Determining the Language

The language preference from a shop account is retrieved and set when a shop account logs in. This is only the case for shop accounts related to contacts and customers (not Sales Representatives).
The language preference of a customer is retrieved from the customer card. Open a customer card and click on the 'Foreign Trade' tab. Here you will see the field 'Language Code' where you can set a default language for this customer.
 

'Customer Card' with the 'Language Code' Field
 
The language preference of a contact is primary retrieved from the contact card.
If it is not available it will be retrieved from the related customer card. Open a contact card and click on the 'Communication' tab; here you will see the field 'Language Code' where you can set the preferred language.
 

'Contact Card' with the 'Language Code' Field
 
Remember that a customer always can overwrite the default language or own language preference on the webshop by selecting a different language in the language dropdown.
Sales Representatives do not have their own language; their language is the one which is selected in the language dropdown in the webshop.
