Built-in internationalization functionality allows you to use multiple languages both at the development stage and in the user interface. Besides that, the platform supports regional standards for displaying dates, numbers, and so on. The following internationalization features are available:

Unicode
The 1C:Enterprise system provides multi-language support because all configuration and database texts are stored in Unicode format. This permits the use of characters from one or more languages in any text data simultaneously.
Regional Standards
Regional numerical, date, and alphabetic sorting standards are supported for all major European languages. Infobase administrators can use standard OS settings or custom regional configurations.
Multilingual Interface
The platform can generate a command interface in multiple languages, allowing users to interact with the system in their native language environment.
Script Support
1C:Enterprise script includes functions like NStr(), PeriodPresentation(), NumberInWords(), and Format() to handle multilingual data and reports dynamically across the platform.
Solution Localization
Developers can create custom multilingual forms using Language configuration objects and manage translations efficiently:
  • Specify presentation for each text element.
  • Assign native languages to specific users.
  • Use the specialized "Interface text editor".
Cryptography
All questions and dialogs generated by the cryptography component automatically match the selected platform interface language for consistent user experience.
Accompanying Files
Platform update descriptions and critical technical documentation are delivered in both English and Russian to support global development teams.
Setup Program
The setup program automatically detects and switches to the language that matches the operating system's regional settings (e.g., Latvian, German, or English).
