Hello,

Is there any FM in abap for translating text to other language in my case it is for english to russian. The text will be anything. I need to translate this from within the program. The contents of the fields of the segments need to be changed.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Check the Function Module : TRANSLATE_TEXT_TEXTLOG

To Translate manually check in se63;

From the menu Goto Translation->ABAP Objects ->Other Long Texts

Expand FS Forms and Styles and Select SSF SAP Smart Form

Enter the Name of the Tex module

And the Source Language and Target Language.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Remi

hi,

Go to SE63.

From the Menu Bar Select Translation - > ABAP Objects - Other Long Texts

Click the Forms & Styles tab and double click on Forms

A screen will appear , provide the form name as input for Object name

You can change and source and target language and press edit.

Hi Muppa

Thanks for your reply. But I could not understand.

Suppose in my program I have some text in variable TEXT01, how at run time I can translate that text to russian language?

Hi,

So, you have some text in (say) English and at runtime you want SAP to translate the text into Russian? SAP does not have translation functionality, it can manage multiple languages but to need to provide both the English and Russian version of the text.

So you mean to say , run time translation is not possible. What is the other way round.?

Hi,

I guess you're looking for third party translation software that you can call from SAP to perform the translation.
