Language Codes {GCS-6}

The system allows the creation of any number of language codes. Each of these user-defined codes must also be linked to a SAPSE-defined language code (see SAPSE 005 and Table 2.7). This allows for the identification of: for example French and German, on the local system, whilst in SAPSE reporting all these could be reported under "Other European Languages".
