Business value

You can now more easily select or change the UI language that you use. When administrators make only the languages that their environment supports available for selection on the **My Settings** page, they save time and reduce confusion for users.

Feature details

Business Central's user interface is translated by apps that Microsoft provides, or by language apps that our partners provide on AppSource. Administrators install the language apps in their Business Central environment. On the My Settings page, you select the language you want to use for Business Central.

Previously, when you selected your desired language, you chose from the full list of all languages that the Business Central platform supports, regardless of whether a language app is installed. This experience sometimes caused confusion and made it more difficult to select a language. In most cases, only a few languages are relevant for an environment.

Administrators can now use the new Allowed Languages page to define the languages that appear when people select their language. When you show only supported languages, it's easier to select a language you can use. This change helps avoid confusion.
