Spanish display incorrect after unicode conversion

Dear Experts,
Currently we upgrade our SAP system from 4.6B NU to ECC6.0 UN.
in 4.6B system we had implemented Simple Chinese and French language package to the system. after upgrade to ECC6.0 no-unicode system. we perform a MDMP unicode conversion.currently system running with ECC6.0 unicode interface with language 1EFD. SUMG releated tasks had been finished. Chinese and French language checked OK in ECC6 UN system.
Our issue is. in the past time. some Spanish local end user typing some spanish character in some master date field when they login in 4.6B GUI choice english as login language.these kind of spanish characters could not display correct in current unicode environment.
could you please given us some suggestion for how to fix this issue.

Hello Anil,
Below items we checked between MDMP 46B and Unicode ECC6 with production client table SKAT. some Spanish display not correct.

Spanish display incorrect after unicode conversion

Hello,
I doubt that the data shown by you in the link was caused by Spanish users logged on in EN.
I think this was rather caused by utf-8 data uploaded into the Non-Unicode system.
In this case, you need to repair the according texts manually, I do not know any automatic repair.

Chinese Version no displayed properly after Unicode Conversion

Hi,
Recently at a customer site we converted our SAP ERP ECC6 to unicode from non-unicode. After that we have applied chinese ( ZH ) language pack.
But the thing is there are still texts which are being displayed in English or German. such as when we go to MM03, the tabs MRP1, MRP2 and MRP3 are being displayed in english only when I login with ZH language. But when I login with DE, the tabs MRP1, MRP2 and MRP3 are being shown in German.
Also another thing is that all numeric data is being displayed with enmglish characters i,e, ( 1,2,3,...) where I expected them to be displayed in Chinese ( ZH ).
Please share any informationyou are having in this matter.
Regards,
Mandar.

Hi Mandir,
Unicode conversion is not meaning of when you login different language and the text and numbers will be displayed in the login language.
Unicode system having only one code page which can be showed the text and number in exact input format and would not show any junk characters.
In the SAP 4.7 version if you login in the Chinesh language and maintain a material description in same language and
Then if you again login in English language that description will be showed as junk characters(some other symbols).
Whereas in unicode system ECC6 if you maintain the material description in Chinesh and then login in English language you can able to see the material description in exact format.
If I get more information I provide that also.

ABAP list in Thai lang. is display properly after Unicode Conversion

Recently at a customer site we converted our SAP ERP ECC6 to unicode from non-unicode, Whenever there is some vowel in thai font at the beginning of the line , position of the line will shift right.
1. | ุทรปราการ | aa | >> abap list result
2. | ุทรปราการ | aa | >> print result
We have done as what SAP Note 947514 recommend but the issue is still not fixed.
Please share any information you are having in this matter.

Hi,
Pl follow the below steps,
1. If you print via access methods U/S and use SAPlpd, replace SAPlpd with SAPSprint (note 894444).
2. If you print via access methods 'F', switch to access method 'G'.
3. Download device type THSWINU that is attached to this note.
4. Import the device type using report RSTXSCRP and assign it to package SPOO.
5. Assign the device type to your output devices that formerly used THSAPWIN.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

After unicode conversion Variant missing

Dear All,
After unicode conversion in transaction S_ALR_87013611 and
S_ALR_87013613 variant is missing.
We checked in table VARIT - "Variant Texts" data is missing.
Kindly suggest.
Thanks and regards,
Joseph

Hello
Did you discover the reason for this? We are now facing the same issue and we cannot find the reason.
I don't think that note 987914 can be the answer.
Can it be something connected to the procedure for conversion or caused by a wrong-executed step?
Every suggestion can help,
Thanks

EURO sign not displayed correctly after unicode migration

All,
Don't know where exactly to post this, in BI forum or Netweaver Platform.
But here is my question:
We have migrated our SAP BW 3.5 (NW04, SP20) system from codepage 1100 (using general fallback codepage 1160) to unicode UTF-8. After the conversion graphic reports (using internet explorer) do not show the euro sign correctly in the unicode system. In stead of the euro sign a # is shown in the internet explorer window. When looking at the source of the same web page however the euro sign is showed correctly.
When looking at the encoding of the web page it is mentioned that utf-8 is used...
Any ideas...?
Thanks,
Regards, Bart

Hi Manoj,
It is with displaying of graphical data that the error occurs. Text data (tables) on the same web page are shown normally, with the correct euro sign.
When I look at the source of the web page it looks that for the graphic a java script is being called:
/sap/bw/Mime/BEx/JavaScript/JSBW_C_Std.js
Withing the coding I see the euro sign normally, however in the graphical display this is converted to #.
I have run the suggested query. The database nls_characterset is set to UTF8.
Thanks,
Regards,
Bart

U00C9 becomes u00C3 after unicode conversion

Hi all,
After the unicode conversion in ECC 6.0 server, when we download a file from SAP to unix, the character É becomes Ã in the file,
1 When cat the file, it shows as
1. cat testzzz
TRÃSOR
2. When more the same file, it displays a different character # more testzzz
TRM-CM-^ISOR
3. When we download the same file to our PC and open it in the notepad it looks ok.
TRÉSOR
4. In the SAP also this displays correctly as below
TRÉSOR
So when I was checking the locale parameter at unix level, I could see that its "C".
1. locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=
From my understanding "C" doesn't support unicode, so we tried "univ.utf8" & fi_FI.utf8 for LC_CTYPE but no luck.
Did anyone faced this problem earlier.
Our OS HPUX 11.31 - IA64
Thanks & Regards
Senthil

Hi Senthil,
what terminal software are you using. I use putty and when I switch my terminal window translation settings to UTF-8, I get the correct text. Therefore I assume that your problem is your terminal emulation.

