Material Master Translation for SAP®

Creates material masters and translates them in the background — consistent terminology company-wide, with no rework.

The material master translation add-on enables straightforward creation of material masters in SAP with translations generated automatically in the background, in the languages you need. Your company then uses consistent wording — and saves considerable time in maintenance.

Translation processes accelerate and the error rate drops noticeably; customer communication stays consistent thanks to unified terminology. Interfaces to external systems are easy to adapt, and complete product catalogues can be translated. The built-in delta logic finds only changed or new texts — so not everything is retranslated each time.

Which texts are provided

  • Material short and long texts from the SAP ERP material master (included in the base version)
  • Sales texts for the material master (optional)
  • Document info records (optional)
  • A variable part for individual additional texts, such as dimensions (optional)
  • Product catalogue long and short texts for SAP ERP product catalogue hierarchies, e.g. for e-commerce use (optional)
  • Additional product texts for the material in the product catalogue (optional)
  • Texts for classes and characteristics of the SAP classification system (optional)

In addition we offer an independent Java-based editing tool for translating material master texts outside SAP — including optional machine translation. Marketing departments, product data providers or translation agencies can work directly with your data and return it in the right format. Thanks to the architecture, customer-specific adaptations are quick and inexpensive to implement.

Rather see it once than read it three times?

We will show you the tool in an online demo based on your own scenario — or on site at your premises.
