Actual system codepage

Former Member — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 08:41:23 GMT

Hello,

where can I cat t^he actual active System codepage in a MDMP-System? Something like sy-langu...or is there a table with codepage and language...I found TCP0F, TCP0C both don't get the real information that I need.

I need language -> SAP codepage

DE -> 1160

ZH -> 8400

RU -> 1500

JA -> 8000

...

Hello,

TCP0C is correct.

Example (operating system of your application server: HP-UX_10 / language DE / standard MDMP system):

TCP0C-PLATFORM = HP-UX_10

TCP0C-LANGU = DE

TCP0C-COUNTRY = <empty>

TCP0C-MODIFIER = <empty>

Then TCP0C-CHARCO or TCP0C-CHARCOMNLS will give you the code page (1100 in this example).

Alternatively you can use report rscp0013 (Initial screen - Character set of appl server).

Hmm, but when I enter 'EN' or 'DE' I expect the codepage 1160 and not 1100.

Hi,

1160 is the frontend code page

1100 is the code page of the application server

If you are interested in the standard frontend code page, you need to look at TCP0F:

Example:

TCP0F-SYSCP = 1100

TCP0F-TYPE = MS

TCP0F-STATUS = S

This will give you

TCP0F-FECP = 1160

This means that the system uses 1160 in standard as frontend code page, if the backend (application server) code page is 1100.

SAP uses ISO-8859-x code pages for single byte languages on application server and in case of MS frontends MS code pages on the frontend side.
