Overview

When translating individual pieces of content, it’s important to remember that this process is less flexible as it doesn’t allow the user to select languages to translate, or the content status (all, changed, none - untranslated). You can translate three different levels of content individually; Views, Reports, and Dashboards. This process will always export all text to be translated for the selected content, for all available languages, and will include any previous translations in the file.

Translating Views

  1. Open the View you wish to translate by navigating to Administration > Source Systems & Views, and selecting it from the list.
  2. Place the View in draft mode and navigate to the final step of the builder – View Summary.
  3. Click on the Create a Translation File link located in the bottom left corner of the General tab.

  5. Update the CSV with the required translations
  6. You will need to navigate to the View Summary page if you have moved away, and click on the Import Translated Content link.

Translating Reports

  1. Open the Report you wish to translate by locating it in the Report List.
  2. Place the Report in draft mode by clicking Edit > Format

  4. A CSV file will now be generated containing all the customised Report related text.
    Follow standard browser settings to save and open the file.
    Note: when exporting report translations, only text that has been customised in the report builder (since the view) will be included in the file. The report will inherit all other text from the view and as such, the view should also be translated. If there are no translations available, the original text will be used.
  5. Update the CSV with the required translations
  6. You will need to navigate to the Report Preview page if you have moved away, and click Edit > Import Translated Content.