Error with PS text after Unicode conversion

Hi, we are having problem after doing unicode conversion with special
character not displayed correctly in a Web interface. In SAP
(transaction CN04) everything is OK, but if the PS text is displayed
through a Web interface (BSP for instance) some characters are
displayed wrong. One of these characters is the apostrophe in French
language ('). Is there an available tool to perform a conversion of
existing PS text after performing unicode upgrade ?

Some menus are not readable after unicode conversion

Hello Experts,
We have converted an MDMP system to unicode and when we log on to it using SAP GUI 7.10 some elements are displayed incorrectly (garbled):
- Tool Bar
- syb-menues
- selection screen texts
- table content in SE16
On PC all supplemental languages are installed, all I18n settings per SAP notes have been done but still - no success (Alt+F12, etc).
What else can be wrong?
Seems like a frontend issue, because downloading table content from SE16 to a local file and then opening it in IE using ISO encoding - works fine. I also noticed that when saving the file SAP says "
using code page 1160"
Shouldn't it be using code page 4110 - which should be autimatically assigned to SAP Gui when connected to a Unicode SAP system?

We had a likewise problem after our migration (under 4.7) and we could solve it by deleting the language load.

Wrong text in ADRC and LFA1 table after Unicode conversion

Hello,
We are doing MDMP to Unicode on SAP 4.7 system.
In post unicode activities,we had corrected the garbage characters in
table ADRC
by converting to target langauage ZH using SUMG t-code.
Condition used for addind table ADRC in SUMG is LANGU ='1' and
LANGU_CREA = 'EN'
But after converting and saving the data,most of the records have
incorrect character in word.
and text field of search term/company name/city in table LFA1 are also
wrong in correspond field in table ADRC.
Thanks
Harshavardhan

Hi Harshavardhan,
Assumption: You have Chinese entries in table ADRC with ADRC-LANGU_CREA = EN
Now you have to distinguish two problems:
1) Chinese texts are stored in ADRC fields, which are NOT used for search help texts (most of the fields - e.g. ADRC-NAME1):
These texts can be handled in two ways:
a) Change LANGU_CREA = EN to LANGU_CREA = ZH for these entries (e.g. where ADRC-COUNTRY = CN) before the Unicode conversion (by the way, I would not use ADRC-LANGU, since this is the communication language, which does not necessarily comply with the code page of the entry).
This needs to be done in a similar way as shown in z-reports described in SAP Note 634839 ( although this specific fool-the-system case is not covered there - you have to adapt those examples)
b) Use SUMG to repair the entries using language ZH (as you already did)
My favourite would be a), as this can be done before the conversion (Note that SUMG ineeds to be executed during downtime !)
2) Chinese texts are stored in ADRC fields, which are used for search help texts (e.g. ADRC-MC_NAME1):
a) If these entries were inserted / changed with logon language ZH, then point 1) applies
b) If users logged on with logon language EN and created the entries, then most of these texts are destroyed already in Non-Unicode system. Then there is no automatic repair possible (at least point 1 does not work). Here my statement from before is valid:
Those entries need to be generated again - e.g. if you do a dummy change on the name.
According to my knowledge, this is a manual effort (either before or after the conversion) - but maybe it can be automized ...

SRM can not open attachment after unicode conversion

Hi,
Our system is SRM4.0, last week we do a unicode conversion project.
After we convert to unicode, some attachment in SC and PO can not be openned, these attachment file name include some chinese. If the attachment file name is all English, no problem to open it.
I think it is the cause by unicode conversion, do you have any idea what is the root of this problem?
Thanks.

Hi,
Please check in table :BBP_PDATT
If you have created a shopping cart with attachment. The attachment will be in the above table

Alignment all out after unicode conversion

The system is now unicode compliant.
The purchase order, invoice that has Chinese text as line item are all printed out of alignment.
It had pushed the next field towards the right.
I understand it is becuase of the unicode character / bytes difference.
Can someone shared with me how can I modified the sapscript to get it back in alignment?
Please provide a sample.
Thanks
bye

Hi,
I have read the thread before. It doesn't help in my case.
To share it with you,
I realised that I can place a length field after the field.
Previously I could use &EKPO-TZX01(40)&. Now I had to remove it to &EKPO-TZX01&.
it works for some but not all sapscripts.
For those that doesn't work, I will have to changed it as well as setting the tab using a separate paragraph.
So much to change after this unicode conversion.
Thanks

SAP Data File size considerably reduced after Unicode Conversion

Hello Experts
I have just performed a CUUC (Upgrade along with unicode conversion) from R/3 4.7 to ECC 6.0 EHP5. The data size that i earlier had was close to 463 GB (MSSQL MDF, LDF Files), after the data export to be converted to unicode the size was 45 GB (10% of actual data size, i feel this is normal after heterogeneous system copy), but after the import again the DATA file size is only 247 GB, is this normal ? or have i lost some data ? For ex, I tried checking tables like MSEG and the number of entries have reduced from 15,678,790 to 15,290,545.
Could you kindly let me know if there is a way to check from Basis perspective if i have not lost any data ? I have followed all the procedures as per SAP Standards.
Waiting for your quick reply.
Best Regards
Pritish

Hi Nicholas
Data is compressed during the new R3load procedure is understood, but why number of table entries have reduced is something which is still a question to me (in some cases increased as well) ? For example
                             Source          Target
STPO                  415,725          412,150
STKO                 126,710          126,141
PLAF                 74,671                   78,336
MDKP                 193,487          192,747
MDPB                 55,329                   63,557
Any suggestions or ideas ?
