As well as the translations of system objects, the system also contains a large number of language-specific texts that are stored in text tables. These text tables are usually Customizing tables or system tables.

Unlike objects that have a directory entry, the content of these tables does not have a unique assignment to a package or software component.

The following steps are performed when you transport text tables:

  1. All texts are exported in your chosen language. The relevant transport object is LANG TABU <table name>.

  2. If the text table is client-specific, then texts are taken only from the client where the export was started.

  3. The content of the text table is assigned to the same package as the table itself.
