Uploading translations into SE63 from file

Hi,
We want to translate a large application that we have built.  We made a spreadsheet of all of the text elements used and a translator has provided us with a translation.
I am now faced with the biggest cut and paste exercise in history as I cannot find anywhere in SE63 where you can <b>upload</b> a file of translations.
I have tried creating an LSMW/ BDC, but as the translation screens are not standard Dynpro screens, it will not work.
Is there any way of uploading translations?
We have the following objects to translate:
OTR Texts
Data Dictionary object texts
Messages
and more....
Please help!
Tristan

I know this is well past it's sell by date, but if anyone is looking for a quick and dirty way of doing this.. This is how I did it.
As Tristan says, the translation screens are not standard Dynpro screens so cannot be used, but the screens accessed through the edit menu are .
I'm translating enUS to zhCN so I have these set as my defaults in Settings in SE63.
Create 2 LSMWs.
First one is a reset LSMW.
It uses the Edit > Delete Target Text > All Lines
Then Edit > Copy Source Text > All Lines.
This clears and then populates all translation fields for that object (abap screen in this case) with the fields enUS text.
The second LSMW then uses the Edit > Find and Replace in Target Text
This searches for the usEN text string in the destination, and replaces it with the zhCN text.
My original version had one search and replace cycle (i.e. one text translation per recording)
Because of the search time for the object, I’ve since re-created the recording with 10 search and replace cycles per recording.
If more translations are required, you could have 2 or 3 lines with the same OBJECT ID .
The issues I can see are:
Performance - the search for the object is SLOW on our system.
If there are different translations for the same string within the same screen (which I think is unlikely).
If one enUS string is a subset of another. It would replace it in both occurrences. Then when the second string was searched for, some of it would already be in Chinese, and it wouldn’t get a match on the enUS string. The order of replace doesn’t matter to this LSMW, so if they were sorted by enUS length descending, this issue could be avoided.
In a similar way, if your translated text somehow matches your enUS input text for another text field. (Didn't happen for me - translating to a Chinese character set)
Your users default translation languages have to be set in SE63 settings before you start.
Hope this helps...

  • Sender Idoc needs to be translated into 4 text files

    Hi,
    Could you please guide me how can i achieve this.
    Within XI this Idoc message needs to be translated into 4 text files:
    Could you pls. confirm as...can i use MultiMapping or shall i go for BPM?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Y.Raj.

    Should also work in your case:
    1. Create your mapping program that will map the information from the source file
    into the destination idoc. This has to be a 1:N split. Just make sure that the destination message type and message interface are are of occurrence N.
    2. Also, you will have 2 destination interfaces and 2 interface mapping, one for the IDOC and one for the mail.
    Now, there are a few essential steps in your configuration,
    1. In the receiver determination, specify the 2 receiver systems, one for your IDOC and the other for your MAIL.
    2. Now, you will have a condition window. Just type the condition on the basis of which the receiver has to be determined for the mail and the idoc business system. Just remember that the condition can be specified only for the source message.
    3. In the Interface Determination, you have an option called RB CLASSIC and RB SPLIT. To do a 1:N split, you will have to do a RB_SPLIT.
    You can even use xslt mapping to split source message type into multiple target messages types.for more information on the same check this link:

  • Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
    For compilations that aren't, select all tracks, Get Info, and on the option tab set Part of a Compilation to No. If it already says No tick the box alongside, then click OK.
    For deeper problems see Grouping tracks into albums.

  • Preview Won't Insert Pages Into .PDF from File

    Preview - Edit - Insert - Page from File doesn't work since upgrading to Yosemite.  Dragging and dropping the .pdf pages from one Preview window to the document in another Preview windows does not work either.  It appears that the command is executed (dragging and dropping shows the green circle with the white plus when I drop) but nothing happens.
    In the end I just need to add four .pdf pages from one document to an existing .pdf document.  This function worked fine and I became accustomed to easily adding/deleting/organizing pages in .pdf documents using Preview with Mavericks.  I have restarted and shut down the computer multiple times including opening and closing preview and the documents I'm using.  Any thoughts? 

