Strings Table in PeopleSoft....

Strings table is a record which stores multilingual labels for SQRs.

Something confusing!!!

Let me explain...

There is a delivered sqc (i.e. sqrtran.sqc) which is used for multilingual sqrs.In customized sqrs we have to call this sqc and the respective procedure.
When we are running sqrs from process scheduler it fetches the language code and find the lables from Strings table (PS_STRINGS_LNG_TBL) with respect to language code except ENG.For ENG it refers PS_STRINGS_TBL.

We need not to hard code the lables for different languages in the sqr.

We can check also some delivered SQRs like PER001.sqr etc.

For doing this just logged in to PIA with a language other than ENG and follow the below navigation.

Main Menu > PeopleTools > Utilities > Strings Table

Then we can search per001 by giving as the program id.Then just translate a label to the particular language & save it.

Then try to run the sqr and see the label at output.
