Translation -Selection texts in different language

Hi Experts,
I need to translate the selection text on my selection screen depending upon the logon language. Currently i am using the selection texts in english lang from the dictionary and i see that they are not getting translated into Spanish or German when i log accordingly into ES or DE language.
Can someone please help me with this.
Thanks
Dany

Go to T.Code SE63
Transalation -> Short Text -> ABAP -> Program Text
Enter the program name & select source & target language.
And do the changes.
For transporting the changes see SAP Note Number 669505 - Transport Requests for Translation.

Displaying text in different languages using smart forms

hi,
I am working on smartfroms.
I have to display the text in different languages using smartforms.
how to proceed ?
thanks,
Aruna.

To Display in Different Languages:
Smartforms:
In the Smartform you create:
In General Attributes, in Translate, select the radiobutton 'Into Selected Languages' and specify the lang for which you want the translation to be available.
To translate:
Go to SE63.
In menu, Translation -> ABAP Objects -> Other Long Texts.
In the Object Type Selection window that appears, expand FS ( Forms and Styles) and choose SSF (SAP SmartForms)
Specify your form name in Object Name and select the source and target lang and click on Edit button.
In the editor screen specify translated text in the lower half.
After you are done, click on Save Active button.
To view your form in the translated language, specify that language when you login.
SAPscripts:
Goto SE76.
Specify the script name, source and target language. Click on Create/Change button.
Specify all the translations. Click on release.
It will prompt you to translate window contents.
Double click on the window and translate the contents. When you are done, the Translation Status will become COMPLETED. Click on Release again.
(You can edit and check too)
Now when you preview by choosing the desired language, the translated script is displayed.
Hope this helps

Maintain text in different languages

Hi,
We have a multi country and multi language scenario.
Every time that we have to create something..like master data or any customizing object..in different languages..we have to log in to the system multiple no. of times to maintan text in different languages. Is there any way that in one login only we maintain different texts.
If we go to customizing, maintain functional area...go to utilities...> choose language.. what is its function?
Regards,
SAPFICO

Hi,
If we go to customizing, maintain functional area...go to utilities...> choose language.. what is its function?
This helps you maintain the text in different languages in configuration nodes by logging on in English for example you have to implement for China/France/Spain/Germany you can select the languages and you can maintain all the languages at the same time without having to logon in different languages. Not all the configuration nodes support this functionality for example FTXP the tax code maintainence.
Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks and Regards

Print PO item text in different language

Hi,
We have a global vendor whose communication language is maintained as PL in vendor master while our logon language is EN. The text therefore is maintained in PL language. It seems the output program only picks the text in logon language (EN) and so the PL text is ignored. Current the solution we can find is either ask user to logon with PL language when he needs to print the PO, or manually input EN as communication language when creating a PO. But I hope to find a better solution. I tried changing the the message output to be PL but doesn't help. Any idea?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Susan

Thanks DEV, to clarify, for this particular PO with PL vendor, only item text in PL language is maintained. It doesn't seem like SD, we can manually choose language and maintain texts in different language (I think I saw some notes saying this - one PO one language of text only).
Also both from other threads I saw and my test proves via maintaining communication condition record with other language doesn't work.
However from you second thread, I am curious about this saying :
If you want to print the PO in different language.
Then in Message determination IMG settings or NACE.
You can modify the output type NEU
here change the language from EN to your relevant language as per SAP.
If you want the both EN other language then copy the std NEU & create as per your requirement & mention the language in that new out put type.
rgds
gsc
I want to know how to change the language for a output type? I search the whole output type configuration but I didn't find anywhere to maintain language for a output type.
Thanks Susan
PS, so far I feel the first reply from Sharma makes sense, the only thing is not sure if SAP is supporting the idea of making change to routine (comprehension issue)

Translation Selection text

I have tried translating the selection text using Goto->Translation to desired language , the problem is how to transport it to different server ???

Hi Gm,
i faced a similar problem where it does not ask for the trasport request if you transalate the text.
but if you include the text file i mean the REPT object for your program in the TR then the translation will also be transaported.
you can do this by making a small change in the seletion text in the original language and activating it and it will ask for a tr and the REPT object wll be included.
thus solving your problem as all the transalation will be also added to TR.
please let me knoe if you have any doubts.

Translating Selection texts

Hi,
In one of my programs, I have defined a selection screen as follows
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK bl3 WITH FRAME TITLE text-bl3.
PARAMETERS :     P_MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR,
                 p_vKORG LIKE MVKE-VKORG,
                 P_VTWEG LIKE MVKE-VTWEG,
                 P_DATAB LIKE RV13A-DATAB,
                 P_DATBI LIKE RV13A-DATBI,
                 p_ZPLP1 RADIOBUTTON GROUP 1 DEFAULT 'X',
                 P_ZPLP2 RADIOBUTTON GROUP 1.
And in the selection text maintainence screen, I have checked the option 'Dictionary Ref' for the first four parameters.
My concern is : The selection texts do not get translated to any logon language other than English.
Do we have to maitain translation even for Dictionary referenced texts?
Thank you,
Pradeep.

