UWL Internationalization - How to change the UWL columns Labels

[Former Member]

Hi Experts ,

I have been trying to find the way to change the label of some standard columns of the Universal Worklist .

HAving read some of the documentation of SAP ; they say that the text based-languaged is defined thourgh the referenceBundledId which refers to the descriptionBundle : for example ;

Having put these lines into the standard XML uwl.standard ... doesn't do much ...

Anybody knows where do I provide the standard attributes (column) of the UWL text changes ?

Best Regards !

Hi All,

Thank you so much for the answers , Unfortunately like Pierre is stating; I know how to do the WebDynpro Personalization but this is not opened for UWL iviews ..

Anybody has any ideas about the XML Config ?

Best Regards !

Hi Thierno,

Well it seems the UWL is NOT a WD application in EP 7.0 EhP 1 after all.

If you want to change the standard labels you'll probably have to download and modify the standard application. Here's how you can get the source code : navigate to System Administration > Support > Portal Runtime > Browse Deployment. Then navigate to "ROOT/WEB-INF/portal/portalapps/com.sap.netweaver.bc.uwl.ui" and download the folder.

I guess the labels you are looking for are in one of the properties files : \classes\com\sap\netweaver\bc\uwl\ui\i18n\

Hi,

You can change the headings by personalization. You can do it as an administrator which automatically propagates to all the users. You can also transport it to other environments.

Look for the administrator section in this doc. You can also have multiple languages for the same column heading. Just login as a user\admin using the specific language and change the heading by clicking on the column label and then Ctrl+Rt click. Repeat the same for all the languages you want.

Hi,

You cannot use Personalization on the UWL because it's not a Web Dynpro application.

EDIT : in NW 7.0 the UWL is a WD application. But I can't customize it using Personalization. This is weird.
