Country-specific covers: language localization

Hello everyone, about to publish my first iBook and I'd like to know if there is a way to give my book a different cover in different countries. I guess it would be a similar feature to app language localizations, where you have a single app and you can choose your language which gives you different content. Or do I have to submit a seperate book for each country if I want a different cover?
Another question: if I want to have my book availble for free in a country do I have to pay anything to publish it?
thanks!

Thank you. When updating table, "No maintenance objects found for table/view T581S".
Is there any other way out?

Using Country Specific Chart of Account in addition to Operational COA

Dear Team
We are implementing 16 company codes with Group COA A002 and
Operational COA A001 across all companies. Out of 16 Company codes 4
company codes already went live and running successfully. We are also
using one controlling area and operating concern for all company codes.
Out of 16 company codes there are 2 company codes from Turkey and
requires Turkey Country specific COA to be used mandatorily. But we
would like use same COA A001 for Turkey company codes in order to use
one Controlling Area across group which is not fulfilling the legal
requirement of the Turkey. We would like to use Country specific COA in
addition to the Operational COA and the same will be assigned to the
Company code in OB62.
In this case we need to create GL Accounts under Turkey COA and assign
the same in the Operational COA as alternate Account no.
In this case can we meet all the Turkey country specific legal
requirements as given below through Alternate GL Accounts No?Turkey Legal Requirements:
1.Country Specific GL account numbering
2.Reflection accounting
    - Monthly Closing for Expenses Accounts
    - Yearly closing for Expenses and Balance Sheet accounts
3.Inflation Accounting- Presently not using
4.Country Specific Reporting
5.Bank accounting- Bills if Exchange
6.Print out of Transactions in Turkish language
7.Cost of Sales statement
8.Document Journal
9.Taxes on Sales & Purchases
Please help in this regard.
Thanks in advance
Ravi Nalluri

Hi,
1. Create country COA in OB13
2. Assign it to your company code in OB62
3. Create GL accounts in your country COA
4. Assign country GL account to your operating COA gl account(FS00 > Control data > Alternative account no.)
5. System doesn't allow you to assign country COA gl if already has the balance
     So, change message settings accordingly in OBA5
6. You can see financials from your country COA also as F.01 & F.08(Select Alternative Account Number)

Why are HP printer cartridges country specific? Is there any way around this?

I have just moved from the UK to Newfoundland, Canada and I have brought my HP PSC 1610 printer with me. I was advised not to bring any cartridges with me because they would explode during the flight so I had to buy new cartridges upon arrival.
I noticed that the cartridge numbers recommended for my printer were similar but not exactly the same but the (HP, etc.) websites I looked at did not mention that HP printer cartridges country specific.
In the UK black cartridge is an HP338 (C8765EE).
In Canada the websites told me that the black cartridge is a 94 (C8765WC).
I ordered a 94 cartridge (which took an indordinate amount of time to be delivered) and when I installed it my printer would not accept it ("not intended for use in this printer" error message) even though it fit perfectly. I looked at the packaging in greater detail and noticed that I had been sent a 94 (C8765WL) and I also noticed (in a very small font size) "for sale only in Latin America".
My questions are therefore:
1) Why are HP printer cartridges country specific?
2) Is there any way around this? Eg is there anything I can do to my printer/ laptop to tell it to accept this cartridge?
3) Are 94/ C8765WL cartidges compatible with 94/ C8765WC cartirdges? Ie did the supplier sell me something that couldn't be used even if I had a Canadian HP PSC 1610 printer?
4) Can I return the cartridges to the supplier given that it is based in Canada, they delivered it to me in Canada and yet they sold me a product that says "for sale only in Latin America"?
Thanks

You will need to Contact HP to request a "Regionalization Reset". There should not be any charge for this, it is covered as part of the cartridge warranty. You will need to have access to your computer and printer while on the line with HP. You will also need to have a set of cartridges for the new region, once the reset is complete cartridges from the original region will no longer work. HP's web page on the subject is here.

Country specific add ons to ECC 5.0

We are on ECC5.0 version.
we were searching for Tax calculation procedures & tax codes for Phillipines & Thailand. But, we cannot find those with this standard package.
Please let me know if there were any country specific add-ons after this release. Where do you find these add-ons and how do you apply them?

