Documentation

Definition

There can be several physical documents in various languages for every document.

The system firstly searches for a physical document in the logon language and displays this document if found.

If the system does not find a document in the logon language, it then looks for a document in the alternative language. The Alternative Language can be set according by the user in the Settings. If no alternative language was set in the user settings, the system uses english as the alternative language

If the system cannot find a document in the alternative langauge, it displays the newest physical document.
