Summary :
SAP systems support Arabic-script languages, such as Urdu and Persian, only in Unicode environments. The required platform is SAP Web Application Server 6.20 or higher, with specific Unicode configurations detailed on SAP's official Unicode service site. Kernel release 6.40 provides the necessary support for the correct display and printing of ABAP lists in Arabic-script, including right-to-left (RTL) layouts supported from SAP GUI for Windows release 6.20 onwards. However, the SAP GUI for Java doesn't support Arabic languages. SAPScript and Smartforms require MS Word for document editing in Arabic, with certain limitations on right alignment solved in subsequent patches. Printing and display configurations across various SAPGUI releases vary, necessitating reference to specific SAP Notes for detailed implementation guidelines.
