Text Pools
You can store headings, labels of input fields on
selection screens, and other texts of particular ABAP programs as
text elements in text pools for different languages. Text pools are supported for the following
program types:
The text pool from which these types of ABAP programs retrieve their texts depends on the logon language, a secondary language, or can also be specified during program execution.
- When a program is loaded into an internal session, the text elements of the text pool for the
logon language are loaded by default. If this text pool is not available, the text pool for the language that is specified in
profile parameter
zcsa/second_language is used. If neither of these text pools exists, an empty text pool with no text elements is loaded.
- The SET LANGUAGE statement can be used during program execution to load a text pool for another language.
Notes
- With global classes and
function groups, the
text pools are assigned to the relevant framework program, which has a different name in the repository than the class or function group.
- For more information about maintaining text elements in the ABAP Workbench, see also Text Elements.
