Import BIRT report to MAXIMO 7 with localized lables

avdouevs

I am trying to create my own BIRT 2.3.2 report for Maximo 7.1 (Base Services 7.1.1.6) and I have following problem. I define label texts using localize tab. When I preview my report in Eclipse all the labels are displayed correctly, however when I import my report to Maximo all the labels that are defined using localization feature are no displayed at all.

I do importing in the following way. First, in Maximo report administrator I choose "new report" and then fill in text fields.

File name: "file.rptdesign" file Application: WOTRACK
report type: BIRT folder: WOTRACK

After that I press save. Next, I select import report and select file "file.rptdesign" from my file system. I leave resource file field blank. Finally, I generate a request page and choose to preview the report. I don't get any error messages.

In the report, data is fetched correctly, not localized text is displayed properly, but localized text is not visible.


Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to do something with reports.xml file or do I have to do something with wotrack.properties file? I didn't add any new words to localization dictionary. Do I have to refer to WOTRACK application somewhere in the design file?

Question #2: If I add some new words in localization, how do I upload these changes to MAXIMO?


Thank you in advance,
Ivan

To upload resources to a report, put the files (properties, images, javascript, etc) in a zip file and put the path to this zip file in the resources field of the import report dialog.<br />

I hope this helps.
