Translation of iview names

I loaded the business package 60.2 for SRM.
The original languages of the iviews is "EN", so I cannot change the names in navigation for the user role menues in language "DE".
Is there an easier way to change the names in standard Navigation than to do the whole translator thing?
thanks -hs

Do you successfully translate iviews or texts?

Can you please give more details on the same?

Portal Content Translation - Unable to see the changed iView name, desc etc

Hi Experts,
I am using Portal Content Translation to translate the name of iViews, roles, iview description etc from English to Spanish. I have followed the method mentioned in the below mentioned link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/74/641640b7b6dd5fe10000000a155106/frameset.htm
I have successfully executed all the processes mentioned in the document. It includes:
Creating Worklists and add content
Generate translation data
Release for translation
Search worklist and define source and target language
Load worklist for translation
Translate worklist
Make worklist as translated
Publish translation
I am able to publish the publish translation.
The above document says that "Publishing a translation means that the translated text strings are written back to the objects to which they belong (for example, the translated title of a role to the role object stored in the Portal Content Directory). "
In my case I have translated the name, description of an iView. After publishing am I supposed to see the name & description of iView in Spanish in the same iView (source iView).
I have not created any target iView. Am I supposed to create any target iView?
I am unable to see iView name, description in Spanish.
Can you please let me know what is going wrong?
Thanks
Stuart

Hi Stuart,
please set the user's language in UME. You can do this in the personalization dialog (see SAP Library section <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/f8/64e93b3a612d52e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm">Setting Portal Preferences</a>. Assign the portal role "eu_core_role" to your user if you do not see the "personalize" link in the portal masthead.
In what language does the iview name appear if you do not select Spanish language?
Please check if the name of the iView appears in Spanish language in PCD after you switched portal language to Spanish.
Best regards,
Martin

Hi Iqbal,
As Biroj pointed out, you should use the Portal Content Translation feature of Enterprise Portal for the translation of the name of PCD object. You can search on SDN regarding that. However following is the snapshot of the steps to be performed for the Portal Content Translation to resolve your issue.
Navigate to Content Administration->Portal Content Translation tab for translating the texts(names) of the PCD objects(iViews,pages,Worksets,roles,folders) etc.
In Portal Content Translation, follow following steps,which are pretty simple and straight forward :
1.Go to 'Translation worklist Coordination' ->Portal Content and right click your folder and Select New->Translation Worklist
2.This will create the Translation Worklist to which you can add your PCD objects for translation.
3. Go to your folder containing your iView, right click and 'Add Object to Translation Worklist'
4.After you have added all the object you want to translate, click 'Generate Translation Data' button at the top on the Translation Worklist screen.
5.Click the 'Release for Translation' button in the scrren that appears.
6.click Close in the screen that appears.
7. Go to 'Worklist Translation' link.
8.Search for your worklist you just created using the search box.
9.Select the worklist from the result list.
10.At the bottom of the screen select the Source Language and Target languages from the dropdowns
11.clieck 'Load for Translation'
12.Choose whiever texts you want to translate and enter the 'Translated Text' in the box for the target text.
13.After you are done with all the translations, click close.
14.Save All and Close
15.You'l go back to the previous screen again. There select your translation worklist and click 'Mark as Translated'
16.Go back to the 'Translation Worklist Coordination' link and open your translation worklist from your folder.
17.Click 'Publish Translation' button.

               name.set(2,newNameEs);
someone can help me??
thank you

Hi Ismael,
Can you try using a PCD Inspector to do the same.
The name of the iview is stored using the property com.sap.portal.pcm.Title. You need to change the name in this property. Remember to update the name with the right locale i.e. the locale which is set for the Portal.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/47/a4a442dc030e31e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
I am not too sure about the coding part.

Iview Name on the page title bar

Hi All,
For our ESS/MSS iviews, text specified on the service (IMG Configuration) used to appear on the Page title bar. We have recently upgraded our Portal and backend system and now instead of the text speacied on the service, iview name appears on the page title bar.
For example .. The iview name is Address and in the SPRO we created a service called "Address XYZ". On area page the service appears as "Address XYZ", but when we click on the link on the page title bar it shows "Address" instead of "Address XYZ"
Please let me know how change this.

There are too many levels of symbolic links to translate a path name.

