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.

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.

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)

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

I created std project having all WBS element & maintain WBS Text ( description) in English lanuage.Now my client prefers that if a person in other country log into SAP in German language then he should see all description in German language.

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

Smartforms : Probelm with Text in different languages.

Hi,
In development server in client 500 and language EN i create some new text coping existing text and change the text. These text are visible in language DE using transaction smartforms.
I try to check the form in development server client 510 language EN. the changes are present but when i try to see the change in client 510 languare DE the changes doesnot exists. The New text contains the same text as the original text which was copied. both having the same text.
Can somebody help here.

Hi ,
Even without translations if you do the changes in Smartforms in DE language it will reflect in other client, check the smartform is activated properly in DEV client.
For translation for your info:
SE63-> Menu TRanslations->R3 enterprice->otherlongtexts->smart forms.
Give the name of the smartform and source and destination language.
Once you do the translation you need to activate the Smartform.
The above navgations deffres woith SAP version.

I tried sending a text in Korean, to a friend(iphone 3gs user). And all she recieved is gibberish. Anybody know how to fix this problem?
Perhaps the carrier does not support the encoding used by the iphone. The only thing you can possibly adjust is to put the OS language into Korean or English and see if it makes a difference. You can report the issue to Apple here:

Word ducuments in different languages/dictionaries to Pages - for Lion will need to transfer files to Pages, but how to handle texts in different languages?

As Lion does no longer support 'Rosetta" I will need to import my WORD files. I am using several languages (E, D, F, I) and would like to also write/check the texts before sending. I have not found any way to do this in Pages. Have I overlooked something? Thanks for guidance. Gottfried

I guess that you would get better results with libreOffice which is really designed to clone Office which is not the case for iWork.

Speaking text in different languages

I am using my Mac server to answer the phone and play answering machine. I like it to read messages to callers using the build in voices. However if I write massages in other languages but English even I would not know what it is saying and I doubt a native speaker would.
Does anybody know how to work around this or fix it? Besides, of course, from recording it, which I would like to avoid.
Thanks

Hello Change!
To do this, you need to buy and install voices for the languages you use. The best sources for these are Cepstral and Infovox iVox, available via Assistive Ware.
Then you can set the Speech pane to use the right voices and off you go. VisioVoice, from Assistive Ware, provides an excellent facility for changing voice (and therefore language) at the touch of a key.

How to text for Submit button in different languages.

Hi All
We have a requirement to add 'Submit Button' in iSupplier Portal's Standard Pages.
We have substituted the controller to add the Submit button and it works fine also .
Our Application has 7 different languages, so the requirement is to show the button Text w.r.t the
language only .
We have written the following code
OASubmitButtonBean oasb= (OASubmitButtonBean)oapagecontext.getWebBeanFactory().createWebBean(oapagecontext,"BUTTON_SUBMIT");
oasb.setID("IPOPrintReportButton");
oasb.setUINodeName("IPOPrintReportButton");
oasb.setEvent("IPOPrintReportButton");
oasb.setText("IPO Print Report Button");
//oasb.setTranslatableText("XXIPO","XXIPO_PRINT_REPORT_TXT");
pageButtonBarBean2.addIndexedChild(oasb);
when we have used setText method , we are getting the same name in every language. so we tried using setTranslatableText Method and gave it the Messages to set the Button Text. But Now button text is empty .
Pls tell us how to achieve this requirement of having text in different languages on the button ..w.r.t the environment language. we have also defined same Message 'XXIPO_PRINT_REPORT_TXT' for other languages.
