如何将翻译添加到 odoo 15 中的自定义模板

Question

In odoo 15 I have created a custom layout template for an invoice report (PDF). This template contains some texts in German language. Where do I have to specify any translation of these texts so they are considered if the invoice is printed in eg English?

Answer 1

Activate debug mode.

1. You can find it in settings > translations > Transleted terms, and you search for your germans terms for translate them one by one.

2. You can set your template manually, settings > Technical > Email templates and now you can edit the template. But this is a non-dynamic solution.

More dynamic way:

3. Use.po,.pot files in your custom modules. if you have computed strings in your template use the function "_" before. Ex:

my_str = _("Hello, how are you")

afterwards, edit the '.po' file

Look at the documentation here: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/16.0/developer/howtos/translations.html
