Adding Local Language For BW Reporting

Hi Guru's,
Currently I am working on BW 7, I got the customized data source from ECC6 with language translation in local language but there are yet to be any text, hierachies, master data or characters assigned to it yet in BW.
I would like to add a local language for reporting purpose. So that the user would be able to view the reports in both english and the local langauge.
Anyway by chance had a step by step document on how to do this? How to add the text and how to add the language to enable both eng and local language to be available for reporting?
Cheers
Tommy

Hi,
I hope you wont mind me asking for the steps on how to do this.
The customized data source which i had obtained from the ecc6 is zskat. And the local language which are actually being maintained in the R/3 FI-GL. The following fields in zskat datasource are:
KTOPL     Chart of Accounts
MCOD1     Search Term for Matchcode Search
SAKNR     G/L Account Number
SPRAS     Language Key
TXT20       G/L account short text
TXT50       G/L Account Long Text
If i am not wrong, SPRAS would be the key to the language right? I found that it is in the table T002, but again, how would i know which one would be the correct text?
Since the language translation had been maintained in the source system, i guess i wont need to use the flat file option do i?
Should I find the text data from the source system and load as you had advised? Should I do it through DTP and so on?
Could you show me some steps by steps if possible? Simple one if possible.
Cheers
Tommy

Enabling local language for client (Marathi Language)

Hello friends,
I want to enable Marathi language in IDES 6.0 (SQL 2005 Server, Unicode System).
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Satyajit Raskar

> I can see the local language option, what would be it used for in the system? Can I make any use of it?
SAP delivers by default only "English and German". If you want to add further languages they have to be imported from the language DVDs. Marathi is not part of those delivered languages.
> Can I be able to print ABAP reports in the local language?
Yes, you can print but you have to translate everything yourself.

Request for adding Sindhi Language for Nokia Mobil...

I am Creative Graphic Designer and have pointed out many omitted features for Adobe’s products like InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator, I have remained on top position in top ten participants of Features’ forum page in 2011 now am on second position by suggesting Adobe Abro Calligrapher which was missing.
It is highly commendable that your prestigious institute of Nokia is occupying a top level in the field of Mobile system. I have an advice, which if accepted, will certainly promote the dignity of your linkage world.
In our country Pakistan two languages viz Urdu and Sindhi are spoken which have its own alphabets. Sindhi is very old language of the world as its civilization. Sindhi language is very rich having great numbers of letters with the result anyone can pronounce any word of an other language of the world with right accent easily. Its letters are similar to Arabic language with slight difference of additional letters. If the letters / alphabet of Sindhi language are added / introduced in coming software of Nokia Mobiles, it will be great achievement of your institute on one hand and vast familiarity among mobile users, on the other.
I have also tried to get the same result for future software of Microsoft and Adobe to promote and facilitate the user’s interest.
I expect positive returns from your end.
Thanks

hi mate,
if you are referring to the Lumia line of Nokia phones, then you will need to leave feedback with Microsoft as it is up to them, not Nokia, to add language support: http://windowsphone.uservoice.com

Regarding Multi Language support for Z-Report

Hi Expert,
I have requirement of supporting multi language for Z- report.
My existing system default client language is EN. Now I have to use Z-Report in other language like DE (German), ES (Spanish) ._But when I tried to execute Z-report in Other Language.In Parameter screen it shows system fields (those I have defined in parameters fields variable) not a text field name._
If anybody have experience pl. explode how to resolve the problem.
thanks in advance and for solution I will give u full points.
Regards

Hi,
U have to maintain translations for the text elements and selection texts u created while creating the report. do like this.
Open ur report text elements in change mode.
Menu->goto->Translation* Here give the source language as EN and target language as DE(German) and press enter. It will show all selection screen elements and text elements. Here give the translated text in corrosponding language if have the one else u can simply give the english text itself. After filling all the elements just press save. Now u will get a success/status message
100% matches on all texts. U have to repeat this process for all the languages u want.
After this log in to ur other languages(other than EN) and check. What ever u maintained there those will appear here.
For standard reports/user exits u have to use transaction SE63 for maintaining translations.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Tip: adding metadata for customized reporting

Users sometimes build their own custom reports around dimensions specific to their company. For example, a bank may want to know about financial data elements that are high priority, but violate completeness rules. You can do this with Data Insight 11.5.1.1.
Simply have your Data Insight administrator choose weights, dimensions, priorities, and so on in their Data Insight UI. All of the users can choose Rule Classifications when they edit/create a rule and specify the appropriate items. This metadata is stored in the repository, which you can easily query for custom reports.
For more details, check the Data Insight User's Guide. Enjoy!

