How to translate Report Constants OR how to add report headings which can be translated.

How to translate Report Constants OR how to add report headings which can be translated.

It seems to me that Report Constants cannot be translated through Vocab Overrides. I have a couple of custom reports where I added a Report Constant for column headings on the report. Is there a better method that I should have used which would allow for me to translate the heading?

Much appreciated.

Hi Steve,

I generally follow the method:

- adding variables instead of constants (though constants are translateble, except some part of run-time variables in UBE and Form Title of APPL)
- I enter Text variables on section and form levels
- I assign the Text Variables to the Report or Form variables or use SetFormTitle system function on forms
- Text Variables are translatable in Vocabulary Overrides

Regards,

Zoltán

Thanks Zoltan. I did not get a chance to try this out until now. Much appreciated.
