  • Application language. You can change the application language. The command names in the EPM tab are displayed in the language you have selected when you restart the application.
    Note If you have opened the EPM plug-in from SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise BI launch pad, the plug-in inherits the SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise BI launch pad application language defined for the current user.
  • Data language. You can change the data language. If the data language you select does not exist in a cube or model, members are displayed in the cube/model default language. Because the EPM plug-in is integrated into Microsoft Office Excel and PowerPoint, it inherits all the Windows international settings for number and date defaults and formats.
    When connecting to an SAP NetWeaver BW InfoCube, you choose the data language.
    Note If the language of the retrieval tool is not available in the SAP NetWeaver BW InfoCube, internal IDs will appear as names for the members.

    When connected to a local connection, if the data language is specified in the .oqy file, it overrides the data language specified in the User Options.

    To change the languages, use the Application Language and Data Language options in Start of the navigation path EPM Next navigation step User Options End of the navigation path.
