Changing field labels for JP29

Hello friends,
In transaction JP29 there are several field labels I want to change. I think I have to go to the MARA table and make the changes here, but I'm not sure where to do this.(trans se11 -> utilities-> database Utility?) In the test-system the labels are correct, but in production they are different, so I guess I have to make the changes in the production system?... I would appreciate any comments...
Regards Baljinder

Hi

Kindly note that changes made here will be effective in
whole system, itz not specific to one data dictionary
object. Please understand the impact before making any
changes to SAP standard dictionary elements.

Changing field label for standard select option

Hi All,
I need to change the label for one of the standard select option for the custom report category.
the field is PNPSTAT1 - original label is - Customer-Specific Status - which i need to change as per customer requirement.
Can anyone tell me the way i can do it so that it can be viewed with correct label not only on the selection screen but in further selections mode as well.
Regards,
Raunak

Dear Raunak,
If you have standard select option for standard selection screen:
create a implicit enhancement for any standard program and wrote the below code at the end of the program and it is working..
INITIALIZATION.
%_s_PNPSTAT1%_app_%-text = 'ANY LABEL'.
If you have custom report select option, go to above Ravikiran's procedure.
Best of luck.

Easy way to change field label for all UIs?

How would a customer change a field label for all UIs that use this field/attribute, which is not really a translation?
What I was able to find seems to be that we would need to edit Resource Bundles and that it will be much easier in Release 8:
1. Section More on Resource Bundles in https://blogs.oracle.com/fadevrel/entry/translating_your_customizations has this key passage:
This is an industry open standard (OASIS) format XML file with the extension .xliff, and store translated values for the strings used by ADF at run-time. The general process is that these values are exported from the MDS repository, manually edited, and then imported back in again.This needs to be done by an administrator, via either WLST commands or through Enterprise Manager as per the screenshot below. This is detailed out in the Fusion Applications Extensibility Guide.
2. That blog posting also says this will get easier in Release 8:
Currently planned for Release 8 is something called the User Interface (UI) Text Editor. This tool will allow the editing of all the text shown on the pages and forms of Fusion Application. This will provide a search based on a particular term or word, say “Worker”, and will allow it to be adjusted, say to “Employee”, which then updates all the Resource Bundles that contain it.
3. I found the video How To Customize Field Labels but it seems that is one UI label at a time...

Hi vedette and Uchiha.
while we cannot talk here about features of future releases, rest assured we are working on material that will help you understand and use the functionality, from official documentation to blog posts and videos. Please keep an eye on your blog at https://blogs.oracle.com/fadevrel and our Youtube channel at http://youtube.com/FADeveloperRelations -- as soon as R8 becomes publicly available you can expect to find useful information on those sites, among them a blog post that summarizes new features that are important for developers and then more indepth coverage.
Thanks for your patience.

I've been searching the forum but couldn't find the answer.
Thanks

Thanks Vivek, your answer was very helpful, however that's only to change the application description that goes in ESS overview screen, i want to change the labels that appear within the webdynpro application.
For intance, change the label "Absense Type" by "Type" only.

Document set change field label for "Name"

Hi,
is it possible to change the field names without changing the NewDocSet.aspx form?
I'm want to change the field "Name" to something else.
Thanks,
Peter

This is a very common question, and generally addressed by core ECM/Governance, where the users will view the name of Content Type and accept that the Name is the name of the content.
In undertaking split testing for multiple clients, I found that an overwhelming number of users easily accepted and preferred that the field was left as Name since the Content Type provided the context (Ex. if the Content Type is named Matter,
implicitly you would not need to repeat by having a field named Matter Name since the user knew that they were providing the name of the Matter).
This is a similiar situation as "Title" for a document. If I upload a document and select the appropriate Content Type such as "Summons", I know that I am providing the title of a summons document.
The challenge is not so much technical, but one of core ECM principles for context. I would flush out your Content Types so that they provide the description (ex. Matter, Summon, Pleading, Memo, etc.) and then the "Name" or "Title" fields do not become
a barrier since the user knows that when they select "Matter" as their Content Type, they are entering the "Name" for that "Matter File".

Changing field labels for multiple people.

I am quite new to applescript, so please bear with me.
I am just looking for a script to change a groups phone label to mobile. If anyone could point me in the right direction, or even give me a simple script, it would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't tested this (not quite brave enough), but I'd expect the script to look something like:
tell application 'Address Book"
-- get the people in the group
set thePeople to every person of group "GroupName"
-- iterate through them
repeat with eachPerson in thePeople
  -- get their phone numbers
  set thePhones to every phone of eachPerson
  -- and iterate through the phones
  repeat with eachPhone in thePhones
   -- set the label appropriately
   set label of eachPhone to "Mobile"
  end repeat
end repeat
end tell
Note this does mean if someone has multiple phone numbers they'll all be labelled 'Mobile'. I don't know how you want/expect to address that.

