Change Language in Web Dynpro

[Former Member]

Hi forum,

I have to change the parameter sap-language in my web dynpro application because I want to display it always in english and not according to user logon language.

I tried with command SET LOCALE LANGUAGE AND SET LANGUAGE and all texts are translated but the error messages are still in italian since the parameter is still IT.

How I can do it.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Salvatore,

You can force the application to use a specific language by passing URL parameter sap-language with the language value you want, in this case EN for English, e.g.,

http://host:port/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zapplication?sap-language=EN

Hi Salvatore,

Can you please provide more detail about your scenario? Is this a custom-built application? How are you launching the application? From the portal? If you have access to the URL that is used to launch the application, you can simply add the parameter to the URL. If you are using an iView, please see this discussion.

Cheers,

Amy
