Delivery address of a PO has German display for PO Box

Hi Experts,
Delivery address of a Purchase Order has the German display for PO Box .
This happens when the user tries to get the print Purchase Order.
In print preview , everyhting is in English except PO Box (showing like postfatch(German word for PO Box))in the delivery address.
Pl Help me to resolve the issue.
Thanks!

For your reference, I am pasting the text in this note
Symptom
When you print foreign addresses, the word "Postfach" (PO box) does not appear in the language of the recipient or the recipient country but rather in another language, for example, in the logon language, or always in English (PO box).
When several documents are printed in succession, the word "Postfach" may also be printed in the language used in the previous document.
Other terms
Postfach, PO box, abroad, SAPLSADR
BAS_PRINT
Reason and Prerequisites
The most common cause is that the word "Postfach" is not translated for the corresponding language.
The word "Postfach" is stored as numbered text in program SAPLSADR.
In function module ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM, the text is read using the ABAP command SET LANGUAGE.
Normally, the word "Postfach" is written in the language of the
recipient, alternatively in the language of the recipient country (based on the setting in the country definition). This is also the case for form printing, the form langauge is not taken.
In case no text is available in the entered language, the system responds in the following way:
In Releases R/3 4.0B (as of Support Package 16, see correction instructions) to Basis Release SAP Web AS 6.10 the command SET LANGUAGE as SY-SUBRC returns the value 4. In function module ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM the text language is then set to English (SET LANGUAGE 'E').
The text 'PO box' is then displayed.
As of Basis Release SAP Web AS 6.20 access to the secondary language is possible.
The secondary language is defined using the profile parameter zcsa/second_language.
The command SET LANGUAGE then returns the value 0 as ST-SUBRC so that the function module can no longer explicitly respond to the command SET LANGUAGE 'E'.
The outcome can then be completely unexpected, for example, the German text 'Postfach' is displayed even if neither the logon language nor the recipient address bear any reference to the German langauge.
Solution
The following are possible solutions:
1. Translate the text element into the language of the recipient country.
2. As of 6.20: Change of profile parameter zcsa/second_language
1. Possible Solution: Translation of the text element
This is possible in all Releases for languages compatible with the installed codepage.
For languages that are not suitable for the installed codepage this is no longer possible as of Release R/3 4.0. The translation Transaction SE63 then delivers error message SD836. This check cannot be avoided, in this case a translation is impossible.
Translate the text element into the language of the recipient, or recipient country:
To do this, call Transaction SE63 and choose the menu path:
Translation -> Short texts -> Program -> Numbered texts
(or Translation -> Short texts -> ABAP/4 -> Program texts)
Program: SAPLSADR
Source language: your logon language, for example, 'D',
Target language: Enter your required language, for example, 'E'
Choose 'Translate', enter the foreign text there and save.
As described above, the language of the recipient, or the recipient country (and not the form language) is normally relevant.
If you are in doubt, find out which country has been maintained for the recipient country in the country Customizing settings (Transaction OY01, or, in non-R/3-systems such as CRM,EBP, etc.: Transaction oy07).
To be able to translate a text into a particular language suitable for the installed codepage, it is not necessary to install the language.
The language key should have been entered in the language table (T002) and in the check table TSKT9 (for the translation tool).
For languages not suitable for the installed codepage the translation will not be permitted as of R/3 4.0.
Since the translations of texts in the SAP system are delivered for each language it is unavoidable that this text element in an installation may not be available in all necessary languages.
Below is a list of translations of the word 'Postfach'
CS  Czech           Postbox
DA  Danish          Postboks
DE  German          Postfach
EN  English         PO Box
ES  Spanish         Apartado
FI  Finnish        PL            
FR  French          Boîte postale
HU  Hungarian       Postafiók
IT  Italian         CP
NL  Dutch           Postbus
NO  Norwegian       Postboks
PL  Polish          Skr. poczt.
PT  Portuguese      Caixa Postal
SK  Slovakian       P.O.Box
SV  Swedish         Box
2. Possible Solution (as of 6.20): Change of profile parameter zcsa/second_language
By setting the profile parameter Zcsa/second_language to value 'E' you obtain the same behavior as found in Releases up to 6.10, in which case the text is not available in the entered language.
The secondary language, English, is then accessed, resulting in the text 'PO box' being displayed.
Refer also to Note 140130 if illegible special characters are displayed for countries whose language does not fit the codepage installed. Example: English codepage, destination country Japan. Normally, the Japanese text elements should not be contained in the system, and the English text should be printed. If nevertheless special characters are displayed instead of the English text, Note 140130 may help.

  • Delivery Address and PPOMA_BBP

    Hello,
    I have search this forum and found some interesting text on this subject butnot an answer to my current problem.  We have a plant setup in PPOMA_BBP but there are several 'offices' that represent the plant.  To satisfy business requirements, we created addtional address in transaction BP.  Then we used them in setting the 'Delivery Address' attribute in PPOMA_BBP for the OU created under the plant.  However, when the associate reviews the delivery address in the shopping cart, no address is shown.  We did not enter a delivery address at the plant level because we did not want it to override the 'Offices' delivery address.
    Also, when the associate prompts for the address, only the plant address is shown. Why won't the addess corresponding to the address maintained in the delivery address attribute default in the shopping cart? And why will it not show in the address prompt?
    Thank you in advance. Points will be awarded accordingly.