Changing Field Labels of module pool screen dynamically

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me how to change field label of text field in dialog screen dynamically.
The Screen/Transaction is standard one.
I have created a Enhancement point for this change in one of PBO module's subroutine for this screen.
This Field label is defined as a 'Text' field only. We can't change it any more as it is standard one.
Can anybody tell me the solution for the same.
I have to change this label value as per some validations and its corresponding text field value will remain as is.
Thanks,
Deep.

Hello,
I think it is not possible, but try changing the name by Looping on screen table on PBO,
Bye

Changing field labels

I need to change the description of three fields, VKBUR, VKGRP and BZIRK so that the terminolgy aligns iteself with our business processes.
I have used SE80 to modify the Data Elements descriptions, short, mid and long. I have registered the change through SAP.
The changes have been activated. Though the log reported that a number of tables could not be modified because the enhancement category for some obscure tables was missing. Most of the tables were adjusted.
Viewing transaction VA22 - Quotations the sales header screen has the correct new description for only one of the three fields! Why this should be one of three is a mystery.
I think that the structure DD04D is filled with the short, mid and long descriptions.
Any ideas?

Hi Nigel,
You can change field labels, in tx CMOD->Go to->Text Enhancements-> Keyword->Change.
Here you can enter the Data Element of the field you want to change the text, and the language. Also, you should look at the screen where the text field is. Because if the text has the attribute "Modify" to "F" (Fixed), you cannot modify this text.
Thanks
Warm Regards,

Trying to change the labels for some UI elements

hi,
Problem: I am trying to change the labels for some UI elements and transport the views from one server to another server.
the lables show changed in the source server but the changes dont reflect in the destination server
Kidly help me to slove this problem

Hi Sharad
The process is as explained:
1.     Firstly, go to the respective view, and to the Label and then delete the Label Text as
                mentioned in the attribute u2018TEXTu2019 of the Label in the view.
2.     Next, Activate the View, if it asks for a change request, please assign it to a new TR.
3.     Finally give the Label text again and then Save it and activate it.
4.     Further transport the request to ECP and find the difference.
This especially happens when we frequently change the WD Component and embedd it entirely in the Transport.
I hope this information would be of a great help to all of us.
Ponts if helpful.

Change field used for Mailing Labels

Hi. I am a new Mac user and I need help with mailing labels. When I print my labels, I want to use a custom field - Label Name - as the first line on the label, rather than the name of the contact. Is there a way to do this? For example, I might have a contact name of Joe Johnson, but I will have The Johnsons as his Label Name for sending holiday cards, etc. I don't want to change all my contact names to these appropriate label names. Is there a way to configure the mailing label to print the custom field rather than the first and last name? Thanks for your help.

I have this same complaint. Prior to Snow Leopard, there was a feature in Address Book that automatically combined the name on an address book entry with a related name (spouse). I used that feature and adjusted my Address Book so that it worked for me. Unfortunately Apple deleted the feature in Snow Leopard without giving a reason or a tenable workaround. See kb article #HT3952 for details.
I imagine the feature was deleted because it was somewhat surprising and confusing. Still it WAS a feature and there IS NO WORKAROUND. I investigated writing an AppleScript, but decided it probably couldn't be done. I ended up printed labels this year using a kludgey mail merge with Microsoft Word. A lot of work and still not fully satisfactory.
Apple, please add a feature to replace the old method!

Changing Field Label length for Data Element using ABAP code.

Hi Experts,
We have a scenario where we have to update the maximum length of the various Field Labels (Short, Medium, Long..) for a Data Element using ABAP code.
Does anyone know how to do this ? Is there a Function Module available for this purpose ?
Appreciate your valuable inputs.

Hi ,
Use the view
DD03M
Give
TABNAME as table name,
DDLANGUAGE = EN / sy-langu
and order by position. (for correct sequencing)
You will get description of the fields (short,medium, long etc). You will also get the length and other details.

When I access in tab: Sales: Sales Org 2, I can see one Group that it's called

2.- How can I add more fields in this group...example..If I need to add MVKE.MVGR2 ..??

Alice

Hi Alice,
And do I need to change in this section too.... SPRO -> SAP Reference IMG -> Logistics general -> Material master -> configuring the material master -> ...
If I need to add some values???
After you made label changes on custom screen then you need to go configuration (Define Structure of Data Screens for Each Screen Sequence) to replace the standard SAP screen with custom screen. You can also do testing for custom subscreen as well. Give it try.
And how about If I move this screen??...is it dangerous??...or how can I know if this screen affect other section of programs?
I do not understand your questions. Can you elaborate more?

How do you change fields labels in adf query please ?

Hello , I would like to change the field labels in an adf query as they have been generated by default by oracle .
The only code found is as follows :

if you use ADF BC, set the UI Hints on the View Object attributes for the attributes and these will make the labels
