Symptom

When opening the Enterprise Search, you can see technical name of a custom business object you created (e.g. ZBusinessObject, Z_Business_Object). You would like to rename it to facilitate users reading.

  3. Select  'Enterprise Search Categories [/EnterpriseSearchCategories]' work center.
  4. Select UI Texts.

Then, when opening the Enterprise Search, you will be able to see recently translated texts.
