Externalize Strings

This utility is primarily for use by translators to translate internal text strings displayed in the Administration Tool. It allows Siebel Analytics Web users using a language other than English (US) to see the names of catalogs, tables and columns, and their descriptions, in their own language.

NOTE:  Before using this utility, translators should consult with Siebel Systems.

To translate a string

  1. Right-click on a Presentation Catalog in the Presentation layer and select the options Externalize Display Names and Externalize Descriptions.
  2. Start the Externalize Strings utility by selecting Tools > Utilities > Externalize Strings from the toolbar, and then click Execute.

    3. Clicking on the Presentation Catalogs in the left pane shows, in the right pane, the translated values and the original strings (names), which will be placed in session variables for use by Siebel Analytics Web.

  3. Click Save to save the strings in the selected format.
  4. Click the Close button to end the utility.
