/etc/<strong>opsi</strong>/hwaudit/locales/de_DE, one would see that the attribute of "COMPUTER_SYSTEM.systemType" will<br />

be translated into "Typ" for German. Finally another suggestion: When a new field is created, it should be placed in<br />

these files, even if one does not translate the term explicitly. This avoids any "Warning" messages.<br />
