EH&S - Label - define multiple language variantions - one template

Former Member

Dear all,

We would like to generate an Product Safety Label from the system (by using a WWI template). The difficulty is that these lables should contain as much as possible languages and they deviate from time to time, as of shipping to other countries.

As far as we know, we can change the Symbol catagory by using the following IMG path:

IMG path: EHS > Basic data tools > Report Definiton > Report Symbols > Check and Specify Report Symbols. Here we can change the report symbol type to paramater or change the rep. sym. group so that an pop-up will appear at the display (generation) of a Label from one specification. We would like to use the input parameters to define the specific languages on the Label (e.g. 6 languages for e.g. First Aid measures phrases), this with only one WWI template.

Would this be feasible? Or are there other options/ways to configure/develop the report so that we can display (on-demand) the specific languages we would like to have on the label?

Thank you in advance!!

Kind regards,

Rob Greijmans

Hi,

Standard GLM process determines the language based on the Gen-variant and validity area. You can pre define the language for the particular country which takes the related GV and prints the information on Label. You can get the customizations through SAP help

Hello

in addition of what has been explaned:

you need a good understanding how to maintain WWI layouts and what is needed on the level of the generation vairaiant in addition (GLM topic). This topic is a little bit "sophisticated" and you should start only if you understand the basic concepts in doing so and there will be many "pitfalls".

Take a look here:

http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04_sp/helpdata/en/a1/4eeaa2eaab5f4ebd8272e143831f06/frameset.htm

and especially using the EH&S sap help you will find the topic:

"Example: Repeating Group of Type G"

And you need to have a look here as well in EH&S hel

"Taking Validity Areas into Account"

with best regards
