Setting Locale User Preferences for Reports

When generating a report, you can override the report locale by setting user preferences. For example, assume the default language for your deployment is English U.S. (ENU), you can choose to generate the report in another language, such as Japanese (JPN) or German (DEU).

NOTE:  If a default report locale is not specified in the report template, and a user has set the locale properties in their user preferences, the user preferences settings are used when the report is generated. For detailed information about how Siebel Reports determines the report language at run time, see About Working with Multilingual Reports.

To set locale user preferences for reports

1. Navigate to the User Preferences screen, then the Report Parameters view.
2. Change the Locale and Language properties to the language of your choice.

NOTE:  Setting user preferences allows you to generate reports in the locale you specified as long as there is no default language or locale set in the report layout template.
