How to add missing translation terms

Asked by Tanel Kurvits

Administration (<- ok can translate)

     On Demand Control (<- Missing in *.po files)
                > Hours per User (<- Missing in *.po files)
                > Hours per Month (<- Missing in *.po files)

Searched that strings everywhere in all *.po files but not success.

I tryd edit /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/openerp-server/addons/base/i18n/et_EE.po
Added there:

msgid "Hours per User"
msgstr "Tunde kasutajakohta"

But after db update and server restart still not working! Tested and changed different string there and changes working so not my update fault. Where i do mistake?

Can you add that strings in launchpad and in *.po files?
So please help me that point and i can continue help translate your amazing software.

Founded how fix at least one string

Add in your_lamguage. po
*.po file rows

#. module: base
#: model:ir.ui.menu,name:base.menu_use
msgid "On Demand Control"
msgstr "YOUR LANGUAGE STRING"

Now i mast think how fix strings:
                > Hours per User (<- Missing in *.po files)
                > Hours per Month (<- Missing in *.po files)

The comments above explain how you can add manual translations in .po files, but there are several simpler ways of doing it, for example:

- within OpenERP go to the translation terms list in the Administration menu, and you can directly add new translations there, effective immediately
- after adding new translations in OpenERP you can use the export wizard in the Administration menu to export updated .po files
- instead of manually editing the .po files you can also use a PO Editor software, such as POEdit

Can you help with this problem?
