Maintaining Material group in multiple language
Hi ,
We maintain Package Code for material in following config setting.
SPRO>Logistics General>Material Master>Setting for Key fields>Data relevant for sales and distribution --> Define material group.
My user wants this mat group to be maintained in Chinese Language as well as in English
Can anyone please suggest how to maintain this in multiple language
Regards,
Vijay BhatHi
In any customizing you see a translation option in GOTO menu. If you select it, it will prompt you a popup with available lanugages in your system. Choose for which all the languages you need to maintain, then maintain it. It can be transported as well. Master datas donot have this option.

SAP E COMMERCE FOR ERP : Maintaining catalog variants in multiple languages
Hi All,
I have created a product catalog with 2 variants, one for english and other for russian, have maintained the texts in corresponding langiages in the layout area.
I created a webshop and used the catalog variant for russian, but still when the end user( his correspondence lang is maintained as russian) logs in to b2b he sees the product descriptions only in english.
In the shopadmin , webshop properties -> General Information tab, there is a field called "Language". When i maintain this as "RU" the shop itself is not displayed to the end user.
Please let me know what is the procedure to display the products in multiple languages!!! I must be missing something.
Thanks for help!
LishaI've to ask you in an other way...
What you see when you call this link:
http://<server>:<port>/contextroot/b2b/init.do?language=ru
And what you see when you call:
http://<server>:<port>/contextroot/b2b/init.do?language=en
You say en is working, but what you see by the RU-link?? Any error or something?
I think your problem is this:
--> Now when I login to my B2B, then I am unable to see this russian shop, but the other shop that I maintained for "Language" as EN, I can see that shop.
You want to login and then want to see the 2 variants? But you've to call the apps only with http://<server>:<port>/contextroot/b2b/init.do?language=en or http://<server>:<port>/contextroot/b2b/init.do?language=ru
then it should work with 2 languages?
If it's not working, there is an error message?
The language RU is installed on your SAP?
I'm configurating this for you on my testsystem now. Please contact me at fan @ sfsservices.biz to receive the logindatas. -

