Language Translations

The report titles and column headings of the supplied core reports are coded to use system text in the same way as the application caters for alternative languages and customization. A separate Reporting set of system text values is supplied, containing the default values and language translations. These may be customized and extended by the system administrator.

When designing a report, the system text unique key codes are used in place of fixed text. When the report is run, the text for the language of the user who scheduled the report is located, falling back to the portal's base language if no translation is present. Similarly, if the report contains data that has alternative language translation within the application, such as values that are derived from a glossary, the value is translated to the user's language if a translation is present.
