Otr-texts and country-specific

Hi,
can someone explain how the context section for the OTR-texts works ??  I have my OTR-texts in english and the application has been rolled out to more countries in english. Now, some funny guys don´t want the texts as they are, but as they need it.
OTR-Text: ZACC_FORECAST
Text: Forecast bonus relevant           "<-- UK
People in NL want that text like "Forecast objectives"
I know there´s the option in the context for specifying a country, which I already did but the main question is now how do I call the OTR-text from my code ??  using the portal logon language I see no text.
Thanks.

Hello,
thanks but this does not have something to do with the translation. We´re using english in Holland for the BSP application but as I explained, UK wants something and NL wants something else.
Unfortunately I found no documentation neither in SDN nor in the online help nor in internet for field Country in section context of SOTR_EDIT.

  • Group and country specific acc in operating coa

    hi,
    the same chart of account is shared among countries in the same region. there are 3 kind of gl account, example for sales account : 50000000-51999999, I50000000-I51999999 and L50000000-L51999999. they in the same coa but different acc group.
    also no assignment done in ob13 and ob62.
    i will assume I for group and L for local but both of them not in group coa and country specific coa but in the operating coa.
    1) may i know what is the difference for this as compared to account sitting in individual coa (group and country specific)
    2) what benefit of this kind of coa design as compared to different coa ( group and country specific)
    3) as all are sitting in operating coa, if i want to post to, say, L50001000, if different coa, then i will post to 50001000 then in the assignment will have the corresponding L50001000 account. this L50001000 will be posted automatically.
    but now all are sitting in the same coa, does it mean we need to define in the transaction explicitly when doing the posting? 
    thanks

  • How can I display Account description text from country-specific CoA ?

    The below quote is from the description of Country Chart of Accounts in OBY6.
    "The essential programs in General Ledger can output either the unique worldwide number or the country-specific number and the corresponding text."
    I am not able to figure out how to configure reports so that the country-specific number and corresponding text is displayed in programs. When I run reports such as FBL3N, the program is picking up information from the global CoA. Please help!

    Hi
    To view the GL line item in Country Chart Account, Run Report S_ALR_87012332. In selection field choose alternate account in outout control.
    System will give the Detail as per Country Chart of Account.
    Thanks

  • Group and country specific COAs

    Hi All,
    Can anyone explain me the place where to create and assignment of country specific and group chart of accounts.
    And also explain the place where to assign the respective chart of account's GL account numbers.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    1. Country Specific and Group chart of accounts should be created in T Code OB13
    Path: IMG/FA/GLA/GL Accounts/Master Data/Preparations/Edit COA List
    2. Country Specific chart of Account should be assigned in T Code OB62
    Path: IMG/FA/GLA/GL Accounts/Master Data/Preparations/Edit COA List
    3. Group chart of accounts should be assigned in T Code OB13 (Separate field is available in OB13)
    GL Account Number:
    1. Group Chart of Account's GL Account Number should be given in the respective GL Accounts Master Data (Type/Description tab)
    2. Country Specific Chart of Account's GL Account number should be given in the respective GL Account's Master data (Control Data tab. Field name: Alternative account no.)
    Hope it helps

  • What is Concept in OTR texts and how does it work?

    Hi,
    Can someone explain me how does concepts in OTR texts work?
    I have a problem with one of BSP Applications where I'm using a OTR text. I think the problem is with this concept.
    Thanks,
    Chaith.

    hi chaitanya,
    By using  OTR texts, you have the advantage that your BSP application will be language-independent. All the texts defined in the OTR are displayed at runtime in the logon language. If the texts are not yet available in the logon language, they are displayed in the system language. The OTR texts that you create are automatically translated or are forwarded to the translation transaction (SE63) and are entered in the translator’s worklist
    To create an OTR long text from your BSP application, you do not have to go explicitly into the OTR. Proceed as follows:
    In the page editor select the texts relevant for translation, using the <OTR>... </OTR> tag.
    When you generate your BSP, all these text fragments are passed from the system to the OTR. The concept returned by the OTR is generated in the relevant place on your page and serves as the unique identifier for your text.
    Continue as normal creating your BSP application.
    U can go through following link u will get more idea on how to use OTR.

  • Report on country specific CoA

    Hi All,
    When trying to pull the report from S_ALR_87012282 for country specific Chart of Accounts, we are getting the following error:
    "Company codes and charts of accounts entered are incompatible"
    Here are the steps we did:
    1. Assigned operational and country specific chart of account to ABCD at OBY6.
    2. Created 2 accounts in operational chart of accounts. XXXXXXX & YYYYYYY
    3. Created 2 accoutns in country specific chart of accoutns.XXX & YYY
    4. Assigned XXX as alternative account to XXXXXXX and YYY to YYYYYYY
    5. Posted a document using these accounts in F-02.
    6. Ran a report to display the details w.r.t country specific CoA (S_ALR_87012282)
    Here is when I got the error.
    Can anyone please let me know what I am missing here..
    All answers will be duly rewarded.
    Thanks,
    N

    Hello
    I am not sure if I understood your question right, but this is what I presume.
    Yes, when you post to XXX a/c, the data is transferred to XXXXXX also.
    There is no special validation, but enter XXXXXX in the master data of XXX a/c in the field ' Alternative account' in the control data.
    Assuming the country specific chart of accounts would be using a seperate FSV, execute the report to check if the balance is transferred in the currency you desired.
    Compare both financial statements, Assume you have seperate FSV for operative coa / country coa.

