Installing a New Language- Mass Updating Info Object Descriptions ?

We recently installed a new language in our BI 7 system (Patch 16). But the Active SAP delivered info objects (namespace 0nnnn...) did not 'inherit' the SAP provided translations into the new language.
I can update each info object one by one with descriptions in the new language.
I can use the translation utility (once I figure it out) to updated the descriptions.
I can activate standard business content which seems to contain the new language.
But I'm hoping for something easier and less intrusive. I'm hoping there is a hidden SAP program that merely adds the description in the new language to my existing info objects from the Standard Business Content, without any reverse engienering, redesign, and so forth.
Is anyone aware of anything like that ?

Here's the answer from our discussion with SAP.
There is a program RSDG_LANGUAGE_AFTER_IMPORT that you can run. This program replaces the object description texts in your active SAP Delivered objects with the text description from the Delivered version in the language that you just installed.  Here are OSS notes that are relevant to this issue : OSS Note 562436 and 877049.
We executed this report using these criteria to replace default English descriptions with the business content descriptions in Polish for our implementation:
Langauge Key "PL"
Do not Overwrite Texts turned OFF
It worked rapidly (150 CPU seconds) and flawlessly. I will say that the program looks for and changes the desription of EVERY object that it can find, and there is no control over changing just query elements or info objects. So step carefully. We plan on running this program in each system (after unlocking) so that we do not have to transport every single standard content object through our development / tests / production environment.
Once you are finished with this, you will, of course, need to use the translation tools to translate your custom objects. I've personally found the BI 7 translation tools to be much easier to work with than the earlier versions, but that may simply be a symptom of our upgrade process (we just upgraded to BI 7 from BW 3.5)

I clicked to install a new version after updating and clicking repair. But still the attachments won't open including invoices I have received today. It is all attachments not just pdfs.

    Then most likely it is not caused by Adobe Reader.

  • Can you install a new language on a 5800

    Are you able to install a new Language on your phone as the default.
    This is for a Nokia 5800.
    Currently I have English and Philipino and I would like to have English and Russian
     Can anyone help?

    Nokia does not provide a way for the customer to add languages to the phone. You can sometimes get languages added by a Nokia service point, but not all of them offer the service.

  • My IPhone 5 installed the new IOS 7 update but it will not install.   Why?

    My IPhone 5 installed the new IOS 7 update but it will not install.   Why?

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to download, install, and reactive their devices it right now. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

  • I just installed the new itunes software update and it completely whiped my computer and have lost all my files? can some one expalin to me what happened and how do i undo it?

    Can someone please help me! I installed the new itunes software onto my computer it shut down then when i tried to log back into my computer all of my documents and everything was gone! the only thing remaining was my recycle bin. but my documents etc are gone!
    I tried to uninstall the software but it still hasnt made a difference! Has anyone had the same issue and if so how do I fix it? I need all my documents back!!

    Installing an iTunes update does not remove your media or personal files.
    Are the files actually missing off the computer, if so, you have a serious computer issue... not a software update issue.
    Regardless, use the backup of your media and other important files to put everything back.  You do have a backup, correct?

  • Has anyone else had trouble installing the new Apple TV update?

    I have tried several time to install the new software for my Apple TV, but each time I am getting a message saying the intall was unsuccessful.  I have 2 and it installed on the older Apple TV (non-HD version) but the newer set will not install the update.

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
    If when you choose restore you get a message that the device cannot be found, download the file below
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (2nd generation)
    Then hold down the option key while choosing restore and select the downloaded file when prompted.
    If you have the Apple TV 3, use the following file.
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (3rd generation)

  • Create new or use existing info object ? How to decide ?

    All;
    I have this question.
    I enhanced the data source with a field user ID, now I am mapping it in the transfer rules in bw. When I searched in the system (ctrl F in infobjects of RSA1) I could find related info objects but they are currently being used in several places. 
    Can I use the existing one or do I have to create new info object ? How can I decide this ?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    it just depends on the content of the 0USERNAME or 0USER_NAME depending on use. Usually these Infoobjects contain the source system user name (login name) for example the entries maintained in SU01 of the SAP R3 system.
    If your extractor delivers the same entry, feel free to use it. If it is another kind of username (i.e. external system, database user etc.) it may be usefull to define a new object. But if you define your own ZUSERNAME Infoobject remember to provide loads for the Text and attribute fields (if required). This is for free, if you can use available infoobject which are already maintained by earlier projects.
    Kind regards,
    Jürgen

  • Just installed the new Brother printer updates through software update

    Now both of my printers say:
    "You need to install software to use this printer. To install the software, choose Software Update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer isn’t available in Software Update, contact the manufacturer of your printer."
    Tried rebooting and re-running software update. Everything is up to date but no change. Still no printing.

    Dinking around with it for an hour, I came up with another solution also. Go to System Preferences>Print & Scan click the Options & Supplies button, click the Driver tab at the top, and reselect the correct driver for the printer.
    It looks like the generic CUPS driver has been replaced by drivers called "Brother mmmmmm CUPS" where mmmmmm is the printer model, like MFC-7820N. Automatic software updates are not always automatic I guess.

  • Can't install any new apps or updates

    I can't get Apple Software Update to work, it says "Fatal error during installation". If I try an install Adobe Reader, it gets to the end, then says it was interrupted and cancels the install. Any idea how I can fix this?
    Thanks
    Joe Mac

    Have you tried deleting the apps in question? Tap and hold until they wiggle, then tap the X to delete. Next try re-downloading them, one at a time.

  • On installing the new ios7 software update I was unable to successfully update the iCloud part and ended up skipping it. Now from settings the iCloud page keeps freezing up

    How to complete the iCloud update process without it taking forever as it has been doing?

    try rebooting the ipad
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    then go back to settings/icloud and set up again
