• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FPB_LAUNCHPAD_CUST020 - Text is not available in logon language, see long text ?

  The SAP error message FPB_LAUNCHPAD_CUST020 indicates that there is a problem with the availability of text in the user's logon language. This typically occurs when the system is unable to find the necessary text or translations for certain elements in the user interface, particularly in the context of the SAP Fiori Launchpad or other applications that rely on language-specific texts.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Translations: The most common cause is that the required text for the specified language is not available in the system. This can happen if the language has not been fully configured or if certain texts have not been translated.
  Language Settings: The user's logon language may not be supported or properly set up in the system.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments or enhancements, they may not have been translated into the user's logon language.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Language Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the required language is installed and activated in the SAP system. You can check this in transaction SMLT (Language Transport).
  Verify that the language is set correctly in the user profile (transaction SU01).
  
  
  
  Translation Maintenance:
  
  If you have access, you can use transaction SE63 (Translation) to check if the necessary texts are available for the specific language. If not, you may need to create or update translations.

  Fallback Language:
  
  If the text is not available in the user's logon language, SAP may fall back to a default language (usually English). Ensure that the fallback mechanism is functioning correctly.
