christophe.hu2,

From what i understand If you are trying to translate a text n the report you can directly navigate to the below path from menu bar once you are inside the program.

Go to --> Translate

You will be facing a pop up where you have to fill the source and destination language to which you need to translate.

In case if you are talking about a SO10 text, please note that SE63 wont help in that case, you need to individually create text in SO10 for each language.

If its still not resolved, request to explain about your requirement further.

Regards!

You are almost there, all you need to do in SE61 is pre select the "Document Class" to "Dialog Text" (DT) and the language you want to change for your object SWU_NOTIF_EPILOG1 (it looks like you can't change these fields but actually you can 😉

Then it will ask you a modification name and you should be able to change it.
You could also change it in table DOKTL directly, but I do not recommend this, since SE61 is the tool per default for these text objects. I figured out that it was DT - "Dialog Text" by finding the entry SWU_NOTIF_EPILOG1 in DOKTL, in case you have further text elements you need to translate this way.
