Chapter 17 Language Support
Language Settings
The setting for triggers override the default system language. If you do not set the Trigger Locale 
language or set it to the system default instead of a specific language, the system default preferred 
language is used.
For more information about setting the language for triggers, see the “Managing Triggers” section on 
page 38. For more information about setting the default preferred language for the system, see the 
“Configuring System-Wide Voice-Mail Parameters” section on page 20.
For custom autoattendant and custom IVR workflow scripts, you can select the language used for playing 
prompts by using the following procedure in the script editor:
1. Create a variable of type Locale and use it to set the language
2. Set the language attribute of the Set Contact Info step with the variable created in step 1.
For more information about setting the language for triggers, see the Cisco Unity Express Guide to 
Writing and Editing Scripts.
