Changing Description of field globally

If we need to rename one field for e.g: Project Code, it has to be done in each and every form and user wise where as the requirement is of changing the description of field globally for all the users.

CTRL double click will allow you to rename the field, and this will apply to all users, but will have to be done in every form.
there are many occasions where we want to change names in only one or two forms, so would not like to see this applied to every form automatically...

Changing descriptive flex field value

I have looked and looked through the flexfield functions in the administrative responsibilities and cannot find the field I'm looking for to change the label for a flexfield. The navigation path to get to the flexfield is below:
AR RECEIVABLES MANAGER responsibility > COLLECTIONS > CUSTOMER ACCOUNTS > ENTER CUST # and find > CLICK CUSTOMER BUTTON > CLICK DFF FIELD IN UPPER RIGHT TO VIEW FLEXFIELDS
Can someone tell me how I can find the descriptive flexfield's name (Help->Diagnostics maybe?) and search for this thing to change it? Which fields do I need to search for in which form? I have tried searching everything I know to search.
Thanks!

Let me try to help you.
Why I did was drilled down to DFF in Application Developer Responsibility.
1) Flexfields --> Descriptive --> Register.
2) Query for "Receivables" in Application Field and "Customer Information" in the Title field.
If you wana see the segments for the particular DFF
1) Flexfields --> Descriptive --> Segments.
2) Query for "Receivables" in Application Field and "Customer Information" in the Title field.
3) Segments Button. Before you change the name the segment or add additional segment Uncheck Freeze Flexfield Definition
Let me know if its good enough.

The system always asks with the description of the field you refer to with the parameter variable in the select statement.
I sometimes defined a UDT only for getting the appropriate title in the parameter entering window. The table has no data; I used it only for its field names.
(The parameter request can be placed inside a comment and the entered value is used setting an SQL variable like this:
declare @d datetime
/*select t.createdate from ordr t where t.createdate=[%0]*/
set @d=[%0]
This SQL variable can be used later in the real query.)
(But then you loose the possibility to choose from the u2018List of existing valuesu2019

Change Description of Service Item default value

Hello
in a service SC, on the item detail basic data, we want to change the default value of the field "Description of Service Item ". by default it is "Service Item" and we want to change it.
Where can I change it excepted in BADI BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI
thanks,

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ? What is your business requirement ? Do you want to change Service Item description value for every line item in the shopping cart OR
the permanent text displayed on the Left side on the HTML Template.. ?
<b>Incase you want to modify the HTML template Text, then it can be done using HTML Template modification.</b>
Using Transaction SE80, In the Internet Service - BBPSC01, you need to find the relevant HTML Template and make the required chnages to the Description there as per your business requirements.
All BBPSC* transaction are using the HTML sources of service BBPSC01.
So you have to modify template SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS_300 from service BBPSC01.
Make sure to publish the complete service on all defined sites so that changes can appear in all respective SRM Client systems.

How to Change the Value Field Type of a Value Field

Hi,
How can I change the value field type from Currency to Quantity of a value field? I have tried to do it in KEA6. I can change the value field and its description, but not the value field type from currency to qty. If I change this config, is there any other changes that I need to make so there is no side issue of this change?

Hi Prem,
Once you created value field as quantity or currency, you can not change this nature of value field. Based on this, system creates lots of data and tables. For this reason system will not allow any changes in quantity or currency.
Alternative way is to remove the old value field and create a new value field assign to operating concern and put all your seetings.
Please let me know if you require any clarifications.
Thank you,

Script for changing InCopy assignment locations globally

I have a book with multiple documents with hundreds of separate stories. I need a script to change the assignment locations globally within the ID document to a single folder. As it stands now, I can only change them one by one using their individual Assignment Options dialogue box in ID. Also, it would be nice to also be able to change the "Assigned to" field to a specific set of person(s).
Someone had written a script a while back for ID2 that did just this but I can't seem to locate it. Not sure it would work with CS3.
Anyone have any ideas?

As Andbrowny asked, have you tried using OS X's Locations? See KB 106653, Using network locations in Mac OS X.
If that doesn't give you the power that you need, checkout Location X.

I need to Import Descriptive Flex Field from EBS to OBIA

Hi
we implemented OBIA 7.9.6.3 as Procurement and Spend Analytics
there is some Descriptive Flex Fields i want to import
for example :
we have DFF on PO_HEADERS carries some information on the POs i need to import it into OBIA Datawarehouse and RPD
So , anyone have an idea to help me in this ?
Thanks
Ahmed

Ahmed,
if you dont want to edit any mapping, then you can populate the data into some un-used column in the ETL and change the name of the column in RPD.
Though this is not a good approach, but you can try this.

Urgent! Change Descriptive FlexField Prompt

Hi!
I need to hide & change prompt for fields that are retrieved from Descriptive FlexField. Personalization need to be done for one responsibility.
Hiding can be done easly with Segment List.
Is there any way how I can change prompt for one responsibility.
BR
Hugo

Hugo,
To my understanding you should not be able to control the Text for various segments without changing the Flexfield definition. And if you do that it gets affected for all responsibilities.
As a suggestion you can use a Context specific to a responsibility and may be use the same combination of segments for the context. Finally data gets stored in same columns, but since u define the context separately you should be able to provide different name.
Hope that gives you clues to work on.
Regards
Sumit

How to change description of released transport request

Hi experts,
The transport requests tasks and are released and owner of TR also released, now need to modify description.
Is their any possible way to do it, because transport is not moved out of the system.
Thanks,
Pavan

Hi
There is one way to achieve this.But this s not advisable.
1.) Got o FM 'TRINT_CHECK_REQUEST_CHANGEABLE'
At the line number 111 IF is_request_header-trstatus CA sctsc_states_released, put the break point.
1.) Double click the released request which you want to change the description.
2.) your EDIT option will be disabled. Just type '/h' in the tcpode area and press enter, your debugging will switched on.
3.) Then Press ENTER again, it will open the debugger screen, in the variable change the SY_UCOMM field to 'WB_DISP_EDIT_TOGGLE' . Then press F8.
4.) your control will be in the FM 'TRINT_CHECK_REQUEST_CHANGEABLE' line number 111. Try to skip this IF condition by using debug technique.
5,) Now you can change the description.Now you cant save this as Save button is disabled.Just press back button, you will get the message for save the changes.Just save it. Done.
Thanks and Regards,
Senthil Kumar Anantham.
