InfoView Login - Language menu

Hi,
Is it possible to have a language menu during InfoView Login?
So that people can change between languages easier than with Browser or Locale settings within preferences?
Sometimes the same people need reports in two languages.
(I don't want to create the same report in german and english)
Or maybe it is possible to create a variable (within BEx Query designer or in Universe - doesn't matter) to define the language, that is used to display a report (basis BW query) in the chosen language?
(We have BOXI 3.1 SP3)
Thanks a lot!

Hi Muhammad,
Thanks for your answer.
Actually we have english and german installed, so all we need.
But it doesnu2019t matter if I set Preferences to English, German or Browser Locale. I always get the English headers in my WebI Document. (The universe underneath has a connection to SAP BW, where both, English and German metadata are available)
There is also no difference between universe connection logon parameters (Language free or u201CDEu201D ; When connecting to SSO u201CSaveu201D or u201Cdo not saveu201D)
I always get the English headers! The only thing that is switching from English to German is the report and query name within the WebI report. (As soon as I translate it with translation manager).
One more information: Within SAP BW german is the default language, not English!
I would like to have one universe that could return English or German metadata.
I think this should work, right?
The next thing is, that I would like to return english or german metadata depending on logon or variable in the report itself, not the browser or preference locale settings. Because this way, one user cannot get both versions.
Any proposals would be very helpful.
Thanks a lot.
Heike

  • Login language missing when opening a web query

    When I am opening a web query, e.g. using the execute button in Query Designer, I am not asked for the login language. Therefore, I am not able to chose the language. Instead, the language "DE" (German) is taken by default.
    I want to execute the query in another language (English). I can do that by adding "language=en" to the URL, but this is not a solution.
    I would like to have the option to enter the language together with the login information (user and password).
    Why is the language selection missing?
    How do I get the language selection?
    In BEx (Excel) I have the language selection field.

    try this suggestion as mentioned in oss websites and help websites
    When you log onto the SAP system, you must select a language. The following describes the process according to which the logon language is determined.
    The browser that is connected to the SAP Web Application Server as a client also has language settings. With Internet Explorer, you can set the language you require by choosing Tools ® Internet Options ® Languages.
    The logon language for the SAP Web Application Server is set according to the following process.
           1.      In transaction SICF, if the service has set the flag Mandatory Logon Data, the system uses the language that was entered there.
           2.      If this is not the case, but the HTTP request contains the language in the HTTP header (as a header or a form field), you log onto the system using this language.
           3.      The system then takes the browser settings. The system selects as the logon language the first language from the list that is maintained in the browser, and which is also installed in the SAP system.
    These are transferred using the HTTP header field accept-language.
           4.      If no language is defined by this process, the classic SAP system mechanisms are used. The logon language is based on the user settings (in transaction SU01) and if nothing is entered here, the default language of the SAP system is used automatically.

    our infoview login url is:
    http://server:port/InfoViewApp/logon.jsp

    Are you using Tomcat as a web server?
    A workaround is to use the following URL for the InfoVIew
    http:<server:port>/InfoView/loginNoSso.jsp

  • GL Account Text not displayed in Login Language

    Hi All
    We are having EN and NL as the login languages in our SAP ECC 6.0.
    We create  GL account in login language EN and maintain the English version description for  Short and Long text in "key word/translation" tab and  maintain  NL  short and Long text in the first tab "type/description"  under the  field group  "descrition in Maintenance Language (NL)" and the same is updated against DL language in tab "word/translation".
    My query is that since we are maintaining the short and long term description in both the login languages, why the system shows only the descrition maintained in DL in the short and long text under description field group( descrition in Maintenance Language (NL)" ) when the login language  is in EN.
    I would like to know how to get the short and long term descrition of the GL account to be shown according to the login language.
    Requesting your inputs at the earliest please.
    Regards
    Kamlesh

    Hi
    To clarify my doubt, We are  having  DL and EN language in our system and Chart of Account maintenance language is DL.  Because of this , GL account short and long text are maintained only in DL.  We have maintained translation in English for each GL account.  However when we logon with EN, system does not show the short and long text in EN instead it is shown in DL only.
    I would like to know is there any possibility to display the GL account short and long text description in English if the logon language is EN.
    Thanks in advance for your inputs.
    Regards

  • Business Objects XIR2 Infoview login issue

    Hello -
    I have a typical issue with BO Infoview login screen where the system name is showing incorrectly. The value should be coming from the configuration from web.xml file but it shows a totally different name with no option to update it. I checked the windows registry and system valiarbles but I haven't found anywhere on the system. Any ideas where this value is coming from ? Thanks.

    Thanks Denis. I see that the login issue has been resolved, but I noticed a different error when I login and logout from CMC. Here's the error message... not sure if this is connected to the previous one.

  • IPod stuck at "language menu"

    My husband's iPod fell into the hands of our 2 year old, and now will not go past the language menu. It charges just fine when plugged into the computer, but does nothing else. I think that it may have gotten wet with upholstry cleaner (it was on the couch in the spot that I was cleaning when I found it). I cleaned the exterior and set it out of his reach.
    Please help if you have any suggestions!
    Does water/liquid damage ever dry out, or is this ruined??
    Thank you!

    If you believe it got wet, which is a problem for iPods, don't try to use it anymore and set it in a cool, dry place for several days. After this connect to to power (a wall charger works best) and charge it for at least 30 minutes, then Reset it (hold the menu and center buttons down for 6 seconds) while it is connected to power. After it comes to life, Restore it in iTunes.