Multiple language correspondence with customer
Ability to generate letters in multiple languages to inhance the communication between customer and the business. guide me how can we print letters in different languages.
Thanks
NIkHi Michael,
I should have told you that we are implementing SAP ESS/MSS business packages, so I guess there is no need to hardcode language content. I think I kind of understood your solution, but I am still trying to comprehend it fully. Please let me know if this could work.
Let's say the WebLogic portal launches the German quicklink - (/irj/portal/german). So this would try to open the portal in the default language which could be English. Let us say we have a hidden iView on the home page of SAP portal that sets the user's language to German. Would this display the SAP Portal in German language immediately as they are single-signed on from WebLogic. Or would it display in German only when the user clicks some other navigational menu after being logged on to SAP portal. If the problem is that the portal displays in the required language only for the subsequent clicks (i.e. after they log on), then maybe we can create a portal desktop to display home page in the correct language based on the portal URL alias using quicklink. Please let me know if this makes sense. -
Multiple currencies? Multiple languages?
hi,
Does SAP handle multiple currencies? Multiple languages? What is a currency factoring technique?
Thank you
Ashok kumarHI,
Yes.
SAP handles Multiple Currencies and Languages
see the table TCURR, TCURC for different currencies
Currency Factoring Technique:
Currencies in Planning
In Profit Center Accounting, three currencies can be stored at once:
Transaction Currency
The transaction currency is the currency used for a specific transaction. You can choose a different currency from the list of valid currencies for each new transaction. The transaction currency is stored in the transaction data for Profit Center Accounting as the so-called "first currency".
Local Currency (Company Code Currency)
The controlling area currency is stored in Profit Center Accounting as the second currency.
Profit Center Local Currency
You need to set a special currency for Profit Center Accounting in Customizing for each controlling area. This currency is used in the standard reports, among other things. You can find more information about this currency in Customizing. The profit center currency is the third currency updated in the transaction data.
How Do I Plan Currencies in Profit Center Accounting?
You first plan a profit center in USD. Then you later plan the same profit center in DEM in a second planning session. This may be necessary if:
the planned costs for the profit center in a certain cost element consist of external invoices in the local currency and external invoices from abroad and
the external invoice from abroad was billed and paid abroad
The currencies which can be planned manually are defined in the Layout.
If the corresponding key figures are defined and ready for input in the planning layout, you can plan in any permissible transaction currency, the company code currency or the profit center currency. The planned amount is then immediately and automatically translated into the other currencies. Note, however, that the system can only translate into a transaction currency if you have explicitly specified a transaction currency.
If you want to want to plan data using different transaction currencies, you need to use a planning layout that contains the characteristic "Transaction currency".
Note that data can only be saved in the transaction currency if a transaction currency has been specified. Otherwise the data will only be saved in the other currencies without the transaction currency.
If you want to want to summarize data in the transaction currency, you need to use a planning layout that does not contain the characteristic "Transaction currency". You can then:
change the summarized values, in which case the changes are not updated in the transaction currency, and
add any combinations of objects that have not already been planned.
If you
enter one transaction currency, the system only displays the amounts planned in that currency. You can
change these amounts
plan in the currency specified
enter a number sign (#) to represent the value " " (no value), the system only displays those values that were planned without the transaction currency. You can
change these amounts
plan amounts without a transaction currency
specify more than one currency or all currencies (*), the system displays all the planned values. You can
change these amounts
can plan as yet unplanned combinations of your planning objects in any valid currency.
Planned currency amounts are translated using
the value date you entered in the planner profile for your area
a translation factor entered in the currency table for the exchange rate type entered in the planner profile
You will find further information about the currency table and currency translation in the documentation FI Configuration and Organization.
Transfer Pricing Using the Conditions Technique
The term "transfer pricing" is used to describe the calculation of prices for internal exchanges of goods between profit centers. Conditions are the individual steps carried out during price calculation. When a goods movement takes place between two plants, the price can depend on a number of factors, such as the material involved, the sender plant, the profit center, the partner profit center, and so on. The information on these variable factors is stored as master data in the form of condition records. There the transfer price can be defined as a fixed price or a percentage increase or reduction.
This section describes the steps necessary to define transfer prices. You define these transfer prices in Customizing. There you will also find a detailed description of how to proceed.
Define condition tables, which you use to store condition records for each condition type.
Here you define the price dependencies for transfer prices. You can make the transfer price found dependent upon a combination of fields. For example, if you want your transfer prices to be defined for a combination of material and partner profit center, you need to define a condition table that contains these key fields. The condition records then contain the individual prices for each combination of material and profit center. You maintain the condition records when you define the individual condition types.
Define access sequences that the system should use to search for valid condition records.
An access sequence is a search strategy that the system uses to find valid data for certain condition tables. Each access sequence consists of one or more steps, which the system processes in the order specified. The order determines where the system should look first for a valid condition record. You can specify an access sequence for any condition type for which you create condition records.
Define condition types for all the pricing elements (fixed amounts, markups and markdowns) that occur in your daily business operations.
In Profit Center Accounting, a condition type represents a component of a transfer price. You can define condition types for every type of fixed price, markup or markdown that occurs in your internal goods movements. If you define a percentage markup or markdown as a condition type, you also need to define another condition type to serve as the basis for this percentage. This can be a price stored in the material ledger. The relationship between these two condition types is then defined in the pricing procedure.
In some condition types you need to specify an access sequence. In this way you determine which fields the system should use to search for a valid condition record.
Define condition records that determine the amount or percentage to be applied for each set of values in the condition table (such as "fixed price of USD 100.00 for material 01, profit center ABC, and plant 0001").
You can maintain condition records directly from within the definition of the condition type. Or you can define them from the application menu by choosing Master data ® Transfer prices ® Conditions. It is also possible to copy existing condition records to create new ones. This is especially useful if you want to change the currency of the condition record. You can maintain condition records either in Customizing or in the application menu, under Master data ® Transfer prices.
Define a pricing procedure to group together condition types and determine how they relate to one another.
In addition to the selection and order of condition types, a pricing procedure determines
which subtotals should be calculated
what base value the system should use for calculating percentage markups or markdowns
what conditions must be met in order for a certain condition type to be calculated
The base value for markups and markdowns can be either a fixed price or a value from the material ledger. Using a routine supplied in the standard R/3 System, you can have the system read the legal, group, or profit center price from the material ledger and calculate the markup or markdown on this basis.
Define condition exclusions, which let you determine which condition type should be used in a given situation.
In transfer pricing for goods movements, it often happens that a number of different condition records are valid. Using condition exclusions, you can compare conditions with one another and use, for example, the most favorable price for the partner profit center.
For different condition exclusion methods are available:
· The most favorable condition in an exclusion group
· The most favorable condition record for a condition type
· The most favorable condition among different exclusion groups
· Exclusion of those conditions in an exclusion group when a condition type that belongs to another exclusion group appears
Define transfer price variants, which let you specify which pricing procedures are relevant for actual data and which for plan data.
To valuate different datasets, such as plan and actual data, using different conditions, you can define variants with an assignment to a specific pricing procedure. The system processes the specified procedures in order until it finds a valid transfer price.
In transfer pricing for goods movements, only actual data is valuated (variant 000). However, you can also create additional variants if you want to calculate plan prices on the basis of pricing data.
Define pricing reports, which determine the structure of lists of conditions.
A pricing report lets you analyze condition records according to certain criteria and define the structure of these lists. You can define pricing reports either in Customizing for Profit Center Accounting or in the application menu, under Master data ® Transfer prices ® Pricing reports.

Hi Gurus,
In a query I am using the custom defined - Variable, Formula Variable & Formula, here variable are used for customer inputs. And when I am executing the query at English language I am getting the description for Variable, Formula Variables and Formula. But when I am executing the same query other than English language I am not getting the description for all of them and it was displaying the technical name of the Variables, due this problem end-user are not able to give the input values for query execution.
How I can maintain the multiple languages for Variable, Formula Variables and formulas.

