Languages
In the language settings under the main settings, you can see which languages are in use. You can use the language settings to specify the languages in which users should be able to use the solution. The languages that are activated there are available to every user and every employee in the personal settings as possible user languages (except for partially supported languages).
Configure languages
Click on 
in the “Configure languages” section to configure the language settings. You can then view all languages available for selection, and:
- Change the language selection
- Change language for existing individuals
- Define the default language for umantis
Change the language selection
- Fully supported languages
- Here you will see a list of the core languages that are currently available/supported in Umantis
- Here you will see a list of partially supported or “lite” languages.
For more information, please see the section on “Lite” languages
- Other languages
- Here you will see a list of other languages
Umantis default language
The default language for a solution serves as a fallback language, and is used when a page is not explicitly called up in a specific language through the use of parameters or of the user language.
Select language
You can easily change your user language and time zone by clicking on the 
icon at the top right in the system navigation bar for your Umantis solution. The language that was defined as the default language for this Umantis solution is always displayed without a translation when selecting the language here. For all other languages that are available as user languages, each language’s name for itself is also shown — and the same logic applies to time zones, which you can also change here. This ensures that you will always understand at least one of the two language names displayed.
As always, you can also change the user language through your own user profile.
You can use configuration mode to show or hide the icon, and to indicate whether or not time zone information should be displayed.
“Lite” languages
Languages that are only partially supported are referred to as “lite” languages. They are only available for certain sections of the solution, and can only be selected by the applicant as a user language.
Lite languages are currently available in the following sections of Umantis Applicant Management:
- Job board
- Applicant access
- Application forms
- Publication contents
- Selection criteria / Questions about the job
- Job posting layouts
- Design settings
Please note that a “lite” (partially supported) language should not be imported as a user language.
Integration tips
- You must choose a single variant of the German language. The available versions are “Deutsch (CH)” for Switzerland or “Deutsch (DE)” for Germany. The two variants of German cannot both be activated at the same time, since everywhere that users can switch between the languages, the specific variant is not shown (for improved legibility), and only the general term “German” is displayed.
- When integrating pages or sending links to pages in the solution, the desired language can be included as a parameter with a link. The parameter is “?lang=”. The value for the language parameter is one of the language codes from the list below:
List of languages
Notes:
- The table contains a list of the languages supported for each application.
- This list includes both the standard languages and those that must be purchased separately.
- The contents of the table are in alphabetical order (“Language” column).
- An “X” means that the language is available for the given application.
- If a language is available for “Applicant Management”, then it is automatically available for the “Applicant Management Lite” version as well.
- If a language that you want to use is not available, please consult with your contact at Umantis.
