Add multiple layouts to show a report in different ways. For example, you can define a different layout for each language in a multilingual report. This allows you to create a single report that can be viewed by report consumers that use different regional settings. - Setting up a Multilingual Reporting Environment

You can create a report in IBM® Cognos® Report Studio that can be viewed in different languages.
