Advance Localization Technique

There are many cases where a user needs to run a report in a locale that is different than their own. For example a custom service representative in New York that needs to run a statement for a customer in Japan. <br />
<br />
The simple way to do this is simply add __locale=lang_COUNTRY to the URL that executes the report. For the example above that would be __locale=ja_JP. This will specify the locale for the whole report.<br />
<br />
There are more complex scenarios where different data items in the same report need to be formatted to different locales. For example the same customer service representative mention above needs to print statements for customers in Japan, France, and Germany. Attached is an example that shows a report that different data set rows are formatted to different locales based on data in that row.
