FI Document Long Text Field

Is there an OSS note or some way to allow for a header text field that is longer than 25 characters for FI document postings? I know of the method to attach text files and attachments to the actual document but I want to see if there is an actual field that can be directly leveraged in the system instead.

Hi,
No, the fields in standard tables keep their attributes. There is no note which can change this.

Eli

Special Characters in Long Text Field of FI Documents

Hi,
Users entered the following in the long text field of a FI document:
"Settlement of claims for direct shipment (Refer to XXX/YY-053/2009, XXX/YY-018/2009, XX2120000031 and X2120000033)"
The default editor used is the one which looks like the MS Word.
When we changd to the other editor (Goto > Change Editor), we see the following:
"Settlement of claims for direct shipment to Thailand (Refer to"
"XXX/YY-053/2009<(>,<)> XXX/YY-018/2009, XX2120000031 and X2120000033)"
How did "<(>,<)> " comes about?
Any ideas?

I'd probably use a regex of "allowed" characters rather than a list of "disallowed" characters, but thats just a difference in approach.
I would probably use a regular expression - alphanumeric is fairly easy to check
String value = request.getParameter("enteredField");
boolean alphaNumericOnly = value.matches("\\w+");As a matter of being nice to the user, you can also do this check in javascript on the client side.
ALWAYS validate server side.
Optionally validate client side to give the user a better experience (less round trip requests)

BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST long text field missing

Hi,
I will have to transfer our vendor open items from v 3.1 to ERP 2004. I
am using BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST to upload these open items. However, I
cannot find the 'LONG TEXT' field in the said BAPI. In using F-02, a
long text field/button is available. How can i post an entry in the long text
field of the line item in f-02 using BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST.
Also, i have used the extension1 table and a BTE (note 487722) in
uploading the posting key. Since field bschl is available in table
accit, there was no problem in doing this. However, i cannot seem to
find the field long text in this table. Is it available? If not, what
can I do with the above situation.
Thanks.

Hi
Excuse me! you can't use RFBIBL00, use the fm SAVE_TEXT.
After calling the BAPI you should have the number of FI document will be created and know in which item you need to insert the long text so:
THEAD-TDOBJECT = <Object text>.
THEAD-TDNAME(4) = <Company code>
THEAD-TDNAME+4(10) = <Document number>
THEAD-TDNAME+14(4) = <Fyscal year>
THEAD-TDNAME+18(3) = <Item number>.
THEAD-TDID = <Id text>.
THEAD-TDSPRAS = <Language>.
THEAD-TDLINESIZE = 72.
These are the header data, transfer the text in LINES parameters.
Max

G/L Account Long Text Field in Display

I cheched the layout, the option of G/L account number is available but option of G/L account Long text is not available.
Kindly guide me as to how can I do it?

Chirag Shah

You must do some development for it.
You can add additional field to FBL*N reports with using BTE exit.
First of all, if you don't use BTE before, you must create a product on FIBF.
Call FIBF transaction -> Settings -> Products -> ...of a customer
Create a new line,
Product: ZFI
Text: BTE Products for FI Exit
Product active: tick checks from activation.
Then you must call SE11 for structure RFPOS.
You must use append structure function for this structure and you can define ZFI_RFPOS append structure
Define 4 fields.
Component: KUNNR - Component type: KUNNR
Component: NAMED - Component type: NAME1
Component: LIFNR - Component type: LINFR
Component: NAMEK - Component type: NAME1
Then save and active your RFPOS structure.
After that, you must do same step for structure RFPOSX.
Then go to SE37 and copy from SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00001650 to ZFI_INTERFACE_00001650 FM.
After copy action, you must uncomment this line on ZFI_INTERFACE_00001650 FM's source code. It's very important;
E_POSTAB = I_POSTAB.
Then you should add some ABAP code for getting customer & vendor details.
I give you some examples, you can use it. (Next message on this thread, please check)
Then save and active FM.
Call FIBF transaction again.
FIBF -> Settings -> Process Modules -> ...of a customer
Define a new line.
Process: 00001650
Function Module: ZFI_INTERFACE_00001650
Product: ZFI
and this customizing.
Then you go to SE38 transaction.
start report RFPOSXEXTEND. After starting, a pop-up appears, you must click YES.
After those operations, you can see customer/vendor code and their names on FBL3N.
ABAP source example,
TABLES : bseg, kna1, lfa1.
IF sy-tcode = 'FBL3N'.
CLEAR: bseg.
SELECT SINGLE *
FROM bseg
WHERE bukrs = i_postab-bukrs
       AND belnr = i_postab-belnr
       AND gjahr = i_postab-gjahr
       AND koart = 'K'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    e_postab-lifnr = bseg-lifnr.
    CLEAR: lfa1.
    SELECT SINGLE *
    FROM lfa1
    WHERE lifnr = bseg-lifnr.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      e_postab-namek = lfa1-name1.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
CLEAR : bseg.
SELECT SINGLE *
FROM bseg
WHERE bukrs = i_postab-bukrs
       AND belnr = i_postab-belnr
       AND gjahr = i_postab-gjahr
       AND koart = 'D'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    e_postab-kunnr = bseg-kunnr.
    CLEAR: kna1.
    SELECT SINGLE *
    FROM kna1
    WHERE kunnr = bseg-kunnr.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      e_postab-named = kna1-name1.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Need to find table/field behind "Item long text" field in Notes tab in FB70

