Need info on language key

Problem Scenario :
There is a requirement to display the language key in the BW report.
It is known that only the text of the master data can be displayed in the language that is chosen at the time of login.
Please let me know if there is any way to bring the language Key along with the text in the reports.
Appreciate any pointers or suggestions.
Expected report output :
Country Key     Language Key     Description
IND     EN     India
US     EN     United States

Hi,
As you know the language key is stored in text table of infoobject and it is not available for reporting.
If you want to show the language key in the report then you will have to use the language infoobject as a navigation attribute of original infoobject, then only you will be able to use it explicitly in report.
Once you use this navigation attribute at the time of attribute data load of main infoobject you will have to do lookup in text table to populate the language key value, as it will not come from attribute data source from source system.
So in such cases make sure that first you load the text data and then attribute data.

  • Language key in info-package selection

    Hi,
    Just wondering on the language key selection in the info-package. This topic was raised a number of times in the forum and what i have found is no matter what you do 'Language Key' will not appear in the info-package selction as its a srevice API feature and BW will automatically assign the language key based on the installed languages.
    If i need to filter out on any particular language then i need to use some formula / routines etc (of course this is the last option).
    Is my understanding correct ? or Do we have some workarounds to make the language key available in the info-package ?
    Points will be assigned to value added answers.
    Thanks,
    Soumya

    Hi Soumya,
    Hope you would have checked these:
    1. Datasource for text is lang-dependent. If not make it lang-dependant.
    Also check:
    look in OSS Note 324684 'Selections for language and time-dependence'...
    "If a field of a DataSource - typically with field name 'LANGU' or 'SPRAS' - is assigned to InfoObject '0langu', the field is not provided in the selection fields although the field actually can be selected. In this case, all languages of the language vector active in the BW System are requested by the source system but the language selection cannot be defined in the Scheduler.
    Check for more details:

    Hi,
      Please see OSS note 1033537 .Even if langauge selection is available in infopackage it wont work .Tthe only way to restrict a particular language is in DTP or in transformation routine. Infopackage will extract all the language that is installed in BW system and you have to place your restriction in DTP or transformation.

  • Unit of measure with language Key

    Hello Guruz,
    WHile creationd of purchase order, there is a check kept which compares the vendor communication language which gets updated in the Po header - Communucation tab with Db table T006A which holds the Unit of measurements with Language Key and pops up an error message.
    It cheks the order unit in the PO, and the T006A whether the unit is maintained in the Language key as in the PO header - Communiction tab.
    But while creating a unit of measurement in CUNI, we dont have the option to maintain the language key for the UOM.
    In CUNI, it defaults the language key as EN in table T006A.
    I need a prompt support from you guys on this issue. Please suggest how to go about with this?
    Best Regards
    Greg.

    Hello,
    When i am trying to go for the language key in CUNI, it says that the said language is 'not available in server'. I guess it is checking whether the language patch is updated in the server.
    But it doesn't sound logical to maintain all the unit of measurements in all the vendor languages. Suppose if we are having vendors with 75 communication languages and we are having 50 units os measurements, so does that mean that we have to maintain units of measurements 75 X 50  times ?
    Kindly provide your inputs on the issue. We are facing lots of issues with this control kept in PO header checking for the T006A with the vendor communication language.
    Regards
    Greg

    Need info on windows xp pro purchase

    A Windows 8.1 Product Key will not work for a Windows XP install.
    Please do not read this sentence. Please ignore the previous sentence.
    Hi,
    We wont use the Win 8.1 Product Key - We will Purchase new Windows 8.1 License for the fourth PC but install our copy of Win XP on the machine (we have only 3 License that we used for the older 3 machines).
    Carey's reply only speaks to the technical aspects of installing a dual boot environment.  It says nothing about licensing which is what I think you are asking about.  I do not believe that you can purchase a Windows 8.1 License and apply it to a
    Windows XP install.  You need to enter in the Product Key when the OS is installed and I seriously doubt that the XP install will accept the 8.1 Key.  If you don't have a 4th key for XP you won't be able to have a legal copy installed.
    Please do not read this sentence. Please ignore the previous sentence.

  • Copying infoobject text into a second language key

    Hi all,
    I need to manage material text in both IT and EN language key. Some material codes are generated in ECC only in IT, some other in both languages.
    Since reporting is in any case required in english, I wish to set up something which is aimed to copy description created in IT into EN language key. This is aimed to avoid report displaying the code in all occurrences text in EN is not mainteined.
    Example:
    Material Code A100: text IT = Materiale A    text EN = Material A
    Material Code B100: text IT = Materiale B    text EN = not maintained
    in this case I wish to copy text Materiale B also into the language key EN.
    I remember there is a standard program to manage these situations in ECC HR and I was wondering if there is something similar in BI.
    Thanks to all

    I'm not talking about translating Infoobject decription.
    I need to have in both languages the text of an infoobject members.
    For istance, considering 0MATERIAL, I need to have in both languages all 1000 material codes managed in the company although in ECC they created description in english only for 600 codes and description in italian for all 1000 codes.

  • 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..

  • How to display language key (0LANGU) in the query for BW report

    Hi,
    Can someone tell me how to display language key (0LANGU) in the query? I want to display which language (English or French) is used for material description in BW report. Thx.

    hi,
    check if the infoobject is kept as lang dependent or not  for material text, else you need to create a masterdata attribute with text and lang keys and do corresponding mapping, so then it can be displayed in your report

  • Load Same Text data for all language key

    Hello Everyone,
    I have a datasource with Material and Desc fields but no language key.I need to load the same desc into my infoobject for all the languages i am maintaining (EN/DE/IT/FR/PL). Is this possible?
    Thanks,
    Ajay.D

    Hi Ajay,
    you can load same description for all the languages by maintaining constant language value at Transfer rules/ Transformations.
    but here you need to change the constant value for each language.
    Ex, if you are loading for EN, maintain language as Constant "EN".
    and then for DE, maintain language as Constant "DE".
    but this is repetitive process, if new materials are added then need to load again.
    Best Regards.

  • Add new language keys

    Guys,
    I need to add a new language key in CRM 5.0. In Transaction BP when we select languages, how do we add new languages to the list?
    Ani

    Individual languages cannot be added by a phone owner/user.
    A specific/select set/combination of languages is put on devices intended for specific regions/countries.
    This means that all possible combinations of languages that individual people might wish to see do not exist (such software packages, firmware, has not been created by Nokia).
    And the only proper way of getting whatever languages are available, is to buy a device intended for the region/country where those languages are available.

  • Error : Language Key is Initial

    Hi,
         I am facing problem with Vendor Master Text data loading. I am getting error in PSA called "Record 1 : ZCRM_VND : Data record 1('0000000001'): Language key is initial" for all records.
        I dont have any language key field in the source system, and I am not using language field in transfer structure. According to few forums they replied to uncheck the language dependent option in the info object properties. But I am not able to do any edit.
       Pls can one tell me wht would be the problem?
    Thanks
    Ganesh.

    Hi Chandran/Sam,
                               I am sure that we have Global Language text exist in source system, but there is not language field in standard data source 0vendor_text. If I restrict with EN in trasfer rule then that might be a problem if you have any other language text in source system.
                              I deleted the request in PSA but still I am not able to uncheck the 0Langu. And one more thing this 0Langu object is automatically reflecting in Transfer rules and I cant see it in transfer structure.
                              Please give me any other options
    Thanks
    Ganesh.
