Browse product data in the language and currency that suit you or your buyer. A single language selector switches both product data and the Digital Showroom interface, and the currency selector controls how prices are displayed.
Change the language
- Click the language selector in the top-right area of the navigation bar. It shows the flag and code of the current language (for example, EN-US).
- Type in the Search language field to filter the list, if needed.
- Click the language you want to use.
Product names, descriptions and Attribute values update immediately, in the gallery and on product details pages. The interface (menus, buttons, labels and messages) switches to the same language when a translation is available.
The same selector is used everywhere: in your Portfolios, on the Private showrooms and Exports pages, and in the Private Showrooms your guests open.
On smaller screens, tap your avatar at the top right to find the Language and Currency selectors.
Which languages are listed
- In a Portfolio, the list shows the languages your administrator enabled for that Portfolio. Outside a Portfolio (for example, on the Exports page), it shows all the languages available in your catalog.
- If your Akeneo PIM administrator gave a Locale a custom label, Digital Showroom displays that label, in your current interface language when the PIM defines one. Otherwise, it displays the standard language name, for example "German (Austria)".
If the language you are using is not available in the Portfolio you open, a Select a language dialog asks you to choose one of the Portfolio's languages. If you do not see the language you need, contact your administrator.
When the interface is not translated
The Digital Showroom interface is available in the following languages:
- Dutch (Netherlands)
- English (United Kingdom)
- English (United States)
- French (Belgium)
- French (France)
- German (Germany)
- Italian (Italy)
- Polish (Poland)
- Portuguese (Portugal)
- Spanish (Spain)
- Swedish (Sweden)
If you select a language that is not in this list, Digital Showroom uses another variant of the same language for the interface, when one exists. For example, if you select German (Austria), product data is in German (Austria) and the interface in German (Germany).
When no variant exists, the language shows UI translation not available in the list. Product data is displayed in that language, and the interface in English (United States).
The interface always follows the language you select: you cannot set one language for the interface and another for product data.
Need the interface in another language? Ask your administrator to request it by opening a support ticket.
Change the currency
- Click the currency selector next to the language selector. It shows the current currency code (for example, EUR).
- Type in the Search currency field to filter the list, if needed.
- Click the currency you want to use.
Prices update immediately and show only values in the selected currency.
The available currencies depend on your Portfolio's configuration. If no currencies are configured for the Portfolio, the currency selector is hidden and all price values are displayed.
Good to know
- Your choices are personal: changing the language or currency affects only your view, not other users.
- Your preferences are remembered: you do not need to select them again each time you log in.
- Exports use the active language: a PDF or Excel export uses the language active when you generate it. Check the language before exporting.