Hi,
Have you tried the SAP service marketplace quick link /localization (
http://service.sap.com/localization)
There are pages detailing the support solutions for Thailand and the Philippines.
You will probably have to contact the local SAP contact for that country if you can't find the info you need from the links on the page.
Cheers,

Country specific to 99

Dear Experts,
Kindly let me know the possibilities to use some country version for other countries for which SAP localization not released
Since there is no SAP country specific version for Oman, is it possible to call Saudi specific schema and country specific feature from Other country versions (99)
Please provide your suggestions
Regards,
R.Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
i thing your talking about payroll.. If you don't have country specific payroll for Oman then you have to go for the international payroll. For this you need to use 99 as the country grouping ( molga). And use the international payroll schema X000.
you need to incorporate all your statutory deduction or payments via writing PCR. you should not copy the feature or schema for other country version because all this schema and feature will read the value from it's own specific country group tables. For an example if you copy the schema for Saudi, it will read the saudi country group payroll related tables.
But if you still wanted to make a copy , then you copy and make it to customer feature or schema and ask your ABAP er to change the structure of schema or feature to read the value according to your country group 99.
Regards,
Dinesh.

Crm country specific settings?

We are implementing Oppurtunity management in CRM for one of our clients in the usa. They have another office in mexico and want to make sure that whatever configurations & settings we do is viewable to their office in mexico in their local language.
I have never handled a multiple lanuage/country situation before. I want to find out that, if I make changes and customize their sales methodology. For eg I create a new phase called XYZ in the sales assistant. Will this get transalated to the spanish lanuage when they login in that language? What steps do I need to take to ensure this? Do I have to advise the client to have any country specific language versions installed?
I would greatly appreciate if you can help me out with this stuff.

Ofcourse you need to have Spanish added as an installed language. You Basis person should be able to do that without any problems. In addition, the users of the system should have their local language set. And finally, any developments you do may need to have some screen elements translated, unless you can stick with SAP supplied field elements (they get displayed in the proper language if this was installed by Basis)

I-views - Country specific settings

Hi,
We have a requirement of a WD ABAP application for education info in ESS for employee belonging to US, Canada and Trinidad.
I have defined the z-resource, z-service and the country specific settings for same as well as done the active subtype settings in spro.
For settings at the portal end, i want to know whether i will have to create an i-view for education data under the 'personal information' for each country?i.e. one education i-view for US, one for canada and one for trinidad. If yes, can all the three i-views call the same WD ABAP application?
If the above is done, then 3 pages will have to be created for the 3 i-views.
Kindly confirm my understanding.
TIA.

Hi,
You can just have one WDA and maintain OTR for the texts which are displayed on the view.
Using the FM SOTR_API_WB_TRANSLATE you can maintain translations in your required language.
Thanks,

SAP support for country-specific legal requirements

Just wondering if anyone could clarify how does SAP support work for the country-specific legal requirements. I'm sure in every country some new laws come to life regularly that affect the SAP customers and their ERP systems.
Case in point - on July 1st Mexican authority SAT decided to ask businesses to send them some XML files with some GL account information ('Anexo 24' - see the announcement in Spanish here). The deadline for the first file submission is October 2014.
This clearly affects every single SAP customer in the whole Mexico, as well as potentially many North America customers who have manufacturing facilities there. So would it be reasonable to expect SAP to come up with some standard solution? XML file extraction doesn't seem to be incredibly complex to me (although I might be off).
Another question - how would the customers know that SAP is aware of new laws and is taking some action? Could there be an announcement posted somewhere? There is a website for SAP Latin Americabut the latest announcement there is from June and nothing else is on the home page except for the HANA ads. (My Spanish is limited to "dos cervezas por favor", sorry if I missed something.)
In absence of such communication, naturally, the only option the individual customers have is to send a message to SAP. And that's where SAP replies with a copy/paste text (we got the same exact response as another SCN member here):
Feel free to maintain this incident opened, but contact us in the next three weeks, then we will be able to confirm if this legal requirement will be supported by SAP.
I'm confused - "IF"?! This is a legal requirement, there is no "if" for the business. Let's see if I got it right - we wait for 3 weeks, then SAP decides "nah, not gonna support that" (by the way, why is it on the customers to contact support again?) and every SAP customer in the whole country will have to scramble their own resources or pay for consulting (on top of SAP maintenance fees) to deliver the same exact set of programs on their own in under 2 months?
It could've been just an unfortunate choice of verbiage by Global Support, but I'm curious - is this really how the support for legal requirements supposed to work?
Thank you.

