Adding Custom Translations to S_MSG Table

The tasks in this section are part of the Process of Maintaining Translation Tables for Analytics.

When you add custom objects to the metadata and choose to externalize these objects (by right-clicking the object and checking the Externalize Display Name option), the Siebel Analytics Server looks for the translations (including those for the native language) in the S_MSG table.

If you do not externalize the display names, you do not need to perform the following procedures.

NOTE:  The custom Presentation layer objects show up only in the native language of the metadata (the language in which you added these new objects).

The tasks for adding custom translations to S_MSG table require the use of Siebel Tools. These tasks are as follows:

• Adding Lists of Values for Siebel Analytics Metadata
• Adding String Translations for Siebel Analytics Metadata
