Susan, Custom apps or OTB? The ITSM suite uses locale to determine the view to be displayed in the appropriate language. Not sure about menus.

No problem. Now that our business is growing there we need to accommodate non-English speaking staff. Also basic things like installations and invoicing require exact Chinese spelling and some of that is getting lost in the Chinese to English to Chinese translations causing issues. I know that the 'Simplified Chinese' language set is supported but I interpret that to mean in field labels. Does anyone have experience with adding a second language to an existing Remedy application? This would include menus and selection field values. Did you have to run two sets of menu and somehow activate the one you want dependent on say your locale? What did you do for selection field values. That leads to database issues and how that is all stored too. The idea is a flavor of follow the sun for support. If you're in Europe or US you see English, if you're in China you see Chinese. How does that happen? I figure the locale takes care of the labels although I'm not really sure how that happens but what about field contents? Any experiences you've had would be helpful to know. I appreciate your feedback.
