• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 6G060 - Original language same as logon language ?

  The SAP error message 6G060 with the description "Original language same as logon language" typically occurs when there is an attempt to create or modify a document or record in SAP, and the system detects that the original language of the document is the same as the logon language of the user. This can happen in various contexts, such as when dealing with translations or language-specific data entries.
  Cause:
  
  Language Settings: The error is primarily caused by a mismatch or redundancy in language settings. The system expects the original language of the document to differ from the logon language.

  Change Logon Language: If possible, log in with a different language that is not the same as the original language of the document you are trying to create or modify.
  Adjust Document Language: If you have control over the document, change its original language to a different one before proceeding with the operation.
