Workflow Translation

Hi,

We have copied the standard WF WS90000050 to a custom WF WS90000016 for Travel expense Workflows.

When it was copied, the maintenance language was also copied as German.

How can we change the maintenance language of a wf from German to English ?

The language is seen under the header data, technical details of a WF

Hi Anwar,

I found a work-around to solve this issue:

<ol><li>Call transaction se16n and edit the table SWDSHEADER with the &sap_edit trick</li>

<li>Fill in the reference of your worklow </li>

<ul><li>WFD_ID: your_workflow_id (i.e. WS99999999)</li>

<li>VERSION: the_last_generated_version_of_your_workflow (i.e. 0001)</li>

<li>EXETYP: S - Definition</li></ul>

<li>Execute (F8)</li>

<li>Change the LANGUAGE cell to your desired language</li>

<li>and SAVE</li></ol>

Hi,

But is it the standard practice to edit the values this way thru se16n?

I mean is it going to effect the WF config in any way ?

Hello,

Updating SAP tables directly is not a good idea. He did say it was a workaround.

What's "the &sap_edit trick" ?
