How To Fix SKTY018 - Confirmation of translation not necessary or already made

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SKTY - Übersetzung: Kurztexte

• Message number: 018

• Message text: Confirmation of translation not necessary or already made

What causes this issue?

You have tried to confirm the translation of a text. This is not
necessary in this case, either because no confirmation was required or
because the you had already confirmed the translation.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Confirmation of a translation can be required if a source text already
has a translation, but there is no entry in the proposal pool.
To tell the system that the previously not known translation is correct,
you must either confirm or change the translation. In both cases you
declare the translation to be a valid translation of the source text and
cause a corresponding entry to be made in the proposal pool.

System Response

How to fix this error?

Check whether the text requires other actions. If so, perform them. The
'Confirm translation' function which you chose is not, or no longer,
required in the current situation and has no effect.