Multiple Languages in Outlook mail for a workitem not working(Note 1230808)
All Gurus,
I am on ECC 6.0 with the below system details.
SAP_ABA 700 0015 SAPKA70015 Cross-Application Component
SAP_BASIS 700 0015 SAPKB70015 SAP Basis Component
PI_BASIS 2006_1_700 0005 SAPKIPYM05 Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) 2006_1_700
We have implemented Extended Notifications in our system and it has been working fine so far with a single language EN. Now, we got a new requirement to generate Outlook mails corresponding to a work item in multiple language (FR for French apart from EN). Towards this, I applied OSS Note 1230808, with all the pre-requisites taken care as mentioned in the Note in our Sandbox system. I found this note from following blog (Thanks to Mike Pokrara !!!)
[Re: Extended notification languages]
The FR text has been maintained for a standard task (Created by us only) as below:
1. Task Description in FR is maintained thru' PFTC txn, by choosing the FR option, and
2. Work item text for task is maintained thru' SE63.
Also, as mentioned in the OSS note, a value 'C' has been maintained for Parameter "WI_TASK_LANGUAGE" in SWNCONFIG.
Even after this implementation, when the emails are generated for an EN user, the Outlook mail is fine with all the text in EN, as expected. But, when the FR email is generated for a FR user, only the Workitem header text, the std. Header and Footer (maintained and picked up by std. SAP SO10 text) are translated into FR. But the Task Description part is still displaying in EN only.
Anybody had same / similar issue for this reqiurement ?. Can anybody tell me if anything is wrong in the way we are implementing or any limitaitons or known issues of this note / requirement ?
Your timely help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance & Best Regards,
venuAll,
It was a type from our side while implementing the manual corrections that were part of the OSS note 1230808. We found this with SAP's help and it's fixed now.
So, closing this thread.
Thanks to you all

CRM 2007 implementation in multiple languages
Hi,
We would like to implement SAP CRM 2007 Web UI and Interaction Center in multiple Asian languages like Chinese (Mandarin), Korean and Japenese.
Is there a standard approach or documentation in this regard?
How will Master data get translated?
Is it necessary to maintain customizing settings descriptions in each of these languages?
How to make UI help documentation available in these languages?
If any of you have worked in this kind of scenario, please help.
Helpful answers will certainly be rewarded.
Regards,
Paul PandianYou have to upgrade to Unicode if your systems are not unicode already.
You have to maintain all the descriptions and texts in the master data multiple languages. See the note on [Unicode Conversion Guide|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/551344]
If you have multi language already available in your R/3 or ECC system, then it is possible that your systems are in multiple code page.Unicode conversion from different code pages are different and you must watch for any restrictions. For example - Unicode conversion from HK Chinese using code page 8340. -

Subtitle, Multiple Language
Hello,
We're just starting to use DVDSP. It's really nice and professional. I'm recently working with subtitle tracks for multiple languages/dialects.
My question is: *how can I create a new or custom language name/label?* The dialect we're working on is not on the preset list (English, Tagalog....). To take it further, how do you make an actual SETTINGS MENU for subtitle language selections.
On our test DVD, I did not choose any preset labels so it only shows a generic "subtitle 1 of 2..." whenever I press 'subtitle' on the remote control.
It would be great to have a custom language option.
Thank you.Welcome to the Boards
Take a look here
[Stories Details|http://dvdstepbystep.com/stories_details.php] and [here|http://dvdstepbystep.com/audioset.php]
Take a look what I describe in [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3076884�] for more details also
which are a couple of approaches to setting up ways to play different subtitles (the audio on and off will also work using the same principles for switching between subtitle tracks.) -
Database storage of multiple languages for name of a single entity
Surely I'm not the first person to have this problem, but I can't find many resources on how to solve this. Just some background on what I'm working with, I'm running a web application using the Struts framework with jdk 1.4 on a Weblogic 8.1 server connected to an Oracle 9i database, I'm using DAO for my persistence layer, and I'm not opposed to using any 3rd party software to assist in this task.
For example, say I have a database of DVDs, My application will retrieve the list of DVDs from the database to display to the user. Depending on the user's Locale I want to display the title of the DVD in that language.
This is a simple example, but the real-world application is much more complicated. The application is highly configurable meaning that through a configuration application, my internal users can add DVDs at any time, edit the title of the DVD, or add a new language that they want the title to display in, etc. When a customer logs in to the application front-end they will be able to change the language they want the application to display in at any time, and the application will need to reflect that change. The display of constant text like field labels and page text is easy using Struts but its this configurable dynamic text thats a bit more difficult.
Its obvious to me that I will need to store the multiple languages in the database in some way, I'm thinking of either storage in some xml format, or a new table hanging off the "dvd" table with languages for each dvd. Either of these options would work for my purposes, but I don't want to go reinvent the wheel when this same problem has arleady been solved. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate itOne common way to handle this is to modify your key for the dvd title to include a locale identifier:
key dvdtitle
becomes
key locale dvdtitle
Now your db can hold multiple translations of the same dvd title.
