Does anyone know how to get the member description in the user's culture code?

    ok, you can access the descriptions with the memberinfo object:

     

    Dim MemberIdOfAccount As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberId(si, DimTypeId.Account, "41010")
Dim test As MemberInfo = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberInfo(si, DimTypeId.Account, MemberIdOfAccount,,,New MemberDisplayOptions(True,"en-US",True,False,False,False,False,0))

BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, test.Descriptions("en-US").Description & " " & test.Descriptions("fr-FR").Description)

Dim MemberIdOfAccount As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberId(si, DimTypeId.Account, "41010")
Dim list As List(Of MemberDescription) = BRApi.Finance.Members.ReadMemberDescriptionsNoCache(si, dimTypeId.Account, MemberIdOfAccount)
Dim englisch As String = list.FirstOrDefault(Function(x) x.MemberDescriptionPk.Language = "en-US").Description
Dim french As String = list.FirstOrDefault(Function(x) x.MemberDescriptionPk.Language = "fr-FR").Description
BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, englisch & " " & french)

I love 'Dim englisch'. Endlich ein Tip in Deutsch!
But seriously, thank you so much for the tip. Exactly what we need to derive local account descriptions.
