Steps: Translate Labels Using Resource Files
Create a report design file.
Report Designer can automatically translate label text using user-configured locale-based
resource files. When you generate a PDF, Report Designer selects the relevant
resource file, based on the user's preferred language setting, and performs the
translation. This means that different users who need to generate documents in their
own language can use the same business form layout.
- Provide a resource file for the default locale's language even though you aren't translating the label text into that language.
- Provide resource files for each target language that you wish to offer as a translation option.
- Associating a label with a resource file key pair in the default locale language enables Report Designer to match the same key pair in the target language.
- You can preview a translated report design before deploying it to Workday by changing your locale preference.
