Blitz Report Column Translations - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
Blitz Report Column Translations is a localization maintenance report. It lists the column headers for Blitz Reports and their translations for enabled languages. This report is essential for translators and administrators managing a multi-language reporting environment.
Business Challenge
- Translation Gaps: When a developer adds a new column to a report, they often forget to provide translations for other languages used in the company.
- Consistency: Ensuring that common terms (e.g., “Invoice Date”) are translated consistently across all reports.
- Review: Providing a list of terms to external translation agencies or internal business users for validation.
Solution
This report dumps the column headers and their translations.
- Audit: Filter by “Last Updated By” to see recent changes or by “Show obsolete only” to find translations for columns that no longer exist.
- Export: Can be exported to Excel, sent to a translator to fill in the blanks, and then potentially re-uploaded (using a separate upload tool).
Technical Architecture
Key Tables
XXEN_REPORT_COLUMNS: The master list of columns.XXEN_REPORT_COLUMNS_TL: The translation table.FND_LANGUAGES_VL: To provide human-readable language names.
Logic
The query joins the columns with their translations. It can filter based on the language code to show specific translations.
Parameters
- Column Name like: Search for specific terms (e.g., “%Date%”).
- Language Code: Filter for a specific language (e.g., ‘F’).
- Language: Filter by language name (e.g., ‘French’).
- Last Updated By: Audit changes made by specific users.
- Last Update Date From: See translations changed after a certain date.
- Show obsolete only: Identifies translations that are orphaned (the underlying column was deleted or renamed).
Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library
We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.
Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.
Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.
The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.
The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.
