System variables return commonly used and often variable pieces of information. They are global variables that are used across all LANSA partitions. Multilingual variables are specific to a partition and are used to store commonly used text in several languages. These variables can be used as field values, in validation rules or as command parameters. Multilingual variables are a part of LANSA's multilingual application support.
Important Note:
