Checking the Execution Order of Initialization Blocks

This task is part of the Process of Maintaining Translation Tables for Analytics.

This topic applies to an integrated Siebel Analytics environment in which display names are externalized. The language of the metadata in Answers (the Subject Area and column names) depends upon the initialization block LOCALE, which must be executed before the External Metadata Strings initialization block. The following procedure describes how to check the precedence of initialization block execution.

To check the execution order of initialization blocks in the Siebel Analytics repository

1. Stop the Siebel Analytics Server.
2. Open SiebelAnalytics.rpd using the Server Administration Tool in offline mode.
3. From the menu, navigate to Manage > Variables > Initialization Blocks and double-click Externalize Metadata Strings.
4. Click the Execution Precedence tab.

   Make sure that the LOCALE initialization block is shown as executing before Externalize Metadata Strings.

5. Click OK and close Variable Manager, and exit the Server Administration Tool.
6. Restart the Siebel Analytics Server.