Hi
I am copying from our TEST to DEV system, the command being this
cp -r /oracli2/oracle/testora/iAS .
However, the following messages were returned during the process
cp: java There are too many levels of symbolic links to translate a path name.
I checked and there indeed are many symbolic links.
I have checked ML for this and no luck.
Any one have an idea??
Thank you,

Told to tar the files, working on that now.
Edited by: Dan A on Sep 18, 2008 12:11 PM

Hussein what a marvelous suggestion.
That by using cp -RPI can avoid doing a tar ...
I am copying the applciation directories from TEST to DEV.
I have copied the iAS directory from TEST to DEV using the tar (appcldev user)
Now with the appdbdev user, I try to do the same and I get an error with tar:
tar: 0511-169 A directory checksum error on media
After checking for the solutions and fining nothing that could help me, I am now simpy copying using the cp -RP.
Now I have (i know this is a UNIX thing) on the target system:
iAS directory that was copied using tar (for appcldev user)
iAS directory where symbolic links were preserved (for appdbdev user)
Is this difference acceptable vis a vis cloning? Or should I go back to the appcldev user and recopy the iAS directory with the cp _RP option?
Thanks again.

IView name change

Hello,
I need to change the name of the link displaying under a menu.
If I select this link it will call Transactional Iview.
If I change the IView name does it change the link as well? I tried this but it's not working for me.
Please help me in this?
Thanks,
Sarada

Hi,
Changing an iview name does not affects anything, even though it is a transaction iview, you can very well change the name and still it will work fine as in transaction iview it asks you for an alias and the T-code, so this controls the link and not the iview name. When you did this, did you get any error? or what was the problem you faced?

Account for organizational unit - translation of BP names possible?

Hello,
we created accounts for BP-Role BUP004 - organizational unit.
We need to have different translations of the name of this BP depending on the login language.
e.g.:
german BP-name = Einsatzplanung Lagern
english BP-name = WFM stroage systems
Is there a way to maintain different names per language?
Kind regards
Manfred

Hi Manfred,
You can maintain multiple language version of the bp name & address using International address version.

Link iView Name to URL property in EP5 SP6

Hi All,
I am having a problem with the Link iView Name to URL property in EP5 SP6. In our portal all the iviews are having help links added to the title of the iview using the "Link iView Name to URL" property. The iview is a Standard.URLComponent which has a link to a webdynpro component. This url link works in EP5 SP4 environment but its not working in the EP5 SP6 environment. It works for all other iviews in both environments.
Can anybody tell me why this is happening or it does not work for an iview pointing to a webdynpro component?
Thanks in advance.

Translating a String (name value pair) to XML

Hi Guys,
I am trying to find an elegant way of translating a string containing name value pairs to XML within BPEL. The string looks as following:
name=Bob
dob = 28/09/1993
This string has to be transformed to XML. Any of the two cases:
either
<root>
     <name>Bob</name>
     <dob>28/09/1993</dob>
</root>
or
<root>
     <entry>
          <key>name</name>
          <value>BOB</value>
     </entry>
     <entry>
          <key>dob</name>
          <value>28/09/1993</value>
     </entry>
</root>
I am thinking of using embedded java for translation, but if there is any XPath function that can be used for that would be great. There is doTranslateFromNative but documentation is not descriptive enough and did not find anything on the web either.
Thanks!

Hi,
Use substring-before(line,'=') and substring-after(line,'=') on each line in the string in an assign activity. Separate lines also with substring-before using a newline.
Hope that helps.

WebDynpro Abap code to read IView Name

Hi Friends,
Could you please give me Webdynpro abap code to read the name of the Iview.
Regards,
Lakshmi Prasad.

Hello Lakshmi,
I dont think this is possible. If you want to differentiate from which iView your web dynpro application is launched, then you can pass some constant as Application Parameter in the iView. and in the web dynpro application you can read this parameter and perform your required logic.
For example suppose say your web dynpro application is hosted in iView1 and iView2. In both the iview properties, pass a parameter (say IVIEWNAMe) with values 'iView1' and iView2 respectively.
then in the Webdynpro -> Window Controllers' -> default event handler method, you read the parameter IVIEWNAME and based on the value you can peform your logic.

API for getting iView name, type, tCode

Hi
I am trying to figure out if there is a way in my program to get iView properties: the iView type (e.g. transaction, Web Dynpro, etc), then if it's a transaction iView to get the tCode for that iView.
I have seen document that tells me I can get the list of iViews in a given PCD location, and I think you can get the properties I mentioned above as such:
// id is the full path of the iView
public void getProperties(IPortalComponentRequest request , String id) throws Exception{
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, IPcdContext.PCD_INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY);
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, request.getUser());
env.put(Constants.REQUESTED_ASPECT, PcmConstants.ASPECT_SEMANTICS);
InitialContext iCtx = null;
try {
iCtx = new InitialContext(env);
IiView result = (IiView) iCtx.lookup(id);
result.getAttribute("????");
result.getAttribute("????");
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new Exception (e);
Am I in the right direction?
I don't know what are the names of those attributes I need? - I cannot find them in any Java docs or forum?
I also looked at com.sap.portal.pcm.attributes.IAttriView but that does not appear to have the suitable attributes that I am looking for?
Please help.
Kind regards,
Sharath