  • Default login language

    hi,
          After installing B1 on client station, the default log in language is Czech, if there is a way to install BI to have default login language is French, i mean for the first time login, the language is French, thanks.

    Hi
    After the installation this is the normal. But when you change for another one like French (exit and login in SAP B1) it should come with French.
    There's no way to change that in the initial installation.

  • Positions of windows getting changed for different login languages.

    Hi,
    I have to create a script having original language EN and translated to HE (hebrew) for cheque printing.
    I have created the layout having the main window and 8 other variable windows.
    When I am executing the script in EN the alignment is coming ok.. but whenever I am printing through HE, the alignment changes and it seems the windows are getting aligned from right to left.
    Is there any way possible to correct this, or can we dynamically change the position of the windows when we login through the different login languages.
    Thanks.
    Arindam.

    Hi Venkataganesh,
    The problem is that I need to create the same form for both EN (as the original key) and HE (as a translation) due to the programming standards we follow.
    This is also a functional requirement of the development.
    Though I know that this is difficult to implement, I myself might have found out the way to rectify the changes in window position.
    You can create the form in EN as usual, but when you login through HE you need to do the following changes just before the print.
    Customise local layout (Alt + F12) --> Charecter Set --> Hebrew (Right Justified)
    Though I must say that since I do not have a printer configured to my ODC I have never really tested this but the print preview seems to come correct.
    Would definitely like to know your comments on the above.
    Regards,
    Arindam.

  • Bypass INfoview Login Page

    Hi
    We have enabled Single Sign On for Windows NT Authentication. (.Net environment and Windows2003 server, BO XIR2)
    I was wondering if there is any way to bypass the infoview login page so that user does not need to select the windows NT authentication and is directly taken to his or her home page.

    The Steps to Bypass the infoview login page are as follows :
    Enable NT Authentication
    1. Start the Crystal Enterprise Launchpad.
    2. Click 'Central Management Console'.
    3. From the Central Management Console (CMC), click 'Authentication'
    4. In the 'Windows NT' tab, ensure that the 'NT Authentication is enabled' check box is selected.
    5. Ensure you have configured the default domain and add the groups you want to give access to.
    NT Authentication is now enabled.
    Disable anonymous access
    1. On your web server computer, go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Internet Services Manager. The 'Internet Information Services' dialog box appears.
    2. Click the '+' sign next to the computer icon to expand the view.
    3. Click the '+' sign next to the 'Default Web Site' to expand the view.
    4. Right-click the Default web site folder and then click 'Properties'
    5. Click the 'Directory Security' tab and then click the 'Edit' button in the 'Anonymous access and authentication control' section. The 'Authentication Methods' dialog box appears.
    6. Clear the 'Anonymous access' check box.
    7. Repeat the above steps for your application's virtual folder.
    Anonymous access is now disabled.
    Enable impersonation in your .NET application
    \Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\Web Content\Enterprise11\InfoView
    Once the web.config file is open, use the following steps to modify this file:
    1. In the <WebDesktopSettings> section, change the following values to reflect you installation:
    <add key="cmsDefault" value="CMSMachineName" />
    <add key="ssoEnabled" value="true" /> (changed from "false")
    <add key="authenticationDefault" value="secXXXXXXX" /> (i.e. secWinAD for Windows Acitve Directory)
    2. In the <system.web> section, find the authentication section and modify the following line:
    From: <authentication mode="None" />
    To: <authentication mode="Windows" />
    3. Add the following key before the "<authentication mode="Windows" />"
    <identity impersonate="true" />
    Restart the IIS server for the effects to work , also make sure the servername is added in the trusted sites
    And now use the following link:

  • Login window menu

    I am setting up the Macs here at our high school and we would like to reorder the sequence of accounts in the login screen menu from the default alphabetical listing. For example we would like Teacher then Student then Admin as the sequence in the menu. I have searched high and low and found nothing. The closest were some discussions on hiding an account. We do not want to resort to setting the login for the input of username and password. We like the more Mac-like menu with icons. Is there any way to do this?
    eMac, PowerMac, MacBooks   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    If you're using OS X Server or some other means to set up and deploy the machines, there's probably something in the Server documentation http://www.apple.com/server/documentation/ or you could post your query to the Server forums.

  • IPod won't turn on, won't turn off and gets frozen on language menu!!!

    I have reset my iPod by toggling the Hold switch then holding down the Menu & Select buttons simultaneously for several seconds multiple times....
    Now, when my iPod is NOT plugged into the USB connector it will not turn on or do anything. If I toggle the Hold switch to lock then back to unlock, the iPod resets...the apple logo appears then the language menu appears. The iPod "freezes" on the language menu and the click wheel will not turn or make any noise.
    And when my iPod IS plugged up to my computer via the USB connector, the iPod cuts on, syncs with iTunes, then goes to the language menu where it becomes "frozen." If I toggle the Hold switch, it "resets" the iPod by showing the apple logo followed by the "Do not Disconnect" icon because it is syncing the iPod again, then goes back to the language menu and "freezes."
    Please help! I have restored my iPod twice and checked for new updates, and I cannot get it to do anything...just stays hung up.

    Hi,
    I'm having the same problem, and tried everything to sort it. I've reset 10 times at a time, I've restored on 4 occasions and re formatted the hard drive. It syncs with the computer without any problems, but the dial just won't work.
    Have you managed to do anything with it, or are you still locked? If so, what did you do?
    Does anyone else have any ideas on what to do?
    Thanks,
    Lisa
