Hi everyone,

When i log on in Spanish to SAP BW the column headers in the queries appears with the technical name, not the description as it does when i log on in english.

What should i do?

Thanks,

Rafael

Hi,

The technical name shows up, when there is no translation.

There is a tool for translation in transaction RSA1. Same leve as Business content or transport connection. And the collection of objects for translation also works the same way.

However....

It is often not nessecary to translate all objects of a data model and therefore easier and quicker to log on in the desired language and maintain the translation of infoobjects and queries this way (as you would in the original language).

However...

Every name of an infoobject you change is not automatically applied within the queries. In this case you would have to maintain every query manually again. We wrote a program for this. Could probably send you the code if you experience the same. (request at beatstoller@yahoo.com).

We are facing a similar problem in our environment. Can you please forward me the program for this.

I really would appreciate the response.
