Implementing Languages for Portal

How do we handle the translations for the SAP R/3 data that is stored only in english in SAP R/3. I know that translations of the labels/headers that we create in a custom iview can be translated as they are static. But what is the mechanism ( other than configuring the language specific entries in SAP R/3) to translate the SAP R/3 content in different languages ?

Yes, you can implement SSO to SAP GUI via LDAP authentication.. The kerberos module is used for this.
Check [this|http://www.google.nl/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBcQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.realtech.com%2FwInternational%2Fpdf%2Fconsulting%2FWhitepaper%2FSAP_Single_Sign-On_und_Secure_Connections_via_SNC_Adapter_basierend_auf_Kerberosv5_en.pdf&rct=j&q=SAP%20SINGLE%20SIGN-ON%20AND%20SECURE%20CONNECTIONS%20VIA%20SNC%20ADAPTER%20BASED%20ON%20KERBEROS%20V5&ei=znmZTfK2OI2aOorQkbsH&usg=AFQjCNGjnQB2VpkwUw5eAwxAk1tp1gQnjQ&cad=rja] link on how to configure this.

  • How to set default language for Portal?

    Hi All,
    We use EP6.
    Default language is not defined and therefore is being set by the browser's language.
    Where do I set default language for all users?
    (I don't want that the users will be able to change it by themselves by browser/EU role).
    I tried to set the "request.mandatorylanguage" and
    "request.mandatorycountry" in prtDefault.properties but it didn't help.
    Thanks,
    Omri

    Hi Omri,
    are those to parameters
    request.defaultlanguage=...
    request.defaultcountry=...
    set in the prtDefault.properties, and the J2EE Server restarted after the change?
    Check out this thread and the link given there for more info: HOW to define the default language in the portal
    Hope this helps,

  • Forcing the language for portal content to English

    Hi All,
    We have to disable all other languages other than english for our portal content, i.e. when the browser language is set to any language other than english for any user, we do not want the standard portal  content to be rendered in that language, but the content should default to English.
    Please advise how to achieve this.

  • Implementing Language Change in Portal for annoymous users

    Hi
    i want to implement Language change option in portal for annoymous users
    can anyone help me with the procedure i need to follow for implementing the change of language
    Regards
    JM

    Currently there are 2 ways to do this.
    1. with URL iViews
    These iViews have the "Language specific URLs"-Option. There you can specify which html file schould be displayed depending on the language.
    But this works only for html files.
    This would work fine together with the things i explained above.
    2.switch between different anonymous user
    This is a little bit tricky. You need an application, that is able to switch between different user. For example: Switching from user german to user english.
    In this case you would have to assign the language specific contents to these users.Here is a blog that describes how to implement this application.
    Blog Link
    I am working currently on this to get it running. So if you manage to do so, you could help me maybe.:)

    You should not run any scripts from the production version of Portal within the EA version. The product version of Portal should be available in the next few weeks for NT.

  • SSO for portal ESS applications

    Hi all,
    We have implemented ESS in Portal.
    But we need to access the ESS modules outside the portal .. i.e,
    We need to access ESS applications from a .net portal..
    goal is to acheive SSO from a .net portal to SAP Portal..
    How to Acheive this. any approches/ best practices??
    Points for useful answers..
    Hari

    Hi,
    can you take a look at this thread: Re: SSO from SharePoint CMS to SAP EP that is connected to CUA
    The idea would be to "force" the users to log on to the portal (so that they have a SAPLogonTicket), redirect the users to your .Net application and from there they can access ESS scenarios (since they do have a SAPLogonTicket now).

  • 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 Portal’s 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 doesn’t 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!

  • Help, need to change IP address on host database for Portal

    Hi folks,
    Rather urgent assistance (as usual) needed. I have an installation working correctly on a pair of Win2k machines, one as the 9i database, one as the 9iAS/Portal. The app server has 2 NIC cards, one with public IP address (which is ok), one on the LAN. I need to reconfigure the LAN addresses on both the machines. Initial Portal install done without DNS, i.e. actual server/host addresses entered in the configuration.
    I have tried changing all of the TNS/Listner settings and the NIC card IP addresses and restarting the machines. The likes of SQLPlus work ok, with the TNS connect name allowing over the LAN access into the database with the new LAN addresses. I cannot seem to get the 9iAS/Portal to find the repository with the new addresses.
    Can someone help please? I can't find the answer in any documentation or other postings.
    Thanks in advance
    Rob

    There are other modes of operation for the plasst as well. I am listing them below but the formatting will make it difficult to read. If you like I can email it to you.

    Configuring Portal when the HTTP server host name of the Infrastructure is changed
    Run the following from the $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/opca dir
    ptlasst.bat -mode SSOPARTNERCONFIG -i typical -sdad portal -host myApache.domain.com -port 7777 -silent -verbose
    NOTE:
    (1) This command would create a new Portal partner application in the SSO to reflect the changes of the Infrastructure. Before running this command please ensure to configure the SSO with the correct hostname by running the ssocfg.bat script located in the Infrastructure install (<infra_home>\sso\bin).
    The value for -host parameter will be the IP address of the infrastructure server and -port will be the port where the infrastructure http server is running on.
    Configuring Portal when the HTTP server host name of the Middle tier is changed
    ptlasst.bat -mode MIDTIER -i typical -host myApache.domain.com -port 7777 -ldap_h myOID.domain.com -ldap_p 389 -ldap_w welcome -pwd secret123 -portal_only -oh /home/oracle -chost myHostname.domain.com -cport_i 8001 -cport_a 8000 -wc_i_pwd invalidator -mc false -mi true -silent -verbose
    NOTE :
    (1) The -host value should match the serverName value of the httpd.conf
    (2) The -chost should be updated with the correct webcache hostname. In a default iAS midtier install the -host is same as the -chost.
    The value for -host parameter will be the IP address of the midtier(portal) server and -port will be the port where the portal is running on.
    Parameter Description Default Value Mandatory

  • How to force english language for VC BI Iview

    Hi,
    All developments in BI system are english so when users launch VC BI Iview from the portal what ever the logon language in the portal we would like that users get results in english.
    In the VC iview, for parameter Forced Request Language we select value English but it doesn't work.
    We don't find other iview parameter which allows to do that.
    With BEX WEB template iview, we can do that by setting LANGUAGE=EN for parameter Application Parameters in the
    iview.
    Do you know how to force English language for VCBI Iview ?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Mai

    Hello,
    If you use Delta Links between your portal objects (role, workset, page, iview), make sure that the Forced Request Language is set to "English" on the linked iView (which is only accessible from the page, from the workset, from the role...)
