Language codes / Assignment system languages

If language dependent documents shall be integrated, the supported language codes (languages / language definitions) must be defined here.

A language code can correspond to one or several SAP system languages. For example: DEF = German, English and French. In order to have access to these language codes (e.g. for a search), the related system language can be written automatically to a multi-valued characteristic of the document info record by ProOBJ:

  1. Basic settings / LangCode char. requires a valid characteristic name (multi-value).

  2. In this setting Assignment system language the corresponding system languages must be assigned to the language code.

If both conditions are met and a document is created, the system languages assigned to the language code (= part document) will be written automatically in the related characteristic.

Document Control

In this area following settings can be maintained:

  • for data elements and revisions

  • for language dependent documents

  • automatic exchange of responsible user

Info

During an object handling with the ProConfiguration, the settings for validity and revision

as well as the

control

when versions are allowed are never

active.

In general, documents should either

...

be created and

...

versioned completely via ProConfiguration or completely outside

of ProConfiguration. Documents that are managed outside can then be linked in ProConfiguration. Mixed use should be avoided. Excepted from this is the status handling of the document versions which is generally maintained at this point, i.e. also for ProConfiguration.

A document created or changed by ProChangeDoc will be generally ignored by this settings. Except any filling of the characteristic "LangCode char." is supported. For this the ProChangeDoc document type and identification must be assigned to a control group with corresponding language codes.