Hi Jelena,
Having been part of the SAP Globalization Services in Brazil, I understand a little bit of that process.
A few comments:
1) Localization of SAP solutions to country-specific regulation is under the responsibility of an area called Globalization Services. You can find more info about what they do here:
http://service.sap.com/globalization
2) Typically, those country-specific requirements are discussed in much details on the local ASUG chapters (at least that's how we did it in Brazil). That's why it's usually hard to find material in English, but I'd say that your local IT/Biz people in Mexico should be regulars in their local ASUG meetings, specially if they have a specific chapter to discuss Localization matters.
3) I found out this note with more specifics about "SAT Anexo 24".
http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/2041490
Apparently SAP is still analyzing it.
Suggestion if you want to speed the analysis up: reach out to your commercial contact in SAP.
4) Regarding your statement about the time it takes for the analysis & delivery to take place.
As an SAP customer, you have all the right to complain about the service level you're getting, it's just that, having been on the other side of the table, I know some facts that sometimes may be taken for granted. For example, SAP do not have infinite maintenance resources. I do understand that all customers pay maintenance and need to have their demands addressed, but SAP does not have a bench of developers available for whenever a new demand appears. If there is a new demand, they need to estimate the efforts and accommodate it into the development resource planning.
5) From a legal perspective, there is a difference between Legal Change and New Legal Requirement. The latter, if differing too much from the initial purpose of the acquired software, might not necessarily be required by the Software provider to be fulfilled within the maintenance scope. I'm not saying that it's the case for this Mexican requirement, I'm just saying there is this possibility, generally.
My personal recommendation: get your local Mexico people to be closer to the SAP Mexico team. They are usually responsible to publish information about such local requirements and the SAP release plan.
Hope that helps.
Best,
Henrique.

How to call the country specific application depending upon Pers area

We are using ess / mss on EP 7 and back end is ECC 6.0    .
Our requirement is
Though in R/3 for all employees country grouping maintained for all employees is 40 (India), As per project requirement we need to pull country specific screens for employee in portal depending upon the personnel area of logged in employee..
We need to pull the respective countries page based on the personal area of employee.
for e.g
If employee belong to per area   A   then he should get the US specific Adddress application
If employee belong to per area   B then he should get the India specific Adddress application
If employee belong to per area   C then he should get the IGermany specific Adddress application etc
Is there any configuration / way to achieve this functionality on portal
Reagrds
Rajendra

Hi Rajendra,
There is something called Internationalization of WebDynpro Iview. Refer this concept. When you will implement and import those packages in program at that time either languages will change automatically location based or u can put if() condition to make the things workable. But more important things will start supporting your IViews.

I have bought a IPhone 4 from Malaysia, my home button is not working. I want to replace the phone under warranty but all service centres mention that its country specific and I need to get it replaced only at malaysia. Can anyone guide me what to do????

I have bought a IPhone 4 from Malaysia, my home button is not working. I want to replace the phone under warranty but all service centres mention that its country specific and I need to get it replaced only at malaysia. Can anyone guide me what to do????

The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in
Malaysia the warranty is only valid in Malaysia
You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider
in India but there have been many similar posts to yours
and I am not aware of them assisting with an iPhone from
outside India

Country Specific Tax Registartion Validation/Check Rule

Hi,
Was trying to control vendor tax number registration in XK01, but rule 9 ' country-specific template' is not valid in OY17, is there where in SPRO to activate that? Or it has to be exit and logic defined there also?
Thanks.

Seems this solution should do but not sure if this is the only way,
activate 'check other data' in OY17 and use Tax Code 1/2 fields, then define rules in FUGR TSRV
