Dear community,
I’d like to know, if in DMS, we can manage different languages for the same doc_class / doc_no / doc_rev / doc_sheet ?
Our need is to have one document available in many languages.
I know that for the doc templates, we can have a different template based on the language and so, I thought that we could have such a flexibility behind a document revision…
We are using the version 8 but migrating to Cloud 22R2
Thanks for your help

Hi
To create different languages from the same document in the DMS, the best way is to create a new sheet:
This means doc_class / doc_no / doc_rev remain identical, doc_sheet is incremented. I hope this helps.

+32Making use of the sheet concept, which is not very common I think, is a good idea here. It's made for scenarios like this when you want different content for the same document number/title without having to use revisions for that. Sheets are almost like different documents but still grouped under the same document number and using the same title.
So good suggestion by

+32Forgot to mention: you can even keep the language in the Doc Sheet column itself, which makes it very easy to find it when attached to objects.