Unable to change language for SAP BW Report Iview

Dear all
We are currently rolling out BW Web Templates can be displayed in both EN and MS languages. The language can be changed via the URL that we display, e.g.
For English Language:
http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=EN&cmd=ldoc&template_id=ZTEST
For Malay Language :
http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=7&cmd=ldoc&template_id=ZTEST
We have published these templates into Ent. Portal 6 using SAP BW Report Iview, but unfortunately we cannot view the report in the Malay language (SAP-LANGUAGE=7), even though we have inserted the command SAP-LANGUAGE=7 in the SAP BW Report Iview query string. All the reports, although defaulted to SAP-LANGUAGE=7 displays in English. We also tried to set the language settings for the Iview, but there are no language 7 or MS in the Iview. It can only be defaulted to the Portals language, which is English.
Note that the reports can be viewed in the different languages if we using the URL separately outside of Portal, and also within BW Bex Analyzer itself. Only the Portal doesnt allow us to view the reports in MS language.
Can someone help us on this matter? All helps really appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Hi Chris,
That's a bit odd indeed. If I understand your question correctly, you do get the BW reports in the correct language (either English or Malay) using the url's in your post but not when using them within a standard BW report iView?
The language setting for the iView has, unfortunately, nothing to do with the language for the content itself but can you tell me what the requested URL is for both Reports?
The BW Report iView is based on the Application Integration Component that generates the URL based on the paramaters you provide in the BW report iView.The following template is being used: <iView[PORTAl_URL]>?System=<System[url_Encode]>&Report=<Report>&DynamicParameter=<DynamicParameter[url_Encode]>. I could be that the generation of the URL fails due to the 7 (don't know why, just a gut feeling because it's the only thing that's different between those urls). You could try to use create an iView based on the Application Integrator instead (some more control over the URL template) but first you need to check whether the URL generated by the iView is correct.
Cheers!

Find purchase order of a material batch added in a delivery for a report re

Hi,
I create purchase orders in ME21N and do the inbound delivery in VL31N referring the purchase order. Sales order entry is done in VA01 and once goods is in-house allocation is done in J3AB. Outbound delivery is created in VL01N.
For a report requirement I need to find the purchase order of the outbound delivery material batches.
We donu2019t maintain the purchase order number any ware in the material batch. Please advice me on how to find the purchase order of a material batch added in a delivery.
Thanks,

use Mb51, enter material number and batch number and movement type 101, then execute.
You get the receipt, go into the detail and you will see the PO number
Technically spoken, material movements are stored in MKPF and MSEG table

Is Locale required for multi language?

Hi Folks,
I used Locale to represent multi language or directly using unicode characters, these 2 scenarios as follows:
Using Locale:
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"%>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<%
        String language;
        String country;
        Locale locale;
        ResourceBundle rb;
            language = new String("hi");
            country = new String("IN");
         locale = new Locale(language, country);
         rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("MessagesBundle", locale);
         System.out.println(rb.getString("localeInfo") + " ( " +
locale.getDisplayLanguage() + "," + locale.getDisplayCountry() + ").\n");
        out.println(rb.getString("welcome"));
         out.println(rb.getString("sayThanks"));
%>
</body>
</html>And the property file is with name "MessagesBundle_hi_IN.properties":
localeInfo = \u0917\u0941\u0930\u0941\u0020\u0915\u0949\u092a\u0964
welcome = *\u0917\u0941\u0930\u0941\u0020\u0915\u0949\u092a\u0964*
sayThanks = \u0917\u0941
i got the required output.
Now with out using Locale i directly pass the unicode value directly and got the same output.
String text="*\u0917\u0941\u0930\u0941\u0020\u0915\u0949\u092a\u0964*";
//Character.subset block2=Character.subset(text);
out.println(text);
As we can do the same thing directly passing unicode with out using Locale then what is the use of it?
Thanks.
Edited by: RajeshwarReddyT on Jul 16, 2009 10:05 AM

Uhmm, the ability to present different text to different users dependent on the locale they are running in? Without having to pass in the specific text for a specific locale like you do in the second option?
Not to mention all the other stuff like date/time, numbers etc. that you also want to change acdording to locale - but since you specifically ask about language, let's ignore that.

Legal requirements for showing specific ESS screens in local language

Hi All,
I would appreciate if you can let me know if there is any legal requirements for showing specific screens in local language? I would also like to know which countries and what SAP ESS screens.
Thanks In Advance
Sunny

Good luck with that. I have never seen any "list of all countries" before like you are wanting. This will typically be part of your requirements gathering and blueprinting tasks.
Just one question....what is your "global template" for implementation and what is your scope for localization? That will dictate much of your work.
