Thereafter, rename the CSV as “en_SA.csv” and translate all right side content after the comma in the Arabic language. After editing the CSV, save it.

Creation of Table Attribute
After the successful installation of the module, the admin can navigate through, Stores > Product > Add New Attribute for creating a table type attribute.
For reference, please check the below image:
After clicking on “Add New Attribute,” the admin will see various options, as per the below image:
Default label- The admin will enter the name of the attribute by which the attribute will get identified.
Catalog Input Type for Store Owner- Here the admin has to choose Input type as “Table,” to create a table attribute.
Manage Columns-
- Here the admin needs to enter the column values, which will display at the front-end as per the stores.
- The same column names will be visible during the product creation, where the admin will enter values from the back-end as per the description of the product.
- The admin can create multiple columns for the stores.
Different column values can enter by the admin as per the store.
After setting all the fields, the admin needs to click on “Save Attribute” to save the table attribute.
Assignment of Table Attribute
Once the table attribute gets created, then the admin needs to assign the attribute to the attribute set.
For this, the admin needs to navigate through Stores > Configuration > Webkul > Product Table Attribute as per the below image:
Here the admin needs to select the attribute set from the drop-down of Attribute Set ID.
Let’s assume that the admin selects the “Default” attribute set from the drop-down of Attribute Set ID.
Now, whenever the admin creates a table attribute, it automatically gets assigned into the Default Attribute set.
Another method to assign the table attribute:
The admin needs to navigate through, Stores > Attribute set as per the below image:
Now, the admin can select the attribute set in which they want to assign the table attribute.
Let’s suppose the admin selects the Default attribute set to assign the table attribute.
Then, the admin can assign the table attribute to the Default attribute set by Drag and Drop.
The admin will drag the table attribute from Unassigned attributes groups and drop it to the Default attribute groups.
