Definition

The Language key field contains an alphanumeric code that identifies the language an entry is written in.

Use

In DISPLAY mode, this field identifies the language a record is written in.

In CREATE mode, use this field to identify the language you will use to enter a description. To do so either:

  • Type in the appropriate code, or
  • Request a list of language codes and make a selection by either:
    . Pressing F4, or
    . Clicking the down arrow

NOTE: It is not possible to make entries in this field, everywhere in the system. Sometimes the system automatically completes the field, and you may not change it.

Selecting the language-specific object text

Use

With this, it can be chosen in which languages the object texts from the table T77QB are copied.

Caution: Other languages can no longer be re-loaded later. The qualifications catalog should therefore be imported as completely as possible.
