Issue in maintaining hazardous material description in different language.

Hi All,
I have a requirement to display hazardoues material description in xyz langauge on a script.
Table MGEF is the primary table for hazardous material. There is no text table for it.
Field STOFT holds the description of the hazardous material.
Now issue is that as no text table is available for hazardoues material , how the description can be available into multiple langauges ? Also if the text is made available in XYZ langauge in this table on login to XYZ langauge ,then it must be also be displayed in english on login with 'EN' langauge .
Kindly help me in this regard. Also it will be great is someone can tell me how hazardoues material description is maintained in multiple langauages.
Regards,

Hi Ujjwal,
You need to maintain the region code "PT" in SPRO>LE>WM>Hazardous material>Master data-->Define region code.
Once done..relogin into system with "PT" language at login page of SAP.
Use VM01.. give material number and region code "PT"..it'll take you to next screen where you can maintain description in Portuguese.
Hope this will help.

Material Description in different language

Hi Expertsl
We have to show material description on the label. As of now the label description is displaying in English. Material description is also maintained in a language calledd 'Z1'.
So the present requirement is as below
1. If the material description exists in English language and Z1 language then the 'Z1 language' description is to be shown
2. If the material description exists in English language and not in Z1 languae then 'EN' language description is to be shown.
Please suggest on this with the code if available with you.

you either create a quickview by joining MARC and MAKT tables for this.
or much easier. you press F4 in a material number field.
then you go to search help W plant material.

Thx in advance,

For a single material code maintaining multiple text in the same language is not possible,
this contradicts the basic principle of consistancy.
Howevery you are free to do R&D, if sucessful please let me know.

How to integrate Material Descriptions with Custom Language codes

I am working on the materials integration - ECC to C4C.
The material descriptions have additional custom language codes (Z1, Z2, etc) to store additional descriptions.
1. How can we adjust our integration in C4C to take those additional descriptions ?
2. Specifically, can we even create custom language codes Z1, Z2, etc ?
3. Will the integration (mapping, idocs, webservices) need any adjustment for extra language values to pass along ?
Thanks ahead,
TC

Hi Tim,
in the integration ECC to C4C only ISO language codes are supported. Furthermore custom language codes cannot be created in C4C. In your case you have to store the additional information in the C4C material master using extension fields.

Sascha

Different descriptions in different languages

Hello,
Can somebody tell me whether is is possible to have a different description when a user uses a different langauage and if so, how to set this up?
What I mean is: We will be using PeopleSoft in 4 languages (English, dutch, french, german) and we want to have our values to have a description addapted to the language.
For example a user signing in as dutch should have the account descriptions in dutch, a user signing in in french should have his descriptions in french etc.
Kind Regards,
Stijn

If this is a delivered record where you have description stored, then it should have a related language record attached (look into record properties in application designer).
when creating these accounts, you should login into peoplesoft in different languages and change the description according to the language for the same account. This will populate the related language record (you can also do this by SQLs).
If this is a custom record, then you will need to attach a related language record to this and then populate it with right values following the same approach as above.
Once the related language record is populated with the right values, you should be able to see translated values when logged in with a language other than the base language(which in a normal installation is always kept as english)

Issues in Smartform when logging in two different languages

Hi Experts,
I have created a Smartform with orignal language as EN (English).
The Smartform is working fine when I login through EN language but when I login through EL (Greek)
I am facing problems.
The Smartform created in language EN does not get completely updated in EL.
Only the Form Interface,Global definitions are getting updated but the Text that I have created
does not get updated. The latest changes made in EN are not getting reflected when I login thorough EL.
I need to solve this problem at the earliest.
Please help me with this problem.

Faced the same problem. You just login in Greek (EL) and open the smartform in change mode. Now you will get a popup with 3 buttons in Greek, Please select the 2nd Button (i.e. Change Orig. Language). On clicking you will get a popup, there you have specify EL in the New original language and press continue button, again you will get 2/3 popup, just continue with that and now you just active it.. Thatu2019s all. Now will be able to see all your texts ...
Just do the same thing again in EN logon...Now your form will work in both EL and EN.
