Change the name for the Views folder

Optionally, you can change the name that is displayed in IBM® Cognos® Workspace for the Views folder.

By default, IBM Cognos Workspace displays an Applications folder and a Views folder for each TM1® server that is identified in the tm1_contribution.atom file. The name of the Applications folder is returned by the TM1 server. The name of the Views folder is determined by a messages file that is provided with IBM Cognos Workspace.

Procedure

  1. Go to the install_location\templates\ps\messages directory.
  2. Create a copy of the tm1buxmsgs_en.xml file and name it using the appropriate language code.

    A sample French translation file is provided: tm1buxmsgs_fr.xml.

  3. Open the new translation file in an XML editor.
  4. Replace the word Views in the following section with an appropriate value: 
    <string id="TM1_VIEWS" type="String" usage="TM1 views">Views</string>
  5. Save and close the new file.
  6. Repeat the steps for each supported language.
