Community Reports

From My Reports

When a report is copied as a community report, the platform creates a separate template of this report that includes the system filter value in the community page and the report is marked as read-only. This copy becomes a community report.

The system filter value is now considered as in the language of the user who is running the report if the Localize flag is checked. This might not yield the desired results if the language of the user who is running the report is not the same as the language of the owner who originally created the report. In this case, the community user needs to copy the community report to his My Reports page and update the system filter value to be in his language.

From System Reports

When a system report is shared to the community, the platform does not create a new instance of the report. It is the same system report when run from the community page. The query engine treats the system filter of a system report depending on the value of the Localize property in the System Filter Columns section.

The System Filter Columns section of a system report includes a Localize property flag for each system filter. An application builder can use the internal value of the localizable field or the runtime value. By default, this is cleared for new and existing system reports. If an application builder checks this property, the query engine at runtime treats the text literal in the language of the user who is running the report. If it is cleared, the query engine filters the results based on the internal values from the main tables.

Language

The Language column in the community page shows the language in which the report was created.
