Translate all text content
Only the fields updated in Step 2 will be automatically translated.
For any additional custom content, such as text boxes, translate manually to ensure the document is fully complete.
Make sure that headers in your elements such as Room Block, Menu Items, and Events/Spaces are updated with the correct translation in the Component Name “Optional Label” field.
