Summary :
This SAP Note addresses common queries about language import procedures and settings within SAP systems. Key topics include the necessity of language imports during upgrades, using appropriate language CDs, and handling language settings. For instance, during an upgrade, even if German is not a login language, it must be classified as installed in SMLT to prevent issues. Always use the language CD for your specific system release, ensuring that during upgrades, all required languages are imported promptly for efficiency. Additionally, system log display in Transaction SMLT helps confirm the success of language imports or supplementations. Critical steps like conducting language imports before client copying are stressed to avoid data inconsistencies.
