  SAP Error Message: WZ601
  Text:
  
  Text & does not exist in language &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to access a text object (such as a description, long text, or any text element) in a specific language, but the text does not exist or has not been maintained in that language.
  
  The placeholder & represents the text object identifier or name.
  The second & represents the language key (e.g., EN for English, DE for German).
  
  In other words, the system is looking for a text in a particular language, but it cannot find it because it was never created or maintained.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When displaying or processing master data, documents, or customizing objects that have language-dependent texts.
  During translation or language switch scenarios.
  When a program or transaction tries to read a text in a language that is not maintained.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain the missing text in the required language:
  
  Use the appropriate transaction or customizing path to maintain the text in the missing language.
  For example, if it is a material description, use transaction MM02 or MM03 to maintain the description in the required language.
  For customizing texts, use the relevant IMG activity or transaction (e.g., SE63 for translations).
  
  
  
  Check language settings:
  
  Verify if the user logon language or the language settings in the system are correct.
  If the language is not supported or not maintained, consider adding the language or adjusting the language settings.
  
  
  
  Fallback language:
  
  If the text is not available in the requested language, the system can be configured to use a fallback language (usually English).
  Check if fallback language settings are properly configured in the system.
  
  
  
  Translation tools:
  
  Use transaction SE63 (SAP Translation Hub) to translate and maintain texts in different languages.
