Portal Language settings

Hello Gurus ,
I am faced with a problem where in German Users using SAP portal to acces applications in English Language - which is attainable by setting the Portal Browser settings to English as default .
Now it is here I am faced with issue - german users do not want their browser to show english as default for other than SAP Portal access . That would mean they still look for the google search in german and general surfing in German Language .
any suggestions . Do let me know if you require more inputs .
Regards
Sandeep

How to pass the portal language with the URL

Dear experts,
We are trying to call the SAP Enterprise Portal (Online Catalogue) from SAP ERP (ECC6) with an URL that looks somehting like this:
http://xxx.com/irj/portal?j_user=xx&j_password=xx
This works fine, however we would like to add the language as a parameter, something like &language=IT but this doesn't work. I've tried multiple paramaters but none of them brought any success.
The only half-valuable parameter we found is ume.logon.locale which is only considered on the logon screen, though.
Does anybody know which parameter I need to use? Does the SAP Enterprise Portal accept language settings comming from the URL?
Thanks a lot & regards,
Pascal Thalmann

Hi Abdul and Ayyapparaj,
Thanks a lot for your quick answers but unfortunatelly nothing helped.
@Abdul: I am aware of this risk, but thanks for the hint. The paramter sap-langage was already known but did not bring the desired results - it seems not be accepted.
@Ayyapparay: I had already visited the link you mentined in your reply. The list seems to be related to Web Dynpro Applications which does apply to my problem. Furthermore, the parameters I am using at the moment (j_user & j_password) are not documented.
Any other ideas?
Thanks a lot and regards,
Pascal Thalmann

OS language settings break CVI code

I'm developing software that requires support for chinese language, I've followed the instructions to change this settings for LabVIEW 8.6 (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/91A1863834F4B1A0862575670067D15C) and TestStand 4.1 (http://forums.ni.com/t5/NI-TestStand/Operator-interface-Chinese-language-support/m-p/375100) but I haven't been able to find information on how to do this in CVI 8.5.
When I enable the support for characters in Chinese on my XP machine and I open the CVI files they are shown like this:
What do I need to do to get this working?
Thanks!

CLA - CTA

Hi Nick,
I created a simplified function in my driver just to show how it breaks, I'm attaching the source code and a VI I'm using to test this.
My machine settings are initially in English so I can compile the code. Within the attached project I created a function called tktds8k_SetDataStartNIExample function that runs regardless of wheter you have an instrument or not. Within this function all I'm doing in sending a command using:
sprintf(buffer,"DATATARt %d",0);
Using the _tktds8k ExampleNI.vi VI I run the function and take look at what is sent with NISpy, and this is what I see:
Then I change the language settings to Chinese and run the same VI and this is what I see:
In production test run I get errors along the lines of passing toom any arguments to a function.
Regarding the CVI editor, I was under the impression that Idea Exchange was a feature request portal and to me this is a very serious defect in the software... there no guarantee the IDE will work in a multibyte environment for which we are buying dozens of licenses as part of the NI Developer Suite. Would you agree with this?

ESS/MSS Language settings or locale

Hi ,
I Have few Queries related to language settings.
I have set the default language as en_gb (english united kingdom )of the user in user administration .
When i login to the portal the default language in en_gb.
Now if the user chnage the browser language to De- DE german,then the page is not getting translated.How ever the translation is available if i dont set the default language in User administration.
can you which setting will get the more precedence.
Thanks,
nachy

Hi ,
I have checked it seems the language we assign in user administration is taking the precedance.
I have assigned the language in user administration for the user
(eg:user21).But if the user(eg:user21) wants to check the portal with
the german language.the user changes in internet explorer to German.But
the portal page is always en_gb.
We wanted to have default language for all users as en_gb and if they
chnage the language in internet explorer it should be translated to the
language selected(considered translation available for the selected
language).
Kindly suggest if there is some option for this.
Thanks,'
Nachy

[BO XI 3.0] - Strange behavior regarding language settings

Hello,
I found strange behavior BOE in infoview portal. We have Desktop intelligence documents published in repository and when we open report (first time) in infoview we have right format for date and numbers e.g. dd.mm.yyyy, 123.123,00.
When we close this report and open once again the format is en-US e.g. mm/dd/yyyy 123,123.00 and this is wrong. We log out and log in and open this report but no change.
If we restart services in cmc (deski services) then the first time is report ok and when we open again this report the same error.
SW:
Windows server 2003 sp2 - english (regional settings - slovenian)
BOE premium ( BO XI R 3.0 => the same problem in BO XI 3.1)
CMS database => Oracle 10gR2 (nsl lang SLOVENIAN_SLOVENIA.EE8MSWIN1250)
Language settings in infoview we check => use browser locale and slovenian
Thank you for reply!
In BOE R2 works fine...
Regards,
Gregor

Hi Gregor,
Try the following option.
Find the file i8ln.xml in the location
"<install directory of BO>\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\scripts\"
Take a backup of the file and make the follwing changes.
Find the following code in the file
activate_languages>
<state value="0"/>
<State value="0" cs_lang="Bulgarian"/>
<State value="0" orig_lang="" cible_lang="Bulgarian"/>*
<State value="0"/>
</activate_languages>
Replace it with:
<activate_languages>
<state value="0"/>
<State value="1" cs_lang="English (Australian)"/>
<State value="1" orig_lang="" cible_lang="English (Australian)"/>*
<State value="1"/>
</activate_languages>
Save the file.
Restart your Desktop Intelligence servers. It might take a bit of time to pick up the changes.
Note: If you start Deski after this change, and go to "Tools > Options", you will see a disabled language button with "English(....)" written on it.

