Localizing Field Labels in UI Forms

You can localize UI form field labels by creating and using a file containing localized versions for your target system fields.

To localize field label that you add to in UI forms:

1. Create a properties file (for example, GR_ja.properties) containing localized versions for the column names in your target system (to be displayed as text strings for GUI elements and messages in Identity System Administration and Identity Self Service).
2. Log in to Oracle Enterprise Manager.
3. In the left pane, expand Application Deployments and then select oracle.iam.console.identity.sysadmin.ear.
4. In the right pane, from the Application Deployment list, select MDS Configuration.
5. On the MDS Configuration page, click Export and save the archive to the local computer.
6. Extract the contents of the archive, and open the following file in a text editor:

   SAVED_LOCATION\xliffBundles\oracle\iam\ui\runtime\BizEditorBundle_en.x

7. Edit the BizEditorBundle.xlf file in the following manner:
   1. Search for the following text:

      <file source-language="en"
      original="/xliffBundles/oracle/iam/ui/runtime/BizEditorBundle.xlf"
      datatype="x-oracle-adf">

   2. Replace with the following text:

      <file source-language="en" target-language="LANG_CODE"
      original="/xliffBundles/oracle/iam/ui/runtime/BizEditorBundle.xlf"
      datatype="x-oracle-adf">

      In this text, replace LANG_CODE with the code of the language that you want to localize the form field labels. The following is a sample value for localizing the form field labels in Japanese:

      <file source-language="en" target-language="ja"
      original="/xliffBundles/oracle/iam/ui/runtime/BizEditorBundle.xlf"
      datatype="x-oracle-adf">

   3. Search for the application instance code. This procedure shows a sample edit for Generic SCIM application instance. The original code is:

      <trans-unit id="$
      {adfBundle['oracle.adf.businesseditor.model.util.BaseRuntimeResou rceBundle'] ['persdef.sessiondef.oracle.iam.ui.runtime.form.model.user.entity
      .userEO.UD_GENERIC_NAME_GIVEN_NAME  c_description']}">
      <source>Name Givenname</source>
      <target/>
      </trans-unit>
      <trans-unit id="sessiondef.oracle.iam.ui.runtime.form.model.GRGAForm1.entity. GRGAForm1EO.UD_GENERIC_NAME_GIVEN_NAME c_LABEL">
      <source>Name Givenname</source>
      <target/>
      

   4. Open the properties file created in Step 1 and get the value of the attribute, for example, global.udf.UD_GENERIC_NAME_GIVEN_NAME = \u4567d.
   5. Replace the original code shown in Step c with the following:

      <trans-unit id="$
      {adfBundle['oracle.adf.businesseditor.model.util.BaseRuntimeResou rceBundle'] ['persdef.sessiondef.oracle.iam.ui.runtime.form.model.user.entity
      .userEO.UD_GENERIC_NAME_GIVEN_NAME  c_description']}">
      <source>Name Givenname</source>
      <target>\u4567d</target>
      </trans-unit>
      <trans-unit id="sessiondef.oracle.iam.ui.runtime.form.model.GRGAForm1.entity. GRGAForm1EO.UD_GENERIC_NAME_GIVEN_NAME c_LABEL">
      <source>Name Givenname</source>
      <target>\u4567d</target>
      

   6. Repeat Steps 7.a through 7.d for all attributes of the process form.
   7. Save the file as BizEditorBundle_LANG_CODE.xlf. In this file name, replace LANG_CODE with the code of the language to which you are localizing. Sample file name: BizEditorBundle_ja.xlf.
8. Repackage the ZIP file and import it into MDS.
