Does anyone know enithing about BaaN in Chinese characterset? My company have to implement BaaN in our Chinese place, so I would like to know any notice!Tanks

Hey,

I am just the Finance part of our implementation Team, but I do not remember that we had problems to the multibyte font.
The bigger was problem the logique of chinese finance transactions and cultural things, between chinese and german culture.
There is a chinese localization, but at that time, 2001, there was no solution for the preprinted invoices from the government.
If the problem still exists, call again please.

Regards, Juli

You can order a copy of Baan Chinese version and there is a country specific note with it. On the country specific note, it will specify the characterset of the DB and also the environment setting of the Operating system.

Since Baan does not support Unicode, you cannot input Chinese characters and German characters in the same installation :mad:

Hi July, thanks for the answar. Has your company already done the installation in China? Or does your company think to set it in the future? In any case, which is the company that provide to you for the installation?
Regards!

Thanks for answering to me. i understand the problem. But I can solve it buying another server. Do you think that is possible for me having BaaN in Chinese on a Win 2000 server? Has it to be installed in chinese? In this moment I have 5 companies centralized in my server, that is a Unix server. But, I would like to install BaaN for my Chinese companies on another environment. My only doubt is: could I have a user working in english?( for making maintenance to BaaN!)
Thanks a lot

Yes, of course you can put the Chinese version in another box. Simplified Chinese characters contains ASCII code. You can switch the user interface between Chinese version (o) and English version (2), but not other European language, like German.
