Language - English UK Inconsistent

1

Hello,

I have English - UK set as the language in my v15 ERPNext local install but there are quite a few cases where American English spellings are still used, “Cost Center” instead of Cost Centre“”.

Is there a central language file I can check and update to the correct spellings? Or is there something else I’m missing?

Quite happy to share the corrected version, if it needs correcting.

Thanks,
Paul

You can create a translation on your instance like this:

And that should take care of it:

Or you can add it here as a permanent fix: https://github.com/frappe/erpnext/blob/develop/erpnext/translations/en_gb.csv

Thank you but the first method doesn’t seem to be universal, as in your screen shot the main title has updated but the column titles have not.

Thanks for the translations link, sadly the en-gb one is a bit blank. Weirdly the en-us version has a lot of the translations from en-gb to en-us.

Is there another source of all labels etc in ERPNext, so I can more easily find and correct the en-gb.csv file or is it more a case of adding them where I find them?

CSV based translations are being phased out and transitioned to a new gettext system, so I will need to use the Translation DocType for now.
