To maintain customer addresses in multiple languages (like maintaining English and Arabic address for the same Customer master record) you need to activate International Address Version functionality in Central Address Management

Have a look at

Yes Vishnu

I will be more specific, We have Customer Master data ready to be uploaded but we need to upload it with 2 diffrent lanuages (Customer Discription) in enlglish as well as Arabic. Even after activating International Language (Arabic) i could not find the proper field for Arabic Discription to be used in uploading.

They want to see the customer discription in Arabic when they open SAP in arabic language in the drop down list (XD02,VA01)

Thanks

Malik,

Go through the document I gave. That is standard SAP way of enabling Customer addresses so that they can be maintained in more than one language. And that includes Customer names and other description fields that are shown in drop down lists.

OK, I uploaded the document in SCRIBD. You can view it from there or use the download functionality to get it on your PC

Is it wise to upload copyright documents like that? Did you miss this bit in the document:
