Summary :
SAP systems configured as non-Unicode on Linux may encounter display issues with certain Japanese characters when using system language JP (Japanese). This problem specifically arises on Linux application servers and does not affect other platforms like HP-UX. The issues pertain mainly to characters not supported in specific Japanese code pages like SHIFT_JIS. Non-supported characters can only be properly displayed by installing the SAP system in Unicode. For Linux distributions, various SAP-supported locales such as ja_JP.SJIS and ja_JP.SAPSJIS are listed, citing their availability with specific Linux versions and requisite packages like saplocales and sap-locale distributed through operating system vendors.
