BOM Item Text/Long Text

Hi Gurus,
I want to change a BOM and update/create the BOM Item text/Long text. I just want to change the BOM and create an item text (If the text is more than 80 chars, then I should be able to create a long text).
I tried using FMs SAVE_TEXT and CREATE_TEXT without much luck. Could someone throw some light on how to achieve this.
R

Thanks Sudheer. Yes, I'm passing the correct parameters. Please see below.
        CONCATENATE sy-mandt ls_stpo-stlty ls_stpo-stlnr
                                 ls_stpo-stlkn ls_stpo-stpoz
          INTO lf_tdname.
          CALL FUNCTION 'CREATE_TEXT'
            EXPORTING
              fid       = 'MPO'
              flanguage = sy-langu
              fname     = lf_tdname
              fobject   = 'BOM'
            TABLES
              flines    = lt_lines
            EXCEPTIONS
              no_init   = 1
              no_save   = 2
              OTHERS    = 3.
The thing is that it should save the text in Line1 and line 2 of the item text if the length is less than 80. I assume that the TEXT Fms will do it for me. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I have also tried a direct database update by changing the stpo-ltxsp field. No luck again. Did someone has updated/created the text using this method ?

CATS Short Text & Long Text

Hello Experts,
How are "Short Text" and "Long text" used in CATS? I thought that these were supposed to be two separate text fields, but when I make an entry in the Long text field, the value shows up in the Short Text field.
Are these two separate fields? Any ideas how to use both Short Text and Long text and not have the value copied from one to the other?

Hi,
You can Create a rule in Alert Configuration based on the <b>error code</b> under "where did the error occur".
Based on this you can trigger the required Alert category.

Translate Custom (Z infoobject ) short text/long text

Hello ,
Scenario:
When the user (with the logon language French) run the report via Portal, instead of displaying the text of the custom info object (selection screen) in French, it just displays the technical name of the info object.
Request:
Please let me know if any body done the language translation for the scenario above.
I appreciate your input.
Thanks
Ram

Hi,
there are no french texts. You must create it.
Use the transaction SLWB to translate the texts.

BAPI_SERVNOT_ADD_DATA-update long text of activities in Change Notification

Hi All,
I am trying to use this "BAPI-BAPI_SERVNOT_ADD_DATA" call to change a Service Notification.
The partners,activities get updated. I am unable to update the long text of each of the actvities item.
I am using the following code to update the longtext.
Defects/activities table
data: activities like table of bapi2080_notactvi with header line.
long text table
data: longtext like table of bapi2080_notfulltxti with header line.
*partnr table
data: notifpartnr like table of bapi2080_notpartnri with header line,
        longtext-objtype = 'QMFE'.
        longtext-objkey = activities-act_sort_no.(item # of the activity)
        longtext-format_col = 'U1'.
        longtext-text_line = zwin-misc_text1.
        append longtext.
        longtext-format_col = 'U1'.
        longtext-text_line = zwin-misc_text2.
        append longtext.
        longtext-format_col = 'U1'.
        longtext-text_line = zwin-misc_text3.
        append longtext.
call function 'BAPI_SERVNOT_ADD_DATA'
    exporting
      number                  = zwin-qmnum
I_BAPI                  = ' '
IMPORTING
NOTIFHEADER             =
NOTIFHDTEXT             =
   tables
   notfulltxt               = longtext
NOTITEM                 =

KEY_RELATIONSHIPS       =
     return                 = lt_return
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Neil,
Thanks for the update. The issue has been resolved.
The BAPI- 'BAPI_SERVNOT_ADD_DATA'   cannot be used to update the item long text. (activities long text ) . The length of the object key is only 8 characters.
I used the following function module('IQS0_ADD_ACTIVITY_LONGTEXT') to update the item>>activties>> long text after the BAPI call to 'BAPI_SERVNOT_ADD_DATA' .
data: v_line like table of tline with header line.
call function 'IQS0_ADD_ACTIVITY_LONGTEXT'
             exporting
               i_qmnum             = wa_qmnum
               i_manum             = wa_item_no
               i_post              = 'X'
                I_RESET             =
             tables
               t_inlines           = v_line
              EXCEPTIONS
                SHOW_MESSAGES       = 1
                OTHERS              = 2
The call to 'BAPI_SERVNOT_ADD_DATA' took care of all changes to the Notification except the update of the item>> long text. After committing this transaction, I did a BAP call to 'IQS0_ADD_ACTIVITY_LONGTEXT' to update the item>>actvities>>long text.. This has been working fine and is currently in productin.
Appreciate all your feedback .
Thanks
Mala

To Display the whole long text on a report display

Hi All,
Pls let me know how can i display the full long text in a column of a report display. I am getting the long text from the function module READ_TEXT.
This is very urgent
Thanx in advance
Suresh

Do you have a fixed column width. If so, do you want to break the text up into lengths of that fixed length.
Example...
<b>Sales Order Item Material Long Text</b>
123456       10    6000000   This is the long
                             text of the material
                             6000000 for the
                             sales order 123456.

Operation 010 is confirmed by the user with confirmation text (long text )which is incorrect ,now without reversing/cancelling the confirmation need to delete this confirmation text /long tex.t IW43 displayPM order confirmation screen.Need to know how it can be done any suggestion.

Hi,
it is not possible to delete and change the long textof confirmation through standard without any custom development. You will have to reverse the confirmation and re-enter the confirmation.That would be the easiest way to do this.

Difference betwen short text and long text

Hi,
what is the difference between short text, long text and variant.

Hi,
Short text is the short description you give for an object or field simlarly long text is the long description for a object or field.
Short text cannot have lenght more than 20 and long text more than 60.
Variant means for example if you give certain values as an input in one of your transaction for testing and you want the same values to be used every time you test in that particular screen, then instead of inputting the values again n again you call the variant.
Hope this helps

Modifying the lengh of a long text field- Crystal Report version 2011

Hello,
I'm having a problem with the long text field in my crystal report.
I'll desribe the problem:
We work with BW version 7.4 sp 5.
I created a BEX Report with an infobject of type Long Text (Long Text is XL).
I know the length of this field is 1,333 char.
When I run the Bex Report the field is displayed correctly (long text).
I then created a Crystal Report 2011 version 14.0.6.1036 RTM based on my BEX Query.
The problem is that the Crystal report brought this database long text field as a
String[70]. Thus I get only the first 70 characters of the field.
Can we modify the settings of the field to enlarge it to be 1,333 characters in
length?
Thank you,
Ayelet

Hi Jothi,
Short Text and Long Text are associated objects of a Characteristic from a BEx query.
The 'Short Text' will not turn to 'Long Text' by setting the 'Can Grow' option.
In Fact, both are completely different objects.

How to load long text in BOM line item

Hello Experts
How do i load Long text in BOM Line item using LSMW
Thanks
S
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Jan 31, 2008 5:11 PM

Use Read_text function module.
you need to pass
ID
LANGUAGE
NAME
OBJECT to the function moduel
To find the Text id name language and object these are the following steps. Example: FB02
1. goto FB02, Enter Document number
2. from menuselect Goto>Header-->header Text..... New window will be displayed
3. select the Header Text. here you can see all the text.
4. click on the TEXT (which you want to know the Text id) , then press log ICON (you can find in bottom right of the text window) it looks like a rolled paper.
5. in the Next window you will find Text Name. Text ID, Language. etc...
