Working with the Dictionary

The dictionary stores all labels and their translations into all required reporting languages.

The user can provide a default translation that will be used if no translation for the specific language has been provided.

The default language should never be used to prevent an error message by providing a translation like “No translation was found”

If neither a translation for the specific report language nor a default translation is found

the execution will report an issue (of type error)
the report will show the text [TRANS:label] where the translated label should be rendered

Translations are used at multiple places:

Search	The user interface allows the user to search for translations containing a specific text either in the label or the translations
Search for missing translations	Having selected the languages of interest, the button “Only missing translations” can be used to find gaps in translations.
Edit a translation
Operations on dictionary	On the dictionary level there are the following operations “New Translation”: create a new translation (see Edit for screenshot) “Export Excel”: export the currently selected labels and languages to an Excel file (so a translator can be asked to fill the gaps) Export: get the dictionary as json Upload: upload a dictionary as json
