Background about language classification

All information regarding language availability can be found in the Product Availability

Matrix (PAM) under Technical Release Information Languages Product Instance Display link in Additional Information

Regarding language availability, SAP differentiates between the following target groups:

End User: The languages listed in the PAM refer to the availability of languages in the User

Interface of each application. These end user-relevant GUIs are translated into all supported

languages according to the country-specific requirements.

Administrators: All tools for administrators are available in English, German, French, and

Japanese. Administration Tools do not contain any content intended for the end users of

business applications.

Developers: All tools for developers are available in English. E.g. ABAP Workbench

applications, such as tools for development, testing, and analysis, plus additional support

tools, and methods for modifying or enhancing code.

SAP Browser Release Strategy

SAP Vendor-Synchronized Policy

Valid for Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Safari desktop

versions

SAP supports new browser versions at the same time as the

browser vendor Exception: for Safari, SAP intends to support a new browser version within 3 months after

vendor release date, as the release date is not known in advance

SAP supports a browser version as long as it is supported by

the vendor

SAP proactively tests new browser versions and implements

fixes in the last released SP (minimum required SP) of the respective SAP product release at the time of the browser

release date. Additional corrections may have to be applied as

a prerequisite for using the new browser version

SAP publishes exceptions, restrictions and required support

packs in the Product Availability Matrix.
