how to delete a translated language (SE63) in smartforms? 

[venkateswaran_k]

Can you please elaborate.

Not able to understand your requirement

The deletion works for me if i do the following:

• SE63 => Other Texts => B5 SAPscript: Forms and Styles => SSF SAP Smart Form
• Select target language and edit
• Delete everything in target language and insert one * in line 1
• Save Active

Thanks! That helped me!

Hi Miu Miu,

Check table STXFTXT.

Deleting the entries here could be an option. I'm contemplating it now...

Best regards,

Better solution:

TX SMARTFORMS, delete object, recreate only with the languages you want. This way you'll make sure everything is clean. Otherwise there's no standard way to delete a translation (as far as I know).

Best,

a translated smartfoms (ZH), original is EN ,

Currently, i find two layout have many different, such as ( ZH: more field and wrong position etc.. )

Thus, i want to  delete ZH and  bypass output type language (point to EN directly).

Hi

Normally what we do is we create a smartform in english language and then in Se63 we maintain its transaltion. In case there are formatting issues we increase or decrese the space in smartforms and also in the target language in SE63.  Is it like you have condition based layouts in one smartform if yes then better option will be rather then deleting the other language in the driver programwhen smartform is called you can default it to EN language in this way it wont interupt. As translation needs to be deleted manually which is a little tedious work at present that'what i feel.

Could give me step by step to delete ?

Hi,

Well the better option would be to just pass EN language in the function module call of Smartform. This will ensure that the smartform with ZH translation would never be called.

However if you want to delete the translated text, then goto SE63=> Abap OBjects => Other Long texts => Forms & Styles => SAP Smart Forms

Enter your smartform name & source + Trarget language

EDIT

This will show you both the EN & ZH language text. Remove the translated text & save

Thanks,

Best regards,

This step, i have try it, but no work.

Also point to ZH. not EN.

[nabheetscn]

CAn you please explain when you pass EN languag what does not work. Seconldy you were talking about layouts can you please explain it little bit more clearly. We usually do not maintain different layouts base don languages are you maintaing the same in one smartforms. If you go in Se63 you will see an option of delete target text in EDIT button in Menu. Its little bit risky make sure you first try it in a local copy.

Is it ZH is not available, will be point to EN?? But it seem ZH always is available.

[nabheetscn]

For pointing it to EN check the driver program attached to this output type in NACE and in driver program always pass the EN lanaguage then it will automatically use EN
