  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KZ012 - No text exists in language & ?

    The SAP error message KZ012 ("No text exists in language &") typically indicates that the system is trying to access a text or description in a specific language, but there is no entry available for that language in the relevant table or configuration.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Language-Specific Text: The most common cause is that the text for the specified language has not been maintained in the relevant master data or configuration settings.
    2. Incorrect Language Settings: The user’s language settings may not match the available texts in the system.
    3. Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system, some language texts may not have been transferred correctly.
    4. Custom Development: If there are custom programs or enhancements, they may not have been properly configured to handle multiple languages.

    Solution:

    1. Maintain Texts:

      • Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., for material master, you would use MM01/MM02) and check if the text for the specified language exists. If not, you can add the necessary text.
      • For configuration texts, navigate to the relevant customizing transaction (e.g., SPRO) and ensure that the texts are maintained for the required language.
    2. Check Language Settings:

      • Verify the user’s language settings in the user profile. You can check this in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) under the "Defaults" tab.
      • Ensure that the language you are trying to access is supported and available in the system.
    3. Review Data Migration:

      • If the issue arose after a data migration, review the migration process to ensure that all necessary texts were included and correctly mapped.
    4. Custom Development Review:

      • If the error is occurring in a custom program, review the code to ensure that it correctly handles language texts and that the necessary texts are available in the database.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Check SAP documentation or notes related to the specific module or transaction you are working with for any additional guidance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Depending on where the error occurs, you may need to use different transaction codes (e.g., MM01, MM02, SPRO).
    • Language Codes: Familiarize yourself with the language codes used in SAP (e.g., EN for English, DE for German) to understand which language is being referenced in the error message.
    • SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes in the SAP Support Portal that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
