E-Recruiting translate role short text

[Former Member]

Hi

I would like to translate the short text of a SAP role to different languages. I tried it over SE63->Translation->ABAB Objects->Short Texts-> S3 ABAP Texts-> ACGR Roles but without success. The only way I know is over SE16n ->Table AGR_TEXTS. Do you have other suggestions, which are smoother?

Hi Fitli,

to trnaslate a authorization role via SE63 you can use the following path:

SE63 -> Translation -> ABAP Objects -> Transport Object -> R3TR ACGR <ROLENAME>

This allows to translate the short text and the menu for the role. And you can change the description if you want. So it should allow every change you need.

Best Regards

Roman

EDIT:

Sometimes I should really remember the stuff I learned quite some years ago ;o).

The path you mentioned is working. Only thing you have to remember is that the authorization roles are client dependent that's why when you use it, the object name is <CLIENT><ROLENAME> e.g. 010Z_MY_RECRUITER_ROLE. Then it is working, only the long description can't be changed there.

Why this path uses another object name than the transport object name? I have no idea.

Hi,

you cannot translate role descriptions.

Other terms

ACGR, AGL, translation tools, SE63

Reason and Prerequisites

You create role descriptions in transaction PFCG. The way you access role

descriptions for translation depends on the SAP_BASIS release level of your

system.

Here is a easy solution:

You access role description texts for translation as follows:

SAP_BASIS 7.00 SP07 and higher

o Call transaction SE63

o Enter ACGR in the command field and choose Enter

o Enter three hyphens followed by the technical name of the role in the Object Name field

For example, ---SAP_ACH_ADMIN (important are the 3 dashes!!!)

o Maintain the source and target languages

o Choose Edit

The system opens the short text editor. Enter your translation of the role description in the translation line, and choose Save.

SAP_BASIS 6.20 SP25 to 7.00 SP06

o Call transaction SE63

o Enter AGL in the command field and choose Enter

o Enter three hyphens followed by the technical name of the role in the Object Name field

For example, ---SAP_ACH_ADMIN

o Maintain the source and target languages

o Choose Edit

The system opens the long text editor. The role description is displayed in the first line of the object. Enter your translation of the role description, and choose Save.

SAP_BASIS 4.6C to 6.20 SP24

o Call transaction SE63

o Enter AGL in the command field and choose Enter

o Enter the technical name of the role in the Role field o Maintain the source and target languages

o Choose Edit

The system opens the long text editor. The role description is displayed in the first line of the object. Enter your translation of the role description, and choose Save.

Hi Bobi004 and others,

I am facing the same issue with roles been created in original language DE. I'm explaining with example to illustrify:

Existing role was Z:SD_CREATE_MODIFY_DFOV_100T in Development (which was created in language DE originally)

I created Z:SD_CREATE_MODIFY_DFOV_SBP copying the above 100T role. (while logging in language EN).

System didn't copy the description and I had to take description from production system (which was also in language DE)

Now, when users are logging in EN language (they see role description which is in Deutch which is understood).

When users log in to DE language, they dont see any description.

I checked the solution in this forum and tried to apply it in SE63. After following the path and role name as 200Z:SD_CREATE_MODIFY_DFOV_SBP (200 is my client number); I receive the error "Object does not exist"

I'm ready to follow a lead even if its time consuming, but please help if you can ..

Regards.
