Editing Custom Labels

Sage People makes extensive use of Custom Labels to simplify customization and localization of the user interface. Many field labels, error messages, and email template components are supplied as Custom Labels. While the original value of the label is preserved, you can add your own version to more closely correspond with the needs of your organization. You can store customized values for each language used by your organization, including the default language.
