Change SAP Logon text

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm trying to change SAP Logon text for 740. I used text ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO in SE61 and got a popup to enter a modification name. After entering modifiation name I changed the text. After logon of and entering Logon page again there are a lot of strange texts and codes in the Logon window. Anyone who knows how to correct this?

Br,

Hi Fredrik,

If i had to guess you may have just missed setting up the text in the correct language setting. Take a look here and follow the instructions mentioned by frank . If that does not work look at subhash mentioned about deleting and recreating login screen.

Hope this helps fix your issue,

Very few options are available on this screen, read reference OSS note  205487 - Custom text on SAP GUI logon screen. Else text cannot be meaningfully displayed on the logon screen.

Regards,

Raymond

Since no one answered according to your question: if you want to set an individual text for each system (QS, PROD), and you don't want to do it via transport from DEV, you can't do it via modification properly. SAP tries to combine the original text with your modification and your picture is the result. It's an old technique, though.

In your non-DEV-System go to

1. go to SE16N, table DOKTL (ID = TX, OBJECT = ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO) and save your last version of the text, just to be on the safe side of life (e.g. in notepad++ or similar)
2. go to Transaction SE61
3. in window settings, field "document class", please select (with F4) "General text" (short TX)
4. select language if necessary
5. below in window document, please put ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO into the field "Name".
6. click Button "Delete" (garbage can) above and create a new document ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO.

Maybe you have to set specific options in SCC4 and SE06 to be able to do so.

Hi, depending on your own context, we tried another option. 

After a S/4 upgrade, we had to change the GUI logon text. We also had the same issue as Fredrik Ragnar (we had to enter a modification name and then the logon text was not as expected). Every above answers and notes were useful, but in our case, we did this :

1. Check the TADIR table entry R3TR DOCT ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO - If the source system is not the same as the system you are working on (our case), go to the below steps.
2. Tcode SE03 > subcategory "object directory" > subcategory "Change object directory entries". Then, enter the object type and object name and execute. Now you are able to change the Original System of the object R3TR DOCT ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO. Save.
3. Tcode SE61 - you should now be able to change the text ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO without any issue.
4. Enjoy your new logon text.