  • Best practice with otr texts in wd

    hi,
    when I enhance a wd component I want to work with otr texts and I have two questions:
    1. Is the best way to store the otr texts in a separate new package or in the still existing package of the enhanced wd component?
    2. Makes it sense to fetch even the static texts in the abap coding (not the ui elements) like message manager from the otr or is it then overacting?
    thanks

    Hi,
    Answer to your questions.
    1. Is the best way to store the otr texts in a separate new package or in the still existing package of the enhanced wd component?
    A. You can create OTR texts any where as long as the transport goes along with the webdynpro component. Its always good to have the OTR in the same package. Its more like the text element concept in ABAP.
    2. Makes it sense to fetch even the static texts in the abap coding (not the ui elements) like message manager from the otr or is it then overacting?
    A. Its a good habit to fetch all the static text from OTR. this helps in several ways.
       a) If the message is used n number of times then you just have to change the text in OTR and it reflects all
       b) If the message needs to be displayed in a different language then just the OTR needs to be maintained for the alias in a different language.

  • Country specific to 99

    Dear Experts,
    Kindly let me know the possibilities to use some country version for other countries for which SAP localization not released
    Since there is no SAP country specific version for Oman, is it possible to  call Saudi specific schema and country specific feature  from Other country versions (99)
    Please provide your suggestions
    Regards,
    R.Rajesh

    Hi Rajesh,
    i thing your talking about payroll.. If you don't have country specific payroll for Oman then you have to go for the international payroll. For this you need to use 99 as the country grouping ( molga). And use the international payroll schema X000.
    you need to incorporate all your statutory deduction or payments via  writing PCR. you should not copy the feature or schema for other country version because all this schema and feature will read the value from it's own specific country group tables. For an example if you copy the schema for Saudi, it will read the saudi country group payroll related tables.
    But if you still wanted to make a copy , then you copy and make it to customer feature or schema and ask your ABAP er to change the structure of schema or feature to read the value according to your country group 99.
    Regards,
    Dinesh.

  • Mass OTR texts translation

    Hi all.
    I need to translate a lot of OTR texts. First I uploaded a file with the aliases, original OTR texts and all the translations to internal table. I tried to use batch input for transaction se63 (translations), but it doesn't work. Please suggest any other ways for mass OTR texts translation.
    TIA,
    regards, Nikolai.

    Hi NIk,
    Hi,
    Trasaction for the OTR is SOTR_EDIT .
    following steps:
    1: Go to Transaction SOTR_EDIT
    2: Put the Alias name and display
    3: Go to Change menu (Edit>Context>Change)
    4:Do not choose anything in the popup. Just Hit Enter.
    5: You will be in change mode. Now select the language (e.g. DE)
    6: Blank out the Length field. Enter the text in Text field.
    The length will come automatically. (Or you can also specify the max value here).
    7: Now Press Save button. The text has been saved.
    8: Now select other language from dropdown
    (E.g. EL Greek) and change the Text and blank out the Length field
    (you can also specify Max length here as per your choice)
    And press Save. In similar way,
    you can just create the OTR for Multilanguageu2019s.
    9: At last save and come out. Enter another Alias and repeat the procedure.
    Hope this will Help You
    Thanks

    The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in

    You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider

    This may be a basic question... but in InDesign, how does one determine the pixel size of a text box? Specifically, we need to write text to specifications of 600 pixel width, and have no idea a) how to scale a text box to specific pixel width, b) how to determine what word count we can fit in, and c) how to do it in a table? Thanks!

    Set your ruler increments to pixels Preferences>Units & Increments. You can fill the text box with placeholder text Type>Fill with Placeholder text and get a word count from the Info panel with Show Options turned on from the flyout.
    From the Transform panel you can set a text box's width and height

  • Change to OTR Text in Title changes UI look and feel

    We are running:
    ECC 6 EhP3

    LSO 603
    We were asked to change the title of
    Package:  LSO_FRONTEND
    Alias: LSO_FRONTEND/ACTIVITIES
    When I tried to change it in the OTR it allowed the change but removed the tray around the title in the portal screen. 
    We do not have the most current version of R3trans Transport Program.  The version we use is Release 700 May 3, 2009.
    What is the process to correct the loss of the UI elements?
