Launchpad, PWA & Mobile Client Language settings

There are various approaches to managing the login language for Launchpads, PWAs, and mobile clients. If SAP User Default is chosen in the settings, then the DYL user parameter will be used if present, otherwise the standard language set in SAP transaction SU3 will be used. The URL parameter sap-language can also be used to set the language. See the following documentation for the different supported scenarios.

Default Language with Fallback

Choose SAP User Default and/or Browser default, to let the browser control the language in the login screen. The browser may have a list of languages in order of priority, which Neptune will attempt to use.

If none of the browser languages are installed in the SAP system, then the fallback language will be used. Once a user logs in, the language specified in their SU3 user settings will be used. If default language is not maintained in SU3, the default SAP system language will be used.

If the sap-language URL parameter is set, it will be given precedence.

Dedicated Language

It is possible to set a dedicated language to be used on the login screen, Launchpad and applications. If the sap-language URL parameter is set, it will be used instead of the dedicated language.

Default Language with Selection of Languages and Fallback

It is possible to provide users with a selection of languages to choose from on the login screen. If the default SAP language is set to SAP User Default and/or Browser Default, the system will attempt to use the language specified in the browser. If none of the browser languages are among the selected languages, then the fallback language will be used.

launchpad language 3

If the sap-language URL parameter is specified, it will take priority over the browser language. The language specified in sap-language must be one of the languages in the selection, otherwise the fallback language will be used.

Dedicated Language with Selection of Languages

It is possible to provide users with a selection of languages to choose from on the login screen. If a specific language has been designated as the default language, it will be the language that is automatically selected. If the sap-language URL parameter is specified, it will be set as the selected language. The language specified in sap-language must be one of the languages in the selection, otherwise the set dedicated language will be used as if the sap-language URL parameter was not present.
