• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EM074 - Documentation is displayed in language "EN" ?

  The SAP error message EM074 indicates that the documentation is being displayed in English ("EN") instead of the user's preferred language. This can occur for various reasons, typically related to user settings or system configurations.
  Cause:
  
  User Profile Settings: The user's language settings in their SAP profile may not be set correctly. If the preferred language is not specified or is set to a language that is not supported, the system defaults to English.
  System Configuration: The SAP system may not have the necessary language packs installed or configured properly, leading to a fallback to English.
  Transaction-Specific Settings: Certain transactions or modules may not have documentation available in the user's preferred language, resulting in English being displayed as the default.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Profile Settings:
  
  Go to the user profile settings in SAP (transaction code SU01).
  Check the "Defaults" tab to ensure that the "Logon Language" is set to the desired language.
  If necessary, change the language and save the settings.
  
  
  
  Verify Language Availability:
  
  Ensure that the required language packs are installed in the SAP system. This can be checked by the system administrator.
  If the language pack is missing, it may need to be installed or configured.
  
  
  
  Transaction-Specific Language Settings:
  
  If the issue is specific to a certain transaction, check if the documentation for that transaction is available in the desired language.
  You may need to consult with your SAP Basis team to ensure that all necessary translations are available.
  
  
  
  Log Off and Log Back In:
  
  After making changes to the user profile or system settings, log off from SAP and log back in to see if the changes take effect.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
