Languages and Translations

WATCH THE VIDEO

SAP S/4HANA has its own translations system. In SAP S/4HANA you can add not only product descriptions in any language but much more. For example, you can enter the following data in different languages:

• Product name
• Product description
• Product hierarchy name
• Material characteristics
• Units of measure
• Countries

Sana is a multi-lingual e-commerce solution. When you install it, the Sana webstore is available in English. But you can install the language pack and create your webstore content in any language.

If you installed some language packs for your webstore, and you have some data in SAP S/4HANA in the same languages, for example product names and descriptions, Sana can retrieve these translations and show this content in different languages in your webstore.

To retrieve translations from SAP S/4HANA, you must install the necessary webstore language packs in Sana and also set up the same languages in SAP S/4HANA.

Set Up Languages in SAP S/4HANA

Step 1: Maintain the table /SANAECOM/CULMAP in SAP S/4HANA. This table should only contain the cultures and languages that are required for the Sana webstore.

Step 2: Open the Webstore Configuration Sana app in the SAP Fiori launchpad.

Step 3: Select the necessary webstore and click Edit.

Step 4: In the Webstore Settings, on the Extra Languages tab add the languages which you are going to use in your webstore.

If you use translations from SAP S/4HANA for your Sana webstore, make sure that all required data has all the necessary translations.
