Use

Symbols of symbol type Description/Phrase refer to phrase texts and phrase-related fields (phrase codes, graphics, and so on) of the SAP Product Safety component. You use this symbol type to insert language-independent, standardized text modules into your document template.

Features

When generating the report, the SAP System selects the phrases that are specified in a corresponding phrase symbol using the phrase key and library. The phrases are expanded in the language that you specified before the generation using the language key.

Using the phrase symbols you also insert phrase codes and graphics. The complete name of the graphics file (including its extension) must be entered as a phrase item.

Note

To insert a graphic in WWI, the graphics file must be stored in the LAYOUT directory in WWI.

Note

If you define a repeating group of the type Validity and language area, you can display language-dependent symbols within a document template in different languages in accordance with the validity area. In such cases, the system uses the discrete validity area - language combinations defined in the generation variant (see Generation Variant).