    Works for me.
    Open a PDF File
    Navigate to where want a page inserted.
    Go to Edit ===> Insert ===> From Scanner or Page from File or Blank Page
    Preview will insert page below the page.
    It is not as good a tool as some other software for fiddling with PDFs but it works.

  • Can't upload photos into iphoto from memory card

    Hi there
    I have been using iphoto for a while now and have never had any problems before. Today I have tried to upload some photos from my memory card (inserted directly into my macbook).
    Iphoto reads the card (all pics come up in iphoto) but the "import selected" and "import all" boxes are greyed out.
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks....

    Open the memory card on the Desktkop and drag the folder containing the photos to the Desktop.  From there see if you can import them into iPhoto.

  • Upload photos into Galleries from a PC?

    Hi All,
    I use a PC (don't start; required by my employer) and I want to transfer pictures into the Photos app on the iPad. Problem is that even though I have the pictures in separate directories on the PC they get loaded into a single gallery on the iPad. I know if you have a Mac and have created galleries in iPhoto they will transfer over but does anyone know a way to get photos into separate galleries on the iPad from Windows? Any way to even manually create galleries on the iPad and manually move the pictures into them?
    Thanks.

    The largest iCloud account is only 55GB, not 100.  Also, iCloud is designed for syncing data.  It is not for general file storage.  While you could add the photos to a shared stream (http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99) and they would stay in iCloud indefinitely, they would likely be at a lower resolution than the originals (3.1-3.5 megapixels).
    Instead of using iCloud, use a different cloud-based service that is desiged for this (DropBox, Flikr, Smugmug, etc.).  Some are listed here on Roger Wilmut's site: http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/missing/inicloud3.html.

  • How to Upload Flash into iWeb from Quick Time?

    Hi,
    I have created a flash logo in Keynote and have exported it to QuickTime. Not quite sure what to do now as to how I go about getting it into iWeb on the page.
    I copied Roddy's code and placed it in an html snippet on my site and it just shows up as a quicktime player.
    I am publishing to an external server. Do I need to upload the flash/quicktime file to my media folder on my server?
    Any help please?
    Thanks

    If you created it with Keynote '09 there is no option to export a .swf as there was in '08.
    I think the illustration I referred you to is a QT in an iFrame because Keynote '08 can't export the 3D transition as flash. I guess that's why they dropped it in '09.
    The settings are:
    Effect: Color Planes
    Duration: 3 seconds
    Direction: Left to Right
    Start transition: Automatically
    Delay: 2 seconds
    Too many people on the dark side don't have QuickTime. I do all my music as flash now and have started to use FAExporter for iPhoto to display images

  • Update Hierarchy from file flat

    Hi,
    We have transferred the hierarchy of infoobjet 0IM_REPOBJ  from OLPT, and a new hierarchy is created in SAP BW.
    Now we want to add new characteristic (node)  to this hierarchy, from upload file flat.
    I have followed all steps of documentation from sdn but I can't do it.
    After that, I think that from uploading file flat, only is possible created a new hierarchy or update a hierarchy created before for this way.
    It's correct or exist any way for update by uploading file flat, of a hierarchy downloaded from OLPT?,
    Best Regard,
    Mario.

    Hi Abhishek,
    When I try to upload the new characteristic from file flat, the follow error appear:
    RSAR 204: Error when you calculate the node level in ahierarchy.
    There is two sap notes, but it not apply for our case.
    When I create the infopackage of datasource from file, in tab "Hierarchy Selection" I can't select the herarchies available from OLPT, I have to create a new hierarchy. Although I create a new hierarchy with the same technical name of OLPT hierarchy, the system assign a new internal ID.
    And I think that, when I execute the infopackage from file flat, try calculate the node level in the new hierarchy created and not of the hierarchy existing in a infoobject.
    For this reason I guess that it isn't possible update by file flat of  a hierarchy downloaded from OLPT.
    Regarding your proposal of download the OLPT hierarchy, update it and upload to BW from file flat (deleting the existing hierarchy). I think that would be the more aproximate option, but we'll have to analyze the process, because the hierarchy will be updated both from OLPT as file flat.
    Have I to assume that my guesses are right?.
    Best Regard,
    Mario.

