Application Standard 

Definition

Application standards are specific translations for terms within an application as this application appears in the application hierarchy. Here, a sub-application is counted as belonging to the higher-level application. (For example, CO-PA belongs to CO; from the point of view of development classes, FBAS belongs to FI.

Use

If you translate a source text differently from the system standard translation, and the best proposal is the system standard, you will be asked to decide whether you want to store this translation as an application standard or as an exception. If you define an application standard, this will become the standard translation in the respective application, and the system standard will no longer be valid there.

The system standard for Vorgang is Activity.

In the application PP, Vorgang is translated as Operation. If you define Operation as the application standard in PP, Operation or length variants of Operation will appear as the best proposal.

Existing translations of Vorgang as Activity in PP are no longer valid.

Best Proposal

The application standard has priority over the system standard. In other words, if both a system standard and an application standard exist, the system will propose the application standard as the best proposal for a source text in the specific application.

If no application standard exists for your source text, the system proposes the system standard as best proposal.

Integration

The graphic below shows that the application standard is only valid in the application in which it has been created.
