I recently had the requirement to change the text of a standard button like “Edit” in the object page.
We have the following button, and we want to change it from “Bearbeiten” to “Abschliessen”.
Create a folder structure as follow:
When using a List report, then use ListReport instead of ObjectPage.
In our i18n.properties file of that folder, we have defined the following key value pair:
C_COMMON_OBJECT_PAGE_EDIT=AbschliessenNow it depends if you are using an OData V2 app or an OData V4 app?
OData V4
Here it is quite easy to enhance the i18n by simply put in the correct target the property enhanceI18n and set the correct i18n properties file.
manifest.json
"targets": {
"POList": {
"type": "Component",
"id": "POList",
"name": "sap.fe.templates.ListReport",
"options": {
"settings": {
"contextPath": "/PO",
"variantManagement": "Page",
"hideFilterBar": true,
"navigation": {
"PO": {
"detail": {
"route": "POObjectPage"
}
}
},
"controlConfiguration": {
"@com.sap.vocabularies.UI.v1.LineItem": {
"tableSettings": {
"type": "ResponsiveTable",
"selectionMode": "Single"
}
}
}
}
},
"controlAggregation": "beginColumnPages",
"contextPattern": ""
},
"POObjectPage": {
"type": "Component",
"id": "POObjectPage",
"name": "sap.fe.templates.ObjectPage",
"options": {
"settings": {
"editableHeaderContent": false,
"contextPath": "/PO",
"enhanceI18n": "i18n/ObjectPage/PO/i18n.properties",
"controlConfiguration": {
"@com.sap.vocabularies.UI.v1.LineItem": {
"tableSettings": {
"type": "ResponsiveTable",
"selectionMode": "Single"
}
},OData V2
In an OData V2 Fiori App, we need to add a new model with the path to the correct i18n.properties file.
manifest.json
...
"models": {
"i18n": {
"type": "sap.ui.model.resource.ResourceModel",
"settings": {
"bundleName": "myapp.i18n.i18n"
}
},
"": {
"dataSource": "mainService",
"preload": true,
"settings": {
"operationMode": "Server",
"autoExpandSelect": true,
"earlyRequests": true
}
},
"i18n|sap.suite.ui.generic.template.ObjectPage|PO": {
"type": "sap.ui.model.resource.ResourceModel",
"uri": "i18n/ObjectPage/PO/i18n.properties"
},
"@i18n": {
"type": "sap.ui.model.resource.ResourceModel",
"uri": "i18n/i18n.properties"
}
},
