  The SAP error message /PM0/ABU_IBC_MSG223 Template &1(&2): Template text is not available in logon language &3 typically indicates that a specific template text is not available in the language that the user is currently logged in with. This can occur in various SAP modules, particularly in the context of templates used for reporting, forms, or other document generation processes.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Language Translations: The template text has not been translated into the user's logon language. This can happen if the template was created in a different language and the translations were not provided for all languages.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Template Translations:
  
  Go to the transaction code where the template is defined (e.g., SE78 for forms, SE71 for SAPscript, or SFP for Adobe forms).
  Verify if the template has translations available for the user's logon language. If not, you may need to create or update the translations.
  
  
  
  Change Logon Language:
  
  If possible, change the logon language to one that has the template text available. This can be done by logging out and selecting a different language at the logon screen.
  
  
  
  Update Template:
  
  If you have the necessary authorizations, you can add the missing translations for the template text in the appropriate language.
