🔍

Known Causes

4 known causes
⚠️
Incorrect Language Configuration
The system's language settings or the specific application's configuration may be pointing to an unsupported or improperly configured language.
⚠️
Invalid Language Code in Input
The input data or the document segment itself may contain an incorrect or unrecognized language code that the system cannot process.
⚠️
Missing Language Master Data
Essential language master data or translation resources required for the specified language might be incomplete or missing in the SAP S/4HANA system.
⚠️
Corrupted Document Segment Data
The data within the document segment or the input string it references might be corrupted, preventing proper language assignment.

Solutions

3 solutions available

1. Verify and Recreate Language Objects medium

Ensures that all language-dependent objects are correctly generated and available for the affected language.

1
Identify the language(s) experiencing the error. This is crucial for targeted troubleshooting.
2
Access the SAP system via SAP GUI. Navigate to transaction SE38 (ABAP Editor).
3
Enter the program name RSUPGRES and execute it.
RSUPGRES
4
In the selection screen, choose 'All object types' or specify relevant object types (e.g., DDIC objects, texts, messages). Select the affected language(s) under 'Language'.
5
Execute the program in the background. Monitor the job for completion and check the job log for any errors.
6
If the issue persists, try recreating specific language objects. For example, for text elements, use transaction SE37 to find relevant function modules (e.g., 'RS_TEXT_ELEMENT_GET' with appropriate parameters) and execute them to force regeneration.

2. Check and Adjust System Locale Settings easy

Ensures that the operating system and database locale settings align with SAP's expected language configurations.

1
Log in to the operating system of the SAP S/4HANA application server. Identify the system's current locale settings.
locale
# or
locale -a
2
Verify that the locale settings (e.g., for character encoding and language) are correctly configured and supported by SAP S/4HANA. Ensure that the language code used in SAP is present in the system's locale definitions.
3
If necessary, adjust the system locale to match the SAP language requirements. This might involve modifying the `/etc/locale.conf` file or using commands like `localectl set-locale`.
sudo localectl set-locale LANG=<your_language_code>.UTF-8
4
Restart the SAP application server instance after making any locale changes.
5
Additionally, check the database server's locale settings. For HANA, this typically involves ensuring the `LC_ALL` environment variable is set correctly for the `<sid>adm` user and that the database itself is configured with appropriate character set and collation settings.

3. Review and Update SAP Kernel and Language Packs advanced

Ensures the SAP kernel and installed language packs are up-to-date and compatible, preventing potential generation issues.

1
Identify the current SAP kernel version and the installed language packs on your S/4HANA system. This can be done via transaction `SM51` (System -> Status -> SAP Kernel Information) and `SMLG` (Login Group) or `SP01` (Spool Requests) for language information.
2
Consult SAP Notes for the latest recommended kernel patches and language pack updates relevant to your S/4HANA version. Pay close attention to notes related to language handling and object generation.
3
Plan and execute the upgrade of the SAP kernel and language packs according to SAP's installation guidelines. This usually involves system downtime and careful coordination.
4
After the kernel and language pack updates, re-run the language object regeneration program (RSUPGRES) as described in the 'Verify and Recreate Language Objects' solution to ensure all objects are built with the new components.
