Material description - different language

Dear Experts,
We have material with both English and Spanish descriptions. When I create purchase order in English log on or Russian log on, system is picking the description based on the vendor language. It sounds like logical that purchase order is recieved by vendor and hence its picking the vendor language.
But is there any way that material description should refer the log on language and not the vendor language.
Regards,
R.S

Hi,

Please help.

Delete material description

how to delete material description and language exclude language EN.

Sitting here and reading your crisp question (after I've locked your even more crisper question), it's very difficult to suggest you to do anything.
Firstly, we need to know why you need to delete the Material Description from a standard transaction. If this is a Business requirement, only your Business know why this is needed - Im sure you have no clue about it either.
Secondly, we need to know if this is a requirement that has been handed down to you by your Functional Consultant, or if it's a figment of your own imagination.
Thirdly, we want to know why your Functional Consultant (if any) has not suggested you a suitable suggestion, especially when a "fresher" abap is behind the controls.
Fourthly, please tell us why you are not ready to contact SAP and seek their advice.

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 Sales Order based on Ship to Party Language

As we know that Material Description coming in Sales Order is based on the Language setup in Sold to Party. Is there any way I can get the Material description based on the Language setup in Ship to Party?
If not in Sales Order then anyway I can get the Material description based on the Language setup in Ship to Party in "Delivery" or do I have to use the user exit to do so?

Hey,
Why u r bother about translation of language description in sales order from ship to party n all.
c u can even take language description from sold to party, as u wanted from Ship to party. for this u just have to maintain language in alternate data tab in CMR.
Thanks

Language of material description in Outbound Delivery

Hi,
I have created an STO for a new Greek customer Plant and the communication language in the customer master data for this plant was set to Greek.
As consequence, my Outbound Deliveries from an Italian Plant have been created with a Material Description in Greek...In the meantime, I changed the communication language in the customer master data to english to have the description in english for any new outbound delivery created...
I deleted the deliveries with wrong language and tried to re-create them after this language change but the problem is still the same (material description in Greek).
So, it seems that the customer language taken into account is the one that was assigned to the customer at the time the STO was created...The language change will only solve my future documents (STO) so I am looking for a way to correct my deliveries already created as I can not cancel my STO...
Thanks,
KAK

Hi,
Thanks for reply. But I dont think this works. In another instance of SAP where this functionality is working, I have checked the Item usage and its not CHSP. It is V and batch split is happening.
Still, I will try once and let u know if this works.

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.

Rafi

Material description for different language

Hi SAP Gurus,
Please advise how to pull material description maintained in different language ?
I need to download this material descriptions maintained in all languages for a certain type of materials of one plant.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Manoj

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.
there you erase the language from the selection pop-up and execute
in the hitlist do a right mouse click and you can directly download

How to populate the Language Key description is not available

Hi,
Question: How to populate the Language Key description is not available in the Customer text table
The problem is ;
Customer no : 0012345
For this Customer no description is maintained only in EN, JA ,FR from R3 side.
EN : HP International Ltd
JP:HP の国際的な株式会社
FR: Ltd International de HP
There is no value for Language ES.
BW side:
User is login into language Key ES and executing the report based on this Customer no. There is no Customer text value maintained in language Key ES. It should populate the text value empty. BW system - Language ES is installed.
I have a Reporting requirement is - I need to populate the text value for this customer No: HP International Ltd when the user login to language Key ES and execute his reports.
/BI0/TCUSTOMER Customer text table I am able to see the description for the EN, JP, FR text values.
EN: HP International Ltd
JP: HP の国際的な株式会社
FR: Ltd International de HP
If the Customer text is not available in the text table of customer for language key ES - I have to populate the any one of the existing customer text values into the language key ES - example
0012345 ES HP International Ltd
Simplest solution if we maintained ES customer description in R/3 should be ok.
Is their any other logic which I can implement in BW.

Hi,
If you are opting to load Customer Text, there are two options:
1. R/3 maintained.
2. Generic Extraction using Flat Files.
Hope it helps..
Regards,
GPK.
