SAP Translation Hub
What SAP Translation Hub is
SAP Translation Hub translates custom applications, extensions, documentation, and other content into multiple languages through language-data reuse and AI-driven machine translation. Its Multilingual Text Repository offers standard SAP translations in more than 40 languages. Developers, local key users, and subject-matter experts can generate, share, review, and edit translations in the cloud application. Document Translation handles documents and text using machine translation trained on SAP data, while glossary tools let users define important terms and reduce manual corrections. SAP says the service integrates with SAP cloud and on-premise products and provides public APIs for customer applications. Language availability depends on the translation provider, and some source-target combinations may return no translation. Use requires an SAP Business Technology Platform account in a supported region. The Free plan costs nothing for 500,000 characters monthly; other listed plans measure usage in 100,000-character blocks.

It suits SAP customers, developers, localization teams, and subject-matter experts working on multilingual SAP content. The test, demo, and development edition is limited to partners for non-productive, non-commercial use.
