Multilingual entity and security text are reported with the same field attributes as used when reporting English text from the same fields. You do not have to develop a separate set of field attributes for each language you support.
However, you must select Wide Character as the Field Type. A Wide Character field, when reported using a non-English language selection in an OLAP report profile or a Data Mart model, looks to the appropriate _ML table for its data. Wide Character Field Type shows a field attribute against ENTITY_NAME that looks for data from ENTITY_ML or ENTITY_ML_HIST when local-language reporting is enabled.
The Wide Character Field Type is also required for an entity or security field attribute that has a local-language translation of a code value, or is a rollup or inference field based upon such a field.
