what the translations for German is...
