Hi everybody,
I'm trying to run a report in an other language (English) than the default (Italian).
I followed the manual: in public folder I clicked on "run with option", then HTML format, I changed the language, saved and runned the report.
I cliked "refresh" until the view the output version for this report appeared in the action tool bar.
Then I clicked the query but it appears with the default language Italian (not the language i selected before -English).

There is some change that I have to do? The fields must be stored somewhere in the English language or it should automatically do the translation?

Thank you very much.

Hi Giorgia,

Cognos does support multi lingual reports however this does need to be setup by the modeller in Framework Mananger first.  It is possible to change the meta data e.g. column names, the actual content or both.

Have a look at the link below.  This should help you explore your options

Kind Regards
