Objective:

Demonstrate how to translate a One View Report.

 

Duration:

35 minutes

 

Overview

One View Reporting empowers users to create and personalize reports from JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications. These reports can be shared easily across an organization. For multi-national organizations, a personal report can be translated into other languages.

For a One View report to be translated, it is critical that the report leverage the Use Data Dictionary Item Name in the Report Definition.

Use Data Dictionary Item Name: This option will use the column titles from the data dictionary. This option should be used if the report created needs to be translated. By using the Data Dictionary titles, the fields in Layout Editor will be the same for all languages and allow the report to be shared across languages.
