What could the problem be? We want the text to appear in English when we choose the English description.
Answer:
Please check this and update:
The system determines the language of the material description in VA01 in three steps (FV45PF0M_MAAPV_SELECT):
DA_SPRAS = KUAGV-SPRAS. <= comm. language of sold-to
IF DA_SPRAS = SPACE.
DA_SPRAS = TVKO_SADR-SPRAS. <= language of sales organization
ENDIF.
IF DA_SPRAS = SPACE.
DA_SPRAS = SY-LANGU. <= logon language
ENDIF.
So , you first take the sold-to party language and if a description of the material exists in this language, you get the material description in that language.
If no material description is maintained for the sold-to party lang. the system will use the language of the sales organisation.
If no sales organisation language is maintained, the system will lastly use the login language. Which means if you have maintained Chinese, English description for the material, and if you want to have a Chinese description for the material in the sale order, please login by selecting Chinese language. You will get the description in the Chinese.