Anisa

Restricting Portal Languages

Hello,
we would like to use only german and english as portal languages. Furthermore we have some users from ldap that don't have a language attribute. The users are from countries like finland and the browsers settings determine a finish portal. But we would like them to see an english portal.
We tried the language setting for logon page but browser language is still taken.
Does anyone have an idea how this can be solved ?
Kind Regards
Joachim Bertram

Hi,
Check this to know, where to find locale_list_service:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b2/77284a96264e9183161b7e8718dfa8/frameset.htm
Note 624929 still applies for EP 7.0, so this way you limit languages user can select in his profile.
But this still does not solve your problem, when the browser languages is different from german and english.
Check this how the Lookup of Resource Bundle happens:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/42/938297a5061d69e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
The only way to restrict that your portal shows only german and english is by having these languages set in user profiles. If not you will have to remove the Resource bundle properties files for other languages in all portal applications, which is really cumbersome.
So my advice is to apply Note 624929 and removes all languages except german and english, set german and english in all user profiles.

Default language settings in SAP Integration Kit?

Hi everybody,
I've the following problem:
If I create a report with the SAP Integration Kit (create new report from a query) I get a prompt where I can type in (System Number, User, Password and LANGUAGE). If I now choose as language u201CEnglishu201D and create a report, save it and open it in crystal again, everything is still fine. But if I go to refresh the report, I get a prompt where I can choose the SAP BW and type in the System Number, User and Password but not the LANGUAGE. After the refresh the names of the fields are still in English but the data is now in German (or just the technical names, depends on the language settings in the query).
For me it looks like that the language settings of the refresh are by default in crystal is set to German, but the software is English. I didnu2019t find any way to change the default language to English or save it in the report.
I already tried to change the language/regional/keyboard settings of my machine and also tried to change the language in the crystal formula field u201Clanguagecode%u201D.
But even if I could have a unique change in some system settings, it really will not help me, because I have some queries in German and some in English, depending on the actual BW system.
If the SAP Integration Kit gives me the possibility to choose the language during the creation of the report it should then remember the choice!?
Thank you for your help

Issue with language settings and units

Hello All,
We are facing the issue where since yetsreday days our language sttings are not working anymore.
The characteristics which were loading fine before suddenly started giving error and now there are lot of issue with the special characters.
Since we have data in almost all the european languages and with the entries from there language specific keyboard therefore list of chars now cannot be maintained in the RSKC.
We did a lot of verification and there was no changes done and no transport related to language settings was done.
The settings maintained before was ALL_CAPITAL and it was working fine till yesterday.
We have raised an OSS message with SAP but still wanted to know if anyone is aware of the reason.
Thanks
Ajeet

Language Settings

I’m wondering how I can change the default language settings on my Macbook (10.4.7), to Canadian English; it’s spelt “colour,” “Jail,” “Centre” and “Center” (no typo).
I need this done, because my essays have to be in Canadian English. So far the best I can do is British English. I have it semi adjusted in iWork, but not in my system preferences.

Nobody
there were able to show me how to set the input
language to Portuguese to get the characters: á ó í ã
ã ç
That doesn't say anything good about their expertise.
To select any input language on a Mac you go to System Preferences/International/Input Menu, check the box for the keyboard you want, plus the box for "show input menu in Finder," and then go to the "flag" menu at the top right of the Finder and select the language you want, and then type. To see which key does what, you activate Keyboard Viewer just like you activate a keyboard.
You can also type the characters you need directly from the US layout. Here is a chart of the key combos:

Change country or language settings - iTunes match

I've subscribed for iTunes match and now I'd like to change my country or language settings from Germany to Holland. If I need to unsubscribe iTunes match then how do I do it. I could not find any option to unsubscribe iTunes match in Itunes.

Your best route is to call Apple direct, explain what you are trying to do and work with the pointers they provide.
To unsubscribe, you would need to go into your current account, de-select options for automatic renewal. De-authorise your computers and sign out of iTunes - but it is worth assessing with Apple whether this will achieve what you need.
The rule to watch is the one that requires 90 days to elapse before you can use your computer with another Apple Id - it may be that there is no neat route around this deliberate service restriction that Apple have designed in - other than the obvious, to use a second computer (or an emulator on your current computer).

Regional and Language Settings for Window and BEX Style

Hi All,
When I change the Regional and Language Settings for Windows, Standards and Formats value to English (USA) the standard Style for BEX is active. For instance, input-ready cell is bordered with blue. But when I switch to Turkish this style is not active.
Additionally, I have to change Style for each Workbook one by one. How can we adopt a style to every workbook.
Regards,

Lars,
This is a setting on the 'Defaults' tab in the User Profile. This can be set when a new user is set-up in SU01, or it can be changed by each user according to personal preference in SU3. I'm sure there is a system table where these settings are stored that could probably be edited for all users, if that is desired, but I don't know which table that would be off the top of my head.
Hope this helps...
Bob

Can I change OS language / language settings?

Am vacationing in Spain, and I am considering picking up an iPad from the local Apple Store. The question is, will this be hard-fixed to run in Spanish, or will I be able to switch it to English language settings when I initialize it, or when I sync it with my iTunes. I currently own an iPhone 4, if that makes any difference whatsoever...?
Anyone?

Excellent, thanks
Will try asking them, but since I don't speak any Spanish myself, and finding English speaking staff is equally challenging, I figured I'd ask in this forum instead
Appreciated.
