Filter selection strings RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi,

    I have a multi language crm environment and need for a report the filter criteria in different languages. If I choose the Activities in the Institution form I have different values for "Filter On". In which SQL Server table are these values stored? It isn't StringMap as I had expected.

    E.g. I'm searching for the table with the filter value "next 30 days"

    Best regards, Eckart

  • Are you asking for a way in which the base language will allow you to select a language in which to run a report? I don't believe it works that way. I'm pretty sure the language can only be specified by the user (in the options menu). This is where you would select the language you wish to use.

  • Hi Dodd,

    depending on the current language of the user I'm looking for the picklist filter values in that language. I was able to build the reports dynamically so that the labels are language specific, I also found a way to use the filter picklist values dynamically but, of course, that only does work when I know the table/entity that stores the values. I still didn't find that one with the value "next 30 days"

    Best regards, Eckart

  • I don't think that these labels are stored anywhere in the database - I believe they are hard-coded into the CRM binaries or resource files

  • Hi David,

    thx for the answer. The hard coding is a surprising way.
