  The SAP error message ET014 "No texts to be translated from &1 into &2" typically occurs in the context of translation work in SAP, particularly when using the translation tools or when trying to generate translation files. This error indicates that there are no texts available for translation from the source language (&1) to the target language (&2).
  Cause:
  
  No Texts Available: The most common cause is that there are no texts marked for translation in the specified source language.
  Incorrect Language Settings: The source or target language may not be correctly set in the translation tool or transaction.
  Missing Translation Entries: The texts that need to be translated may not have been created or may not exist in the system.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the texts for translation.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Texts: Verify that there are indeed texts available for translation in the source language. You can do this by checking the relevant objects (e.g., programs, screens, messages) in the source language.
  Language Settings: Ensure that the source and target languages are correctly set in the translation tool or transaction. You can check this in the translation transaction (e.g., SE63).
  Create Missing Texts: If there are texts that need to be translated but do not exist, you may need to create them in the source language first.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform translations. This may involve checking roles and permissions in the SAP system.
  Use Transaction SE63: Use transaction SE63 (Translation) to manage translations and check for any inconsistencies or missing entries.
