Switch Salesforce to German

There are 2 language settings in Salesforce: First, the general default language of the company and second, the personal language of a user. The default language of the company determines in which language texts, buttons, labels, etc. appear for all users. With the personal language, each user can override this setting for himself and thus determine in which language he would like to see the Salesforce interface. In the following we will show you how to change the general default language of the company as well as the personal language of a user.
