Symptom
- While maintaining a class, there is no translation option available for the “Description” field.
- In the same screen, the “Short Description” field offers a translation option.
Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Learning
Reproducing the Issue
- Open any class (scheduled offering) in Learning administration.
- View the fields for the class and check the “Description” field: no translate option is available.
- Check the “Short Description” field in the same screen: a translate option is available.
Cause
Working as per Current System Design
Resolution
- This behavior is by design: the class “Description” field does not provide a translate option, while “Short Description” does.
