Hello

Try this snippet:


DATA: par_name(60).
DATA: par_user_wert(60).
DATA: g_default_language type sylangu.

par_name         = 'zcsa/system_language'.
CALL 'C_SAPGPARAM' ID 'NAME'  FIELD par_name
                   ID 'VALUE' FIELD par_user_wert.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
  g_default_language = par_user_wert.
ENDIF.
WRITE: 'Default language is', g_default_language.

Hello

But why you do not want to use this FM ?

I distrust that exist others FMs, but if they exist it have use below logic:


par_name         = 'zcsa/system_language'.
CALL 'C_SAPGPARAM' ID 'NAME'  FIELD par_name
                   ID 'VALUE' FIELD par_user_wert.

You may create own fm with this logic

There is no Where-Used-List for this "logic" and if you do an F1 on the CALL ' ...statement you will see that the documentation is not meant to be encouraging...

I would do a code scan for use of the statement by SAP and try to find a (preferably released) FM or method which encapsulates it.

If there isn't one, then I guess it is either not foreseen (or even illogical) or a functional deficiency.

@ Nina: Is your concern that the user can logon with a language which is different to the system default language? So you actually want to make it a system mandatory language?

Cheers,

Julius