  • How to upload Sales Orders into B1 from an excel file?

    Hi,

    Hello ZAP.
    I do not have such code, but i this link /people/janos.nagy/blog/2010/01/25/exporting--importing-authorization-using-ms-excel-in-sap-b1 you can find an excel example about authorization, and using Single Sign On (SAP B1 must have run with excel)
    The method is similar, you can run any DI API operation from excel.
    Here is an example to add a sales order
    Dim oDoc As SAPbobsCOM.Documents = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oOrders)
            oDoc.CardCode = CUSTOMER_CODE
            oDoc.DocDate = Today
            oDoc.DocDueDate = Today
            oDoc.Lines.SetCurrentLine(0)
            oDoc.Lines.ItemCode = ITEMCODE
            oDoc.Lines.Quantity = QTY
            oDoc.Lines.UnitPrice = PRICE
            If oDoc.Add <> 0 Then
                MsgBox("Error " + oCompany.GetLastErrorDescription())
            Else
                MsgBox("SAles order added")

When I upload photos from my old lightroom 3 program they come into photoshop at 14% zoom percentage which is what I want them to come in at so I can zoom them in to detail the skin. What might have changed settings wise between the 2 programs, I cannot figure it out.

  • How can i upload more than one single file into a folder in the creative cloud?

    how can i upload e.g. 10 files out of a folder on my desktop in one step into a folder in my creative cloud?

    You can select multiple files in the Windows Explorer dialog using the Ctrl key, or in Mac OS X Finder using the Cmd key. Once you have multiple files selected just click the upload button. Or use drag and drop from the desktop to the browser.
    If you are using Internet Explorer it does not support multiple file upload. This is per design by Microsoft.

    I can't upload or import videos from my iphoto library, into final cut pro x.  When i click, IMPORT MEDIA in FCP, It lists 'iPhoto Library' as GRAY, and will not let me select it.  I need the videos out of there.  I have tried every way I can think of.
    I have also tried from the iphoto side, to export the videos or share them to final cut.  I have had no luck.
    I have tried to drag and drop indidual video clips from iphoto to fcp, and the programs simply do not respond to each other
    I can see in the OLDER version of final cut pro x, where it has IMPORT FILES as an option, it was possible.  I see this on forums and youtube videos of the older versions.
    However, the newer version that i have, does not have IMPORT 'FILES' as an option, it is simply all lumped together as IMPORT 'MEDIA'
    Thank You for the Help

    at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?

  • Wiki file attachments - can the wiki be configured to link to a file already on the server rather than uploading it into the page?

    Can the wiki be configured to link to a file already on the server rather than uploading it into the page? This would enable users to open (and edit) the original server hosted document rather than downloading a static copy that can't be edited and synced back into the wiki page.
    As a workaround I've tried attaching an alias to a file but it doesn't work - the wiki instead uploads the aliased file.
    From what I can work out, the default wiki behaviour is to upload a document to a wiki page, which creates a copy of the uploaded document in the wiki database. This copy has no connection to the original document. It can be downloaded and edited, but the edits are not saved back into the wiki hosted version of the document.
    I'd like to be able to upload a link or alias to a document (with preview please!) already on the server. A user could then preview the document or click to open and edit it.
    The only way I can do this at the moment is to create a link "afp://123.../doc.rtf" to the original. This is timeconsuming and confusing for non-technical users and doesn't offer the benefits of the attach function (ie document preview).
    Is there any way the wiki can be configured to link to documents already on the server using the attach functionality?

    An update for anyone in a similar situation.
    Patch 3944727 for 9.0.4.1 that solves this issue: "USER LOV IASM11SHIP EDIT USER LOV SHOULD SHOW THE NICKNAME ATTRIBUTE." However, the patch is mutually exclusive with the latest CPU's and there's no plan to merge the pacthes given the dwindling support for 9.0.4.1. So that patch is pretty much worthless.
    I've been told that this patch is included in newer portal versions, so the real solution is an upgrade.
