Hi Manu,

There is no "language specific stock" in a plant. If a product is labeled in French and the other in English, the common sense dictates to create to 2 different references: 2 material numbers in the SAP system.

i have to agree with Franck...... dont understand what you mean by language specific stocks.

You can maintain language specific description for a material in the material master. Also while creating the sales order, the system first takes the Customer language and see if Material description is maintained in that language. Like if customer is EN, system sees if material description has been maintained in EN or not. If not, then it takes the Sales org language (say DE) and again tries to see if material exists in DE. If it still does not find the langauge, then you will get an error message saying material not mianted in the language in the sales order.

Hi Manu

Yes you can very well maintain language specific stock. While creating material in above Basic Data-1 there is additional data button, maintain only the language for which that material should belong to. You can maintain multiple languages for a material.

Now while creating sales order if you search for material with match code using language you will get the list of only those materials where the mentioned language is present under the additional data button as maintained in the above description.

In case you maintain language EN for three materials you will get the list of all three in sales order while searching for material with language EN and if there is only one material of language FR then only that one will be shortlisted while searching for material with language FR.

I hope this is what you were looking for.

Thank You

Hi,

For viewing any language specific material's stock , you shld have uploaded the material in table MAKT in the specific language. Then, while logging in to SAP, while providing the user name & password ,also provide the laguage in which you need to view. After logging in using the specific language ,you can view it .
