Summary :
SAP Note addresses the issue where F1 help for data elements or message long texts is missing in the original language (German or English) or in their translations. When users log on in either German or English and activate F1 help, they may either see only a short description without the long text, or the F1 help appears in a non-logon language. The prerequisites confirm that the data elements have been established, and the documentation is not just a supplementary feature. As a fix, it is necessary to first create documentation in the original language followed by its translation. The tasks involve using transaction SE61 for creating documentation and SE63 for translations.
Key words :
missing message long text, message long text reason, creating data element documentation, message long text, upper screen area, start transaction se61, start transaction se63, lower editor area, data element supplement, data element documentation
