Business value
If a business operates in multiple countries or regions, it's helpful to be able to generate reports in multiple languages. ISVs can ship reports with Excel layouts where the Excel output can be translated into the user's language when they run the report.
Feature details
Excel layout authors can create reports that work in multiple languages. Layout authors can use $$ tags in Excel for the following:
- Worksheet names
- Chart headers
- Pivot elements
- Slicers
- Shared strings
Business Central replaces the tags at runtime when it renders the report. The following image shows an example.
