106 <strong>BMC</strong> <strong>Remedy</strong> <strong>Mid</strong> <strong>Tier</strong> Guide<br />

Users can only see those Web reports for which the Locale field in the Report form<br />

entry matches the locale set on the user’s computer. ($NULL$ is interpreted as<br />

English.) This means that to share an ad hoc report with a user in another locale,<br />

you must make a copy of the report for the other locale.<br />

To make an ad hoc report available in another locale<br />

<br />

1 In the Report Console, open the original report for editing. See “Editing and<br />

deleting reports” on page 176.<br />

2 Click Save As, and give the report a different name, such as My Report-Spanish.<br />

3 Open the Report form, and then locate and open the record for the copied report.<br />

4 In the Locale field, enter the two-character or four-character abbreviation for the<br />

locale where you want to share the report, such as es for all Spanish locales or<br />

pt_BR for Brazilian Portuguese.<br />

5 Save the entry.<br />

Users in the designated locale can now see the copy of the report that was<br />

configured for their locale. Once you have set the locale for the copy of the report,<br />

the copy no longer appears in the list of reports in your Report Console.<br />

NOTE<br />

The steps in this procedure do not cause the report headings and other metadata<br />

to be translated; the report definition remains in the original language. To create<br />

translated copies of ad hoc reports, you must create the report on a computer<br />

configured for the desired locale.<br />

Preconfigured localized reports<br />

Localized Web reports are installed by the <strong>BMC</strong> <strong>Remedy</strong> applications and you do<br />

not need to make changes. This section describes how they are configured.<br />

To localize a Web report created outside of AR <strong>System</strong> with the BIRT report tools,<br />

you can either localize separate copies of the report definition file, or use a single<br />

report definition file and localize the related properties files.<br />

Separate localized report definition files<br />

Create an entry for the localized Web report in the Report form. In particular, set<br />

the following fields:<br />

Report Definition File—Attach the localized report definition file in this<br />

attachment field.<br />

Locale—Enter the locale code, for example, fr for French.<br />

Report Set Name—Use the same report set name for localized versions of the<br />

same report. The combination of the report set name and locale must be unique.<br />

Do not enter anything in the Instance ID field.