    Is there any customisation(From IMG) possible to acheive this?
    This is very urgent.
    My requirement in detail : For Material reservations, the standard transaction MB21 and MB22 must be amended to allow entering Address and text data (header level only), MB23 must be able to show the entered data. Functionality of ME21N at the item level tabs Delivery Address and Texts.

  • Billing and delivery address to be displayed in PO

    Dear Gurus,
                          Here client requirement is as follows : There are three plants in three different places- Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad. Client is creating PO from Chennai plant and they want the material to be delivered in Bangalore plant. They want this to be displayed( billing and delivery address) in the purchase order. Kindly suggest me how to map this scenario.Thank you.

    Hi,
    For delivery adress you can use the subscreen for delivery adress in the item of the PO.
    Por billing adress, if it's not the same that the adress for the center, you can do a subroutine for the form (Z)MEDRUCK for the company of these center, of you can create a partner 'Billing adress' and write it in form with a subroutine (Z)MEDRUCK.
    I hope this helps you

There is no ship to address / location folder  to change the delivery address in limit shopping card. We can not see ship to address folder in limit sc.

  • Post code in delivery address when creating PO

    Hi friends,
    when creating PO, the post code field under delivery address tab is a required field. while some of our delivery address do not has post code. it seems a mandatory filed.
    How could I change it to a optional field.
    Thanks,
    Linda

    Ask your ABAPer to assist you on this.
    Path to Screen Variant
    Choose Basis Components - Application Personalization - Tailoring of Application Transactions - Configure Transaction-Related Display Values for Fields
    Screen variants allow you to simplify screen editing by:
    Inserting default values in fields
    Hiding and changing the ready for input status of fields
    Hiding and changing the attributes of table control columns
    A screen variant contains field values and attribute for exactly one screen. A screen variant may be assigned to multiple transaction variants, however. Screen variants are always cross-client; they may, however, be assigned to a client-specific transaction. They can also be called at runtime by a program. The different possibilities for calling screen variants guarantee great flexibility of use. A specific namespace has been designated for screen variants and they are automatically attached to the Change and Transport System.

  • Change delivery address in third party po

    Hi,
    In third party PO the delivery address field is a display only, the data comes from the customer's address (from the SD order).
    In some cases we would like to change the delivery address (we need to send it to the currier that has different address (.
    This can not be change by customization,
    Can someone suggest me what to do? Do I need a development for that?
    Which user exists?
    Thanks,
    Tal Sasson

    Dear Tal Sasson,
    You can choose to make fields display only, required entry, optional, suppressed for a particular transaction. Choose either optional or required entry for the fields that you want to enter (uncheck display only option).
    You can achieve this in 2 ways.
    1. in IMG under
    Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Define Screen Layout at Document Level
    2. You can use transaction SHD0.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_webas620/helpdata/en/eb/5fab41d79b11d296190000e82de14a/content.htm
    In the SAP Reference IMG, you can create transaction variants. Choose Basis Components -> Application Personalization -> Tailoring of Application Transactions -> Configure Transaction-Related Display Values for Fields (Transaction SHD0). Transaction variants allow you to preset values for fields in a transaction, set field attributes, or hide entire screens.
    To execute a transaction variant, you define a variant transaction using the Transaction Maintenance transaction (SE93).
    Once you have entered a transaction code and short description, choose transaction type Transaction with variant (Variant transaction).
    To define a variant, enter the name of the transaction and the name of the variant. You can then use the new transaction code to start the special variant of the transaction.
    Hope this will help.
    Regards,
    Naveen.

  • Delivery address in the PO

    Hi,
    I have changed the plant address in SPRO.
    This has updation in T001W & ADRC
    But still while creating PO, Old address is being displayed in Delivery address Tab.
    Checked the Table T001W, took the Address number ADRNR.
    When I give the address number in the PO system changes to the new Plant address.
    This gives users to enter manually enter every time.
    Now my question is how to default this new plant address as delivery address?
    Regards,
    Vengat

    The delivery address for a PO is determined in the following order of presidence (provided the fields are populated and addresses exist for them)
    1. Address number, Vendor, or customer on the "Delivery Address" tab (Only one can exist)
    2. Storage Location Address (maintain in config)
    3. Plant Address (Maintain in config)
    4. Company Code Address (Maintain in Config)
    It is possible that you are using another address from one of the above fields that takes presidence over the Plant Address.

  • Check of field values from the delivery address in PO

    The customer likes to check a field from the delivery address (f.e. NAME1) before the PO is saved. I looked for Userexits but diddn't find any. The only way sees to be a modification. The question is where to modify...

    Name 1 fields is under Delivery Address tab for PO line item details.        -> This was not my question
    It can be maintained i n SPRO itself by defining Address for store locations .  -> This was not my question
    User have to put storage location in PO line Item itself then Name 1 field will displayed values in SPRO -> This was not my question
    It has to be CHECKED by the system if the content of field NAME1 (from wherever the system gets the address) equals to a special text. There must be a statement such as:
    if ADDR1_DATA-NAME1 eq '1234657678' ....
    The problem is to identify the right include where i can get the relevant fields.
