Hi Gurus,

Is there any <b>Function module</b> in SAP to tranlate the text. For eg. the logon language is Bulgarian & the text entered while posting a document is also in Bulgarian language & need to translate the same in English.

Rgds,

Hi,

To get the text in english, you will have to maintain the translation of the bulgarian text in English at appropriate place.

If you are posting a document using standard transaction, the document text can be maintained in different languages there itself.

If you want some text elements etc, displayed as per the logon language, then the texts have to be maintained in all the languages required. this can be done using transaction SE63. this does not help in translating english to bulgarian or vice versa, but will allow to maintain bulgarian texts in english, or for that matter in any other language that SAP supports.

As far as I know, there is no Function module to do the translation. Only maintainence of texts in different languages is provided for.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Rashmi.

hi,

There is a transaction se63 to do the translations in SAP. I dont think there is any FM to translate the Text. You can translate any text in any language using SE63. The text can be hardcoded text or some text-symbol.

Get the transalated text and translate it using SAP SE63 tcode.

Regards,

Richa

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I was trying to test the FM given by you, but I get a message that <b>'Text in source language not in the proposal pool'</b>.

Can you please help me figure out what that means.

I am not a ABAPer, so cannot actually get what that means exactly.

Rgds,
