• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COM_TEXT207 - Text was deleted, since no additional language available ?

  The SAP error message COM_TEXT207 ("Text was deleted, since no additional language available") typically occurs when a text entry in a particular language is attempted to be accessed or displayed, but that language version of the text does not exist in the system. This can happen in various contexts, such as when dealing with material master data, sales documents, or other objects that can have multilingual text.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Language Version: The primary cause of this error is that the text for the specified object (e.g., material, customer, vendor) is not available in the requested language. SAP supports multiple languages, and if a text entry is created in one language but not in others, attempting to access it in a non-existent language will trigger this error.
  Text Deletion: If the system detects that there is no text available in the requested language, it may automatically delete the text entry for that language, leading to this error message.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Language Settings: Ensure that the language you are trying to access is correctly set in your user profile. You can check this in the user settings (transaction SU01) under the "Defaults" tab.
  Create Missing Texts: If the text is indeed missing for the required language, you will need to create it. This can typically be done through the relevant transaction for the object you are working with (e.g., MM01 for material master, VD01 for customer master).
  Use a Different Language: If creating the text is not feasible, consider using a different language that has the text available.
  Check Text Management Settings: Ensure that the text management settings in your SAP system are configured correctly to handle multilingual texts.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Depending on the object type, you may use different transaction codes to manage texts. For example:
  
  MM01: Create Material
  MM02: Change Material
  VD01: Create Customer
  VD02: Change Customer
  
  
  Language Key: Each text entry in SAP is associated with a language key. Make sure that the language key you are trying to access corresponds to an existing entry.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to text management and multilingual support.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for more details on managing texts and multilingual settings.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the COM_TEXT207 error and ensure that the necessary texts are available in the required languages.
