Custom copy description program between languages

0 Likes
217

When a Cost Center is created in one logon language (e.g., English), the description entered is only stored for that language. When users log on in a different language (e.g., Spanish), the Cost Center description field appears empty.
The Cost Center description should either be replicated across all active languages.
Is this behavior covered by standard SAP functionality (e.g., via automatic language replication or a configuration parameter)? If not, please confirm whether a custom development (Z-program) is required to address this gap.

Hello Maria, 

This behavior is covered by standard SAP design. Cost center descriptions are language-dependent and are stored separately per logon language. Therefore, a description maintained in English is not automatically available in Spanish or other languages.

I hope this helps
