Hi all,

We have a ECC 6.0 system and we are introducing Japanese markets.

When we try to see table KNA1: SE16-->KNA1 and we search a word in Japanese language written in single-byte format, there is no problem, the search returns us the entries.

But when we try to serach the very same word in Japanese written in double-byte format, the search does not return any result.

How can we activate that the search matches the word entered in double-byte, with single-byte entries in the table??

Our system is Unicode.

We have seen some forum results:

Prerequisites

u2022 Modify the codepage to level 8000

u2022 Install Japanese language package for SAP

u2022 Activate English and Japanese language in Windows

u2022 Activate Multibyte support in SAP GUI: ALT-F12 -> Options -> I18N tab -> Enable Multibyte support

u2022 Change SAP font script to u2018Japaneseu2019

But the thing is that we have SAPGUI 7.20 version, and we do not find the way to activate multibyte...

Thanks!

Hi,

SAP note 1428423 describes the necessary functionality needed.

However this is not implemented in SAP ERP 6.0 standard.

The tools described in the note could be used to modify the system. But I think this would be a high effort.

Best regards,
