Polish after unicode convertion - Language from different codepage how-to

[ganimede_dignan]

Hi,

we have just convert a sendbox system from ASCII (SAP 1100 codepage) to Unicode (SAP ECC 6.0, Solaris 10 SPARC, Oracle 10.2.0.4, ecc.).

In ASCII, TCPDB table contais 1100 codepage, now is empty, is it OK?

Now we would try to install Polish language.... so I load it from SMLT from 000 client, apply delta support packges, run supplementation and then add L into istance profile, it OK? ... must I install also Polish locale into Solaris? ... any other work?

Regards.

- execute program RSCPINST, add "PL" and activate the changes

- open RZ10, edit your profile, "Basic maintenance" and select PL, save and restart instance

- then add the language as described with SMLT (import, delta support package, supplementation and client distribution for your production client)

No. You are now in Unicode, the necessary libraries are the libicu* libraries in your kernel directory, those are the (if you want) locales for the operating system. So nothing more is necessary.

To display the polish characters correctly in the SAPGUI you need to

- install the polish codepage on the frontend system

- switch the default from "Arial Monospace" to some other font that supports Latin-2 (such as Courier New)

- Start SMLT in the production client(s)

- Langauge - special actions - client maintenance

mhmmm my problem is on the translation of units of measure (CUNI TCODE)

I've just read 451720 note and try it... but several units stay with number digits in PL language.

Regards.

We had the same problem.

Try using the report of

Note 451720 - Language supplementation program for units of measure
