Go to 360° Feedback ↗ · Opens the webapp — please log in first · Requires 360° Feedback, the Multilingual Surveys and Dashboards feature and admin rights A 360° feedback run has one source language and as many additional languages as you need. You maintain the source language in the run’s other tabs, and every additional language in the Translations tab.

​
Where to find the translations

  1. Click 360° Feedback in the main navigation and open the run.
  2. Switch to the Translations tab. In the wizard it sits between Notifications and Schedule.
You see an overview of every language in this run with the columns Language, Progress and Actions. Progress shows how many of the translatable fields in that language are already filled in.
  • The tab only appears if the Multilingual Surveys and Dashboards feature is enabled for your account.
  • The source language is the profile language of the person who created the run. It is marked Source in the overview.

​
Add a language and translate it

  1. Below the overview, click Add language and pick the language you need.
  2. Select that language in the overview. The editor opens underneath: the source-language text on the left, the field for your translation on the right.
  3. Translate the content. You have two options:
    • Suggest all missing fills every empty field in this language with an automatic suggestion in one go.
    • Suggest translation next to a field creates a suggestion for that field only. You can of course also type the text yourself.
  4. Review the texts and adjust them where needed.
  5. Click Save.
Suggestions are only placed in the form, not saved. If you select another language without saving, your changes are lost — Honestly asks before discarding them.
Find & Replace lets you change a phrase across the whole language in one step, for example a technical term the suggestions translated differently. Before applying, you see every match in a preview. Have automatically generated translations checked by someone who speaks the language. Suggestions do not always get technical terms and forms of address right.

​
What you can translate

The editor is split into three sections, each showing how many fields are still missing:
  • Questions — for each question, the Question text, the Description and the Answer options.
  • Run texts — the run’s Name, Welcome text and Goodbye text.
  • Notifications — Subject and Body of the invitation emails, separately for Reviewer and Self-assessment.
Each person receives the invitation email in their profile language, as long as that language has been added to the run. Otherwise it is sent in the source language.
The results notification is fixed and cannot be translated.

​
What happens when a translation is missing

A language does not have to be fully translated before you can use it. If a translation is missing, the element is shown in the source language. The source language itself cannot be edited in the Translations tab. You change its texts where they are created: name, welcome and goodbye text in the Details tab, questions in the Questions tab and the emails in the Notifications tab.

​
Change the source language or delete a language

Change source language makes another language the source language. This only works with a language that is fully translated, meaning it shows 100 %. To remove a language you no longer need, use the Delete language bin icon in the Actions column. The source language cannot be deleted.

​
When to translate

Finish the translations before you schedule the run in the Schedule tab. That way, invitations and the survey are fully translated from day one. How to schedule a run is described in How do I schedule a run and what can I still change once it is active?.
