Overview

A locale is a specific dialect of a language spoken in a region such as Canadian French, Mexican Spanish, and US English. Localization is the process of customizing an application for a given language and region. This document describes how
BlackBerry AtHoc
has been localized to accommodate users with locales beyond US English.
Within the
BlackBerry AtHoc
system,
Organization
locales define the way the user interface appears to operators, while
Delivery
locales define the way
BlackBerry AtHoc
alerts appear to alert recipients. Although an organization can be associated with only one organization locale, it can be associated with multiple delivery locales. For more information, see Set delivery locales for an organization.
This document lists the organization locales supported by the
BlackBerry AtHoc
system and explains the process by which the system determines a user's locale and the impact of localization on the operator user interface. This document describes how to set delivery locales for an organization and how to specify a delivery locale when creating an alert. The characters supported in the system and a list of the localized and non-localized pages in the
BlackBerry AtHoc
system is also included.
