Chinese/English characters in NAV 2015 report

jsinisa

Hi all,
we have request from our Chinese subsidiary to translate some report in Chinese, in the way that the captions in report are shown in both languages.
For example
or

it works if we both string in exported translation file for report:
R50026-Q51002-P26171-A1033-L999:Non Conformity Report 不合格报告
R50026-Q51002-P26171-A2052-L999:Non Conformity Report 不合格报告

and if client language is Simple Chinese

but, if user uses ENU then only English characters are shown

is there any way how to fix that?

You need to create UTF-8 files for these captions and put them on the server as described here.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/how-to--add-translated-strings-for-conflicting-text-encoding-formats
Since these are in unicode, you can type in any combination of characters you like for any language. These will replace the captions saved internally in the report as soon as they are available. You need to restart the service tier to activate these.

Hi Kowa,
I have tried that before I came here for help.
It works if Client language is Chinese, but not the other way around.

Now, guys from China telling me about other problem. If they add some Chinese text in Service Comments, it will appear in report, but only if text is added in ENU Client. If client is Chinese then nothing comes. Totally opposit
