Localize the Siebel Analytics Bridge

---

If your organization requires that Siebel Analytics data be viewed in a language other than English, you must also perform two additional steps as part of the Bridge installation and configuration:

• Add new localized Siebel Analytics screens and views
• Add localized seed data for metadata translations

These processes must be performed once for each language in which your data is to be viewed.

For additional information about deploying the Siebel Data Warehouse in non-English environments, see Deploying Informatica and Siebel Data Warehouse in Non-English Environments.

Add New Localized Siebel Analytics Screens and Views

Use the following procedure to add new localized Siebel Analytics screens and views.

To add new localized screens and views

1. Copy the following file:

   Copy	From	To
   views_configuration_<lan>.sif (where <lan> corresponds to the language to be installed)	704_Bridge \Localization\<lan>folder	views_configuration_<lan> .sif \tools\objects

2. Open Siebel Tools.
3. From Tools > Import from Archive, select the views_configuration.sif file.
4. When importing the file, use the Merge option. This process adds a set of Analytics Views, Screens, Fields, and Applets used to view Siebel Analytics content with the Siebel operational application.
5. Perform manual activation and inactivation of certain Siebel Analytics screen and views.

   After the import has taken place, certain Siebel Analytics screens and views must be manually activated or inactivate to optimally configure the bridge. The manual configuration steps required are:

   Screen	View	Manual Step Required
   ISS Analytics Screen	ISS Dashboard 1 View	Inactivate View
   ISS Analytics Screen	SSO ISS Dashboard 1 View	Inactivate View
   Siebel Answers	Siebel Delivers View	Inactivate View
   Siebel Answers	SSO Siebel Delivers View	Inactivate View
   ISS Analytics Screen	ISS Dashboard 2 View	Activate View
   ISS Analytics Screen	SSO ISS Dashboard 2 View	Activate View
   ISS Analytics Screen	ISS Dashboard 3 View	Activate View
   ISS Analytics Screen	SSO ISS Dashboard 3 View	Activate View

6. Compile a new .srf file.
7. Copy the following file:

   Copy	From	To
   <lan>_Locale.txt (where <lan> corresponds to the language to be installed)	704_Bridge \Localization\<lan>folder (where <lan> corresponds to the language to be installed)	<lan>_locale.sif\ tools\objects

8. Navigate to Tools > Utilities > Locale Management. Open Locale Management.
9. In the Locale Management window Options tab, from the Source and Target Language drop-down lists, select the names applicable to your locale. Use the following table:

1. In the Locale Management window Import Tab, click Browse to access the ~\tools\objects folder. From the \tools\objects folder, select the <lan>_locale.txt file you copied in Step 7. Click Import.
2. In the Siebel Analytics application, update the Integration Administration Screen with information pertaining to the Siebel Analytics Server. See the section in Siebel Analytics Installation and Configuration Guide on completing the Siebel Analytics initialization in the Siebel eBusiness application.

Add Localized Seed Data for Metadata Translations

Use the following procedure to add localized seed data for metadata translations.

To import Locale seed data into the Siebel OLTP database

1. Copy the following files:

   Copy	From	To
   seed_704_bridge__<lan>.dat (where <lan> corresponds to the language being used)	704_Bridges\localization\<lan> folder (where <lan> corresponds to the language being used)	Local Machine
   seed_704_bridge_<lan>.inp (where <lan> corresponds to the language to be installed)	704_Bridges\localization\<lan> folder (where <lan> corresponds to the language being used)	Local Machine

2. Open a command line, and navigate to the same directory where you copied the .dat and .inp files.
3. Replace these connection parameters with the values appropriate to your database environment, and then run the following import command, replacing <lan> in the command with the appropriate code for the language to be installed.
   • Connection parameters:
     • UserName
     • Password
     • ODBCDataSource
     • DatabaseOwner
   • Import command:

   $SIEBELSERVERROOT\bin\dataimp /u $UserName /p $Password /c "$ODBCDataSource" /d $DatabaseOwner /f seed_704_bridge_<lan>.dat /w y /q 100 /h Log /x f /i seed_704_bridge_<lan>.inp /l seed_704_bridge_<lan>.log

   NOTE:  For the dataimp utility to work under Oracle, your local and DB server must have the same language setting. Change the DB server language setting to the localized language, then try again to run dataimp.