Hi Bhavani.
Check the [SAP Document for translation|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm32/helpdata/EN/41/71601b3ab0f34a8e00aa01338c68f3/content.htm]

How to create the request for change of selection text into other language.

Hi,
In my object requirement is that when login through Japanese language, then on selection screen selection text should appear in Japanese language. For that I have maintained the text in Japanese language the program where we define the selection text there from translation I have maintained the text in Japanese but while maintain the text it didn't ask me for REQUEST, because of that I am not able to transport the changes to next system, so I want know how to create the request for this case.
Thanks

Hello Chetan,
You could goto the selection screen texts by goto-> selection texts,
Then you could again goto -> Translation
or
Other-> Translation(Not sure )
Then double click on the Program you should be able to see the Texts that need translation, now change something save and come back and try to activate, now it should propose for a new Transport Request.
Either create a new transaport request or give one that you have given for the program.
Hope the issue is resolved.

Translate your website into different languages

Well,
i wanted to have my website available in different languages.
(Eg. mandarin, french, japanese, german...).
I heard that there is coding sample available on the internet that show you a sample of how to code out the translating tool, to be used. Or did anyone of you here knows the way?
Axile

Hi Robert,
I have property files Inter.properties,Inter_en.properties in WEB-INF/classes .
In web.xml :
<context-param>
<param-name>
javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.fmt.LocalizationContext
</param-name>
<param-value>
Inter
</param-value>
</context-param>
Test.jsp:
<%@ taglib prefix="fmt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt" %>
<fmt:setBundle basename="Inter" var="Inter" scope="session"/>
When I try to execute the jsp file I receive the following message:
type Exception report
message Internal Server Error
description The server encountered an internal error (Internal Server Error) that prevented it from fulfilling this request.
exception
javax.servlet.ServletException: An error occurred while evaluating custom action attribute "bundle" with value "Inter": Attempt to convert String "Inter" to type "javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.fmt.LocalizationContext", but there is no PropertyEditor for that type
What is wrong with my settings?
I think that in web.xml :
<param-value>
Inter
</param-value>
is the problem.
Thanks
Daniel
the proper way is to use tags for this. proceeding:
get you a copy of the JSTL (jsp standard template
library).
define a property file for each language like you do
for any resource bundle, e.g. text.properties,
text_en.properties, text_en_US.properties etc. and put
it to your java class files in the web application
(i.e. WEB-INF/classes or
WEB-INF/lib/your_archive.jar).
define an initialization parameter in web.xml with
param-name
"javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.fmt.localizationContext" and
param-value that points to the properties file
(without the extension)
then use the tag lib in your jsp's and use tag
"message" to return the message texts. you should set
the current user's or session's Locale. this is an
example include file that you should statically
include in every jsp:<%@ taglib
uri="/WEB-INF/c.tld" prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/fmt.tld" prefix="fmt" %>
<c:if test="${ ( ! empty user ) && ( ! empty
user.locale ) }">
<fmt:setLocale value="${ user.locale }"/>
</c:if>this snippet assumes there is typically
a bean "user" in the session, which has a property
"locale" that returns a java.util.Locale.

Upload positions-text in different languages?

Hi folks,
we have to enter positions in different languages. To enter new positions we use a flexible upload - method. We have got one upload-file for EN and another one for DE.
The problem:
if we upload the EN-file, the text of the positions in DE gets blank,
if we upload the DE-file then, the text of the positions in EN is blank.
So one of the fields (either DE or EN) is empty and would have to be entered manually.
What can we do to upload both DE and EN - text for the positions?
Is this possible at all?
Thanks for your help,
Thomas

Hello folks,
it´s possible to upload different languages!
It´s easy if you know how to do it:
create an upload-method with (at least)
Positionplan and language in the header
Position-nr and text (short, medium, long if you want) in the body
--> NO further information (hierarchy, type or whatsoever)!
Create a file with information above
Import the file
--> if positions are available the new language will be filled in
--> if you accidently address a new position you will get an upload error (as no hierarchy-info is available).
Hope this will help others as well,
Thomas Kejik :-)
PS: special thanks to Tanja Ritter who provided this trick.

Ashok Sangal

Hi Ashok
Activate business function OPS_PS_CL1
Multi language support has to be activated fro the Object ML(IMG-->Project system-->activate multi language support)
when you create a new PS object , a new tab short text appears, in which you can maintain different language keys and description
so when ever user logs in different language then the description of PS object will appear in that language if it is maintained in short text tab
