Handling multiple languages in SAPscripts and Smartforms

Former Member — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 19:09:38 GMT

A lot of our output documents need to be printed in different languages. For e.g. a Sales Invoice would have to be in English, German and French and currently with Sapscripts we create separate output types and separate sapscripts for each one of them but they all share the same driver program.

Is this the easiest way to do this? Can it be made simpler using Smartforms perhaps using standard texts or text elements?

build ur smartforms using text modules and include texts, create a single form and just provide translations to text modules through SE63 and u'll get multi language output using a single form itself.

Can this same thing not be done using Sapscripts? i.e. using text includes or text elements in sapscripts

yes same scripts can be maintained in multi languages by making use of include texts and maintaining translations for these texts.

check this tcode

SE63

goto Translation->long texts->Sapscript and translate it.
