Web Dynpro iView Translation

Former Member

Hi Everyone,

We have a requirement at my client to deliver the portal in two languages (Chinese and English). When I change the language of the user from English to Chinese (China) the portal content langauge changes (TLN, Masthead etc. are displayed in Chinese), however when I navigate to any Web Dynpro iViews e.g. Bank Information (ESS iView), I still see everything in English. I have checked my Web Dynpro Content Admin and both zh_CN, zh_HK are available.

My Second question is if I add some verbiage to this iView via WDP Personalization (Ctrl + right click), can this verbiage also be translated? If so, how?

Thanks for all your help!

Hi Vinit,

Thanks for your reply. By changing the language on the portal to "Chinese (China)", the MSS iViews are getting translated. However, ESS iViews are still being displayed in English.

Is there a way I can personalize the language for all users through Web Dynpro Personalization? Please let me know how to go about doing this. I checked my Web Dynpro personalization options in the iView and it doesn't allow me to make any changes to the language used.

Any help from the experts would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi,

You must set your SAP_R3_HumanResources_MetaData JCO connections's language to blank, so that it uses the Browser's language for WD applications.
