Hi Experts,

My objective is to change the short text of data element

when i try to change it, it gives me two options:

1. Maintain in orignal lang (DE)

2. Maintain in longon lang (EN)

I clicked the 1. option, changed the short text, saved it, activated it.

But again when i am displaying it, its coming back to the old short text.

Do i need to perform some kind of traslation.

Any helpful entry will be rewarded.

Regard,

Raman.

Hi Anji,

when i go to se63, i select data element (enter my data element).

Select source language as German and target language as English. Click on edit and i get this:

Short text

Customs invoice required

ID for product attribute 4

the top one (Customs invoice required) was in German ealrier which i changed and the bottom one is in English. Now i want to replace "ID for product attribute 4" with "Customs invoice required". How can i achieve it.

Regards,

Raman.

Hi,

Go to SE63 T.code

or

Go to transaction SMLT , there you can see all the languages which were imported. Expand that and see the logs and make sure that you have imported correctly

Hi Raman,

in development system, enter $SYNC in the command line (where you enter transaction codes). Then your changes get visible. Note: The system/database keeps frequently used data like short text of data element in buffers. $SYNC resets all buffers.

If your requirement includes the translation: After changing short text (with activating data element), in Dictionary, use menu Goto->Translation.

Regards,

Clemens
