POWL: Heading translation

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need the headings of the POWL which displays the Overtime report of the employees in MSS, to be translated to Swedish.

Can you please tell me where I can translate only the headings of the report?

Regards,

Have you tried SE63?

[Former Member]

Sorry, but it is the heading of a POWL that I need to translate. How can I do that in SE63?

Aparna

[former_member201275]

SE63 -> Translation -> ABAP objects -> Short Texts.

then: S6 Technical short texts, and double click on 'WDYN'

under object name enter your object name.

But what would be the object name? CL_POWL_INFOSET_QUERY is the feeder class, POWL is the application for which I have my own application and component configuration.

It will also help if you can tell me how to edit the column headings.

It is not necessary that we translate it (because the report will be seen only in Swedish).

So is there a way by which I can edit the column headings?

Sorry.

Have you tried these transactions:

1) query_name - can be defined in POWL_QUERY transaction (description column).

2) type_name - can be defined in POWL_TYPE transaction (description column too).

Query descriptions and types descriptions can be translated to other languages in POWL_QUERY and POWL_TYPE transactions respectively (Goto -> Translation).

Yes, I have tried that. But that doesn't meet my requirement.

I have to change the column headings. Any way that I can edit the field catalog that the powl uses?

Ok, then I don't know. Was hoping somebody else on here might know and reply but seemingly not!

Last suggestion... maybe try google? I found this: http://scn.sap.com/thread/1608181 which suggests POWL_EASY.

or here, the wiki link: http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/SRM/POWL+Column+Translation

POWL_EASY and SRM translation doesn't work in this case...

[former_member201275]

Can you post some screen shots of what you want changed. Preferably from beginning to end i.e. i would like to see what you are running.

[Former Member]

I want to edit the column headings of the POWL (highlighted in yellow) :

Its feeder class is CL_POWL_INFOSET_QUERY.

Behind this will be a webdynpro component, within this component will be views, and within these views will be the windows with texts. Normally these are OTR texts and can be maintained with transaction SOTR_EDIT.
