Copy purchase order text to production order text

Question

Hello,
purchase order text should be copied to production order text so that the end user can see and edit the text before saving the production order. I'm trying to do it with exit PPCO0006. I can read the purchase order text with read_text but cannot show it on prod order long text tab page. And cannot save it because the production order does not have a number yet.
How should this be done? If I copy the text to clipboard can it be pasted to production order long text somehow? Or is there a long text object in production order which I could call and insert the text in it? Or what?

Hi,
The problem is solved.
In SD side, there's a transaction VOTXN. Change the configuration for Sales Order Item.
Add a Text ID 0006 (Production Memo) in Textprocedure with Access Sequence 21 (Material Sales).
In Access Sequence 21, map Text Object VBBP (Sales Order Item Text) to ID 0006 (Production Memo).
Save it.
When you create your sales order, in the item text level, you'll be able to see an additional text type of Production Memo. Enter your text here and save the sales order. When production order for this Sales Order is created, Production Memo tab will automatically appear (as mentioned by Peter earlier).
Thanks.
