Translating Planning Type, Freely Defined Line, and Macro Texts 

If you want more than one language group to be able to use a planning type, you need to translate the planning type text as well as any freely defined line texts and macro texts so that they are available in systems with different logon languages.

  2. In the To language field, enter your target language.

    3. The source language (your logon language) is displayed in the field above.

  3. Choose Continue .

    4. The fields for the planning type and freely defined texts in the target language are ready for input.

  4. Enter your translations.
  5. Choose Macro texts .

    6. The bottom half of the screen now shows the macros defined for this planning type.

  6. Enter your translations of the macro texts on the bottom right of the screen.

The translations will be saved when you save the planning type.
