Hi friends,

We have an issue with an output of Delivery note which has a smartform. We want the output to be displayed in english and in german language. We have sending country address ( shipping Point, Language is German) and receiving country address ( ship to party language is English) but the title of the address is not translating from German to english, when the output parameter language is english rest of the text body is completely translated.

Thanks and regards

Hi,

Please check if the address is maintained in different languages in the address maintenance (of shipping point - you may notice that you can maintain the address in different languages). If you have the title maintained only in German and not in English, system will print the title only in German language.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi Shekar,

Then the best idea is to have the ABAPer debug and find as to why the system is not printing what it is supposed to print. ABAPer should not take much time to find out the reason why an issue exist.

Hope this helps

Hi Mukund,

Even developer also checked the parameters in SMARTFORMS and also translation. My understanding is that since shipping Point title address language is maintained as english, while the shipping point language maintenace feild is DE in the address screen, even though we assign output parameter in english it will print in german. similarly the title of Ship to Party address is Language field is English it takes only the language of ship to party.

what your opinioin?

Hi Shekar,

I think your understanding is correct. However, this needs to be checked once in the system as it involves different combinations. As far as my understanding goes, if you need the address (as well as the title) to be printed in English, then, system should be able to find the address in English from the address table (ADRC) for which the address in address field should be maintained in English (or In multiple langugages). The language in which you are printing also matters. All these can be tweeked in the print program though...

Hope this helps...

Thanks

Hi Shekhar

Ideally when you create the smartform in English, the system tries to find out if an address is maintained in English or not. If the smartform cannot find the English translation for it, the thing will get printed in German while rest of the parameters will be printed in English as the form is being printed in English.
