Impact of Unsupported Languages in Scoping in C4C

[former_member187066]

Hi,

As some of the countries/languages are not supported in Scoping in C4C. we have an option for Language translation.

I would like to know what is the impact or restriction of using Unsupported language. For Instance Portuguese language is not supported in Scoping.

What are the restrictions? what is the impact of using Portuguese language. Any impact on functionalities as it is not supported? Impact on Org structure?

Thanks

Hello Abdul ,

The language as 'Portuguese' is also supported .You can make it available following below

steps .

1.Logon in system ->Go to Business Configuration ->Edit Project Scope ->Go to Steps 4:Question

->click 'Build In Service and Suppoet ->Click Business Enviorment->click Address and Language.

=>On Right Hand side ,you can see the language selection option .Here you can check the language

as 'Portuguese'.

=>When you close and get back to Logon page ,an option for language as 'Portuguese' will be available .Once you logon all the content can be seen in Portuguese language .

Hope this answers.

Best Regards,

Ankush.

Hi Ankush,

I am aware that we can make it available using the above options.  Let me rephrase my question

There are some countries and languagesthat are not available in Scoping when we define Project scope. Eg Portugal, Greece or Romania. But still we can add it by using above options. I agree

But there will be some difference. If there is no difference, then all the languages/countries would have been provided while selecting country and language itself.

I want to know what is the difference, of later selecting the language as Portuguese instead of building the solution while creating in Portuguese.

It might have some impact/difference/restrictions. hope it makes sense.

Hello Abdul,

I dont think selecting a language later-on will have any impact ,because when you select the New language you further go through the complete project scope and Finish the changes made .

Secondly ,SAP provide fexibility to User to select the require Language (rather than all Language) while you define the inital scope OR you make changes in your scope .

Maybe you can wait for other expect from BC to comment on it .Hope this helps..

Thanks Ankush.

My main focus is on Country rather than Language. Whether C4C has any restrictions for specific Country

As you can see Portugal country is not available. But Portuguese language is flexible to select.

What is impact of unavailability of Country?

hello Abdul,

The concern you reported in this thread was about Language (for which above propose scoping question is the path).

If you have addition question related to 'Country' ,maybe you can check "Edit Project Scope" ->'1:Country and Type of Business' .

Hope this help you.

Regards,

Ankush.

I have checked in Country and Type of Business. Some of the countries are not available.

I want to know the impact of Unavailable countries.

We also have the same issue - Romanian is available as a language in fine tuning as standard but is not available as a "solution language" in scoping under Scoping  -->  Questions  -->  Built-in Services and Support  -->  Business Environment  -->  Addresses and Languages.  re: OSS Note 1777108 - How to Add a New System Language

Selecting the Romanian language in fine tuning (Additional Communication Languages) does not seem to present it within the logon language drop-down.

I noticed that the fine tuning states "Your solution is delivered with a fixed number of languages for logging on to the system. To communicate in languages other than the logon languages chosen during scoping, select from the list of available communication languages. The system then supports the translation of certain texts on system UIs and printed forms into these allowed communication languages."  To me that is saying that setting the additional language only enables you to maintain translations for it, not to use it as a logon language.

Incidentally, not having the logon languages listed in alphabetical order is a pain.  😕
