Do you mean the SAP-Logon or sapgui?

Click on the upper left corner of saplogon and choose options, there you will find a language setting. You have to logoff from all systems and restart saplogon afterwards.

The default language of a sap-system can only be changed by your basis-team as said before.

Hi,

If you want the SAP system language to be changed , please change the value of zcsa/system_language parameter in the instance profile.

if you want to change the SAPGUI i.e SAPLOGON PAD language , click on the upper left corner of SAPlogon pad -> click options -> change the language and give OK.

Hi,

There is one more thing wich anoys me. Like said before there are:

1. SAP Logon language which I changed using "click on the upper left corner of SAPlogon pad -> click options -> change the language and give OK". Now it's EN.

2. Language for my SAP user accaunt - after I login I get EN - I changed that using SU01.

But login window is still in my national language - after I enter credentials this changes to EN according to 2. But while I'm not logged in it's not EN.

How do I change that ?

thanks

Yes! This is what worked for me: I had a default language 'FR' on the logon window that was different from the one assigned to my user 'EN'. I went to the sap-gui (7.30) options under: SAP logon Options - General - Language. There it was 'FR'. I changed it to 'EN' and now I have the EN by default on the logon window.

This is specially useful when you connect trought Single Sing On (SSO SNC), because you don't see the logon window and the defalut language used is the one from the SAP-Gui options instead of the one on your user (SU01).

The default language on your user is only used if you untick the option of default language on the SAP-GUI.

I hope this helps.
