If a column is marked as multilingual, an extra button 
is displayed next to the input field.

-
The value is always entered in the input field in the specified default language. The value is then translated into the required languages.

You can edit translations in different places. When you change a translation, all those places are shown. Before changing a translation, check in the Designer about how it is used.

Handling issues caused by changing translation values
You can edit translations in different places. If you change a value that already has a translation, the change to the value may cause the translation to be lost. New translations must be created.
If you change a value that already has a translation, an additional button appears. This allows you to create a copy of the existing translation.
