Localize new Unica custom reports

You can localize your custom reports. Birt uses Resouces.properties files to translate strings. These files are copied to Unica_Home/Platform/Insights/Reports/ Resources folder.

Resource properties files possess a key for each string. In your custom reports, you must map keys for the report's strings in the report design. You can use Unica properties files for the strings, which are already translated. However, if you have new strings, you can get their translated strings from your language teams. Birt supports ASCII formatted translation.

For all new strings, you must also generate new keys which must follow a custom format. Ensure that you do not use Unica key format or numbers.
