  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCPR720 - Language &1 (&2) in BC Set &3 is not a system language ?

    The SAP error message SCPR720 indicates that there is an issue with a Business Configuration Set (BC Set) where a specified language is not recognized as a system language. This typically occurs when you are trying to import or activate a BC Set that contains data or configurations in a language that is not installed or supported in your SAP system.

    Cause:

    1. Unsupported Language: The language specified in the BC Set is not installed in your SAP system. For example, if the BC Set is configured in a language like French (FR) and your system only supports English (EN) and German (DE), you will encounter this error.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The BC Set may have been incorrectly configured to reference a language that is not part of the system's language settings.
    3. Missing Language Packs: The necessary language packs may not have been installed in the SAP system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Installed Languages: Verify the languages installed in your SAP system. You can do this by navigating to transaction code SMLT (Language Transport) and checking the list of installed languages.
    2. Install Missing Language: If the language referenced in the BC Set is not installed, you may need to install the required language pack. This can typically be done through the SAP Software Download Center or by using the appropriate transport requests.
    3. Modify BC Set: If installing the language is not feasible, consider modifying the BC Set to use a language that is already supported in your system. This may involve changing the language settings in the configuration or creating a new BC Set with the correct language.
    4. Consult Documentation: Review the documentation for the specific BC Set you are working with to ensure that you are using it correctly and that it is compatible with your system's language settings.
