Loading Language translations for Catalogs using LSMW

I have hundreds of codes entered for a Catalog in English and I need to be able to load all the French translations for those codes. Doing a translation by hand is simple by just clicking on the Translation selection in the Menu. However, when I try to do that using LSMW recordings, it doesn't record a field that I can attach my source data to for the translation. So, basically, I can't get it to work. Is this even possible? Is there another way to load translations?

Hi,
1. Data has been captured as per the template
2. Instead of capturing catalog codes in English, keep those details in the Required language (in your case, its French).
3. Save the Excel file as Unicode Text instead of Tab delimited or other recommended formats.
4. Login into SAP as normal. Nothing specifically required from SAP side.
5. Do the normal LSMW technique to upload the data.

From the menu bar Goto->translation then it asks for from source language and target language, give them, then it you can modify the things.
After modifying logon to sap sytem in the language which you translated then they will appear in your translated language

Is sql as a language free for production use ?

is sql and pl/sql as a languages free for production use ?
and if you wanna help me , tell me about programming languages in general ?
thanks in advance

semsem wrote:
is sql and pl/sql as a languages free for production use ?The questions don't make sense. What is important is whether the database allows production use, not the language.
First, SQL is a standard. Every database vendor implements their own, slightly different, SQL dialect. Whether SQL is free depends on what database you're referring to and how that database is licensed. There are tons of open source databases (i.e. MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc) that support a dialect of SQL and can be used in production at no cost. If you are talking about Oracle, it depends on the edition of the database and the terms of the license. If you have the express edition (Oracle XE), you can use that database's SQL engine in production at no cost.
PL/SQL is Oracle's procedural extensions to SQL. As with SQL, though, what is important is how the database that implements the PL/SQL VM is licensed. That, in turn, depends on the edition of the database just like it does for SQL. If you have the express edition (Oracle XE), you can use that database's PL/SQL engine in production at no cost.
and if you wanna help me , tell me about programming languages in general ?Here, it's even less clear what you're asking.
Most languages are free to use. Many languages or deployment scenarios, however, require you to license something else in order to actually run code written in that language. You can, for example, write and use a .Net application free of charge. But since your application relies on the .Net libraries that come with Windows, you would need to license Windows on the machine you are running the application (or run a Linux box with Mono and hope that everything you need from the CLR has been ported). You can find free JVMs to run Java applications on most platforms. But if you want to run a Java stored procedure inside Oracle, you'd need to license Oracle. If you want to run a Java object on a JEE app server, you'll need a JEE app server (many of which require you to obtain a license for commercial deployments).

Hi,
To be honest I don't understand your question. When You execute LSMW and create project, then all steps are shown in a very clear way with good description. With which one you have problems?

Problem related to language translation in Smartforms using Text Module.

I have done translation of text module from English (enUS) to Spanish (esSP) using SE63. In text node I have used this translated text module. Language of the node is selected as sy-langu. So when I logged into System in English language I should be able to see the output in English but it giving output in Spnaish. While debugging sy-langu value is 'E'.

hi,
You have a text in english and you have maintained the translation in Spanish, mention the original text in the SmartForm. in this way when your login lang is EN you will see that text in Eng and if the lang is Spanish you will see the translation in the output.
Thanks.

Try it.

Different language translations for the same user ID

Hi all,
We have a custom program which is run as an overnight batch under a user ID that is specific to batch jobs.
The purpose of this batch job is to validate certain requests saved in a custom table and trigger e-mails to individual users who have raised the requests. These e-mails have to be either in EN or FR, according to the language that is maintained in user master of individual requestors. However all users receive e-mails in EN as the user ID that runs the overnight batch has EN. But our requirement is that each user should get email in his language.
Is there a possibility to explicity choose a language for each iteration of the program, before retrieving the translations so that each user gets e-mails in his language.

I am looking into the Experience Rules option; it looks like there are some options there, but nothing works after login.
After login the user is directed by the experience definition associated with user folder.
Any clues?

Help in BO WebI XI3.1 Input Control using language Translation

Hello All,
Need a help in BO WebI XI3.1 regarding Language Translation for Input Control.
Input Control has been defined in the Report.
The report is built in English language. The requirement here is to convert the report to French based on the Infoview Preferences.
Language pack has been installed and also used Translation Manager tool to convert the report variables.
All the fields including variables, column names, etc in the report has been changed to French. But the Input Control label could not be changed.
Please let me know if there is a solution/workaround for the label to be changed.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance..
Best Regards

Hi,
Thanks for your quick reply.
After the language locale in The Infoview Preferences the label is not getting changed.
Please let me know if there is any other solution since this is very critical requirement.

Load multiple Units of Measures using RMDATIND in LSMW

Hi All,
   I have created a conversion for materials using LSMW. I have used the standard direct input
   program    RMDATIND.
   Requirements have changed considerably over a period of time and now the new one is that I need to
   load multiple alternate units of measure for each material.
   The issue when using RMDATIND is that the structure BMMH6 for alternate units can hold only 1
   record at a time and my one single legacy source record has the information for two alternate units of
   measure.
   The LSMW that I created cannot handle this right now as it can load only one Unit of Measure as
   BMMH6 can hold only one record.
   Is this a limitation or is there a workaround/solution for this issue of mine in LSMW while using <br />
   RMDATIND.
   I will greatly appreciate any useful inputs in this regard.
Thanks,
Vamsee

for this use LSMW BAPI method
Business Object      BUS1001006   Standard material
Method               SAVEDATA                    Create and change ma
Message Type         MATMAS_BAPI                 Create and change ma
Basic Type           MATMAS_BAPI02               Create and Change Ma
in this method you habe below strctures...
E1BP_MARM       Units of Measure
E1BP_MARMX      Checkbox Structure for BAPI_MARM