Hello,
To print a custom FI invoice, I need to access the data entered in the "Item long text" field of the Notes tab in FB70. To test, I used 5000 characters in that field to make sure it stood out from the rest of the data. F1 help does nothing on that field, and even running an SQL trace (ST05) doesn't show the text in that field being entered into any table. I tried F1 on a nearby field and got a structure instead of a table, so I investigated the structure through SE11 but found no character field with such a large capacity. How else can I find where that field is stored?

Thanks! It took a while, but with your help and a few other pages I managed to piece together an answer.
Vinod helpfully explained that the text name is a concatenation of various fields, but didn't specify how to find the line item ID. If you go to table STXH (as hinted by Brad and confirmed [here|http://fuller.mit.edu/SAPWebDocs/LongComment.html]) and search for texts created today (or whenever you were testing), you'll see the text name ends in '001' after GJAHR, so the line item ID is '001' regardless of how many line items you enter in the invoice.
Armed with that info, you can call READ_TEXT and loop through the results to concatenate the contents of each TDLINE field. (FB70 automatically breaks the user-entered text into different lines even if the user didn't press Enter, and each line gets its own record in the results.)
Thanks again,
Pedro

To Make the Long text field as required using OA Framework Personalization

Hi All
In IProcurement requisition, we have long text field called 'Justification' a long text field. I have made this field as mandatory by setting the required property as 'Yes' at site level. This works for Most of the cases. However if the user just presses Enter key and skip without entering something in this field . So how to stop the user without entering something except spaces or enterkey to proceed further.
Regards
Rajkumar

Hi,
Very Interesting question, I never thought of it.
In your case you may try to extend the controller of that page and in the controller trim the text and set that value to the text.
In other way, You can try in USER hook function : POR_CUSTOM_PKG package, check if you are getting that value.

How to copy paste a table structure from word document into Text Field [field format Rich Text]

In our current implementation we have a Blank page with Text Field [field format Rich Text] on generated PDF Document.
Once the PDF document is generated, user can copy paste content form any word/rtf document to into the Text Field.
Pasted content retains all text formatting [Bold, Italic, Underline, Indentation] except the Table format. Text Field is removing table metadata from the content and converting it into plant text.
Is there anyway to copy paste table structure as it is from word document into Text Field?

Hi,
I don't think you can! While you can paste formatted text into the rich text field, the table metadata means nothing to the textfield.

Long Text Field in a Table

Hello Everyone,
I am looking for a solution for including a Long Text Field in a Table. I was not able to find any UI Element for LongText Field in a table. Could anyone suggest me a solution for this. I greatly appreciate your help.
Regards,
Gopal.

Hi Pankaj,
Thanks for your reply. I know that we cannot insert "TextEdit" UI Element in a table as this option is not available in ABAP WD. I also know that we can increase the width of the table Cell editor. But we dont want the Long text field to look like that.
We are looking for some thing that looks a bit meanigful for entering short paragraphs. It would be great if you can suggest us with some other ways of doing this.
I hope you can understand my requirement. I appreciate your help.

here is how I would do it:

2) apply this code to the string:
DATA: lv_text TYPE text40,
          lv_length TYPE i.
WHILE lv_string IS NOT INITIAL.
lv_length = 39.
lv_text = lv_string.
WHILE lv_text+lv_length(1) NE space AND lv_length GE 0.
       lv_text = lv_text(lv_length).
       lv_length = lv_length - 1.
ENDWHILE.
IF lv_length GE 0.
     APPEND lv_text TO lt_short_text.
ENDIF.
   lv_length = lv_length + 1.
   SHIFT lv_string LEFT BY lv_length PLACES.

Display long text field in multiple rows using CL_GUI_ALV_TREE

Hi,
I am working on ALV using CL_GUI_ALV_TREE. My last column in this ALV is a long text field which is a text editor field in a standard transactiion. As this text can have more than 250 characters value also, I want to display this field in more than one line , restricting each line to 75 characters. Is it possible to display a field content in more than one line? Please help.
Thanks.

HI,
I dont think it is possible., but instead what i can suggest is under last node which u want to split automatically, create 3 text edit fields and split ur text manually through program.

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.
