SUMMARY
Based on some inconveniences identified within a material master data application of theSAP MM module, the current paper proposes an alternative technical solution for designing thepopup layout screen of the material master data application with respect to language dependency.The application should present the text of all tabs, areas and fields in the desired language based onthe user logon preferences. Also it has been implemented a possibility to sort the data in the desiredorder, so the customer isn’t forced, as before, to search for a certain field, when updating certainmaterials. The proposed solution suggests the use of five database tables, combined within threemaintenance views, which build a view cluster. The advantage of the redesigned application consistsof easier maintainability of the data (fields, areas and tabs can be easily added, deleted, reorderedand renamed) and all the data within the view cluster can be translated into any language supportedby the system.
