• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UIF/LREP_CONNEC_MSG015 - Target language (&1) is the same as the source language ?

  The SAP error message /UIF/LREP_CONNEC_MSG015 indicates that the target language specified for a translation or language-related operation is the same as the source language. This situation typically arises in translation-related transactions or processes where a user attempts to translate text from one language to another, but both languages are identical.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system does not allow a translation operation where the source and target languages are the same. This is a logical restriction since translating text from a language to itself does not make sense.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Check Language Settings: Ensure that you have selected different languages for the source and target. For example, if your source language is English (EN), your target language should be a different language, such as German (DE) or French (FR).
  
  
  Modify the Translation Request: If you are using a translation tool or transaction, go back to the settings or parameters and change the target language to one that is different from the source language.
  
  
  Review Translation Process: If you are working with a translation process that involves multiple steps, ensure that each step has the correct language settings.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Translation Transactions: This error is commonly encountered in transactions related to translation management, such as SE63 (Translation: Texts) or SE77 (Transport of Copies).
  Language Codes: Familiarize yourself with the language codes used in SAP to avoid confusion when selecting languages.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may provide additional context or updates regarding translation processes.
  
  By ensuring that the source and target languages are different, you should be able to proceed without encountering this error.
