[Former Member]

Hello,

We are done with upgradtaion from 4.6 to ecc 6.0 and i see that there are many trables which are displaying lot of Junk characters in table like descriptions, text...etc

I am sure this could be an issue with the language conversion or with the unicode...any help will be apprecaited.

Hi,

You can do it in SUMG.

When you open the transaction code SUMG, you can find many tables. All these tables are identified in conversion which needs additional work on the language conversion issues.

Click on Monitor -> It will display the Total number of tables available in the list.

Check if the table is available and Select the table from the list example:

ZXYZ table --> Highlight the table name and to examine further we need to lock the table.

Click on Set Lock Icon , it will display the lock name/User name. Now click on Repair Icon.

It will prompt for a condition (You can give specific record number like customer number)

When I do that it will take me to another screen where I can find only table contents.

Select a record (5001506278) and click on Details Icon (There are many number of records available here for language conversion issue, it will not possible to convert all the fields manually ).

Here in Details window you if can see the plant and currency fieldsu2026using them you can sort and change them into Target language by identifying their original language.

Open another session and open Data Browser (SE16) Open the table T001w(This table will display all the plant locations) In werks field enter the plant number.

Werks : 1025 Click on Execute. Now you can find the plant location. It is in JAPAN.

It will display the Status, Old Code page, New Code page, New text.

Copy the New text and go to language translator and paste the content, select the option JapaneseEnglish and click on Translate button. If it translates in English correctly then you can go ahead and convert this into Japanese language.

Go back select the record (5001506278)  Select the Target Language as JA and click on Convert Button.

Hope this would solve your problem
