Hi again.

Go to SE63, then in the menu follow this path:

Transalation->ABAP Objects->Other Long Texts->FS (forms and styles)->SSF (Sap smart form)

This will transport you for a screen where you can choose the smartform (Object -> field Object Name). Press Enter. If says object not found, it's because the source language is wrong (box below named translation -> field source language --- press F4 to change it)

After this, you'll navigate (after pressing Enter with correct language in source and choosing a correct one in target) to the transaltion screen. You'll have you text elements, original on top, your transalation below.

Hope this helps.

Best regards.

Where you choose the object name, instead of puting ZSFORM, put Z* and make F4. Will appear Collection * (it's ok), press Enter.

Then will appear a list with all you Smartforms with the original language before the name and after the number.

Use 999999 (ABAP system) has Translation Area.

Best regards.

Hi.

Where is the German text? Nowhere. You are the one who has to write the German text.

&%TEXT1&

Created by Swetha

&%TEXT2&

hii

&ADDRESS&

FLY HIGH AIRLINES LIMITED

This is the original text. &%TEXT1& means text element /E %TEXT1, and so one. Created by Swetha is what you have in your smarform in that text element, right? And FLY HIGH AIRLINES LIMITED is what you have in text element ADDRESS, right?

Now,

Target text in raw version

&%TEXT1&

&%TEXT2&

&ADDRESS& ..... is the target, the translation.

Here, you must include the transaltion like (in PORTUGUESE 😞

Hi.

I hope that someone come here and tell you yes, there is a way for the system to automatically translate your English text to a German text. Unfortunatelly I don't know a way. I usually translate Portuguese texts to English by my self.

When you translate some objects in ABAP, the system really pruposes in English or German, but those are hardcoded texts, so it's already in the system. To translate your text, system must have a English-German translator, that I think it doesn't.

Let's wait and see if someone responds to this. Remember that you have online translator in web.

Good luck and if so post here (i'll be watching this thread).

Best regards.
