G/L account Long Text required entry

Good day all
Can some one please tell me if it's possible to make the field Long Text a required entry when creating/maintaining a G/L master record.
Thank you.
Louise

Dear Louise,
Yes, it is possible. You can use transaction variant.
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.

Naveen.

Dear All,
Is it possible to maintain validation for GL Account long text.
Basically my requirement is to avoid duplication of GL accounts with same long text.
Best regards,

I think you are talking about GL account name long text should not be reapeted when you are creating one more GL account.
If it is the case, It can be possible through programming. please explain the requirement to your Abaper.
Before writing program, try to create & test the validation with any expert from your side, it may be possible with some conditions (< >, =) in Validation.

G/L Account Long Text Field in Display

Dear Sir,
I want G/L Account long text field be displayed along with G/L account number in G/L Account line item display report (FBL3N)
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?
Regards
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.

Hello Gurus,
In KP06 for Cost Center / Cost Element planning, Long Text is available at Cost Element level (Overview screen). How can I change this to ONLY allow for Long Text at the next level (Period Screen)..... So that the Planner can create Long Text e.g for Period 1 but not for Period 2.
I am hoping for a functional solution. Please help.

Vendor Long Text

Hi everybody,
                     I had a requirement where I need to print the long text for Vendor ( Transactions related to vendor ). I searched for the field. But I didn't find any field which stores the long text for vendor.
Can anybody suggest me to find the field?
For Reference :     SKAT-TXT50    is the GL Account Long Text.
My approach :   LFA1-Name1 can be used for long text,   But this is the field which holds the Vendor Name.
Please guide me.
Thanks and Regards,
Murali Krishna T

There are many "long texts" for vendor, perform some search on table STXH with object'LFA1'
(you should find texts like id '0001' for "accounting note", '0002' for "purchasing memo", etc.)
The lines of texts are stored in non-transparent table ([Storing Text Components|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/d6/0db668494511d182b70000e829fbfe/frameset.htm]), The FM [READ_TEXT|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/pt/d6/0db8c8494511d182b70000e829fbfe/content.htm] is called to get those texts in an internal table.

Display GL long text in FAGLL03

Hi Experts,
When running FAGLL03 with many GLs, we are unable to view the description of the GL.
Any idea how can we display GL long text in FAGLL03?
Any suggestion will be most grateful.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Wong

Hi Wong,
Do you mean to say that you don't seem to see the G/L account Long text appearing in the first tab in your G/L account?
If yes then this has to do something with the Screen 2101. There might be some Screen Exit for the transaction FSP0 where this can be controlled. In an ideal case this will not happen.
Account Group controls the Field Status of the G/L master record and there is a Transaction based field status as well for Create, Change and Display (Define Screen Layout for each transaction).

How to fill Long Text in Accounting document in the item level.

Hi,
I need to fill Long Text field in item level of accounting document from the header texts from Billing header(say billing instructions)
I checked the user exit EXIT_SAPLV60B_008 but it didnt worked in my case. I have read the billing instructions in the Billing header using FM READ_TEXT but I am not able to save this text using FM SAVE_TEXT because for the field Long Text the parameter TDNAME is a concatenation of BUKRS(COmpany code) BELNR(Accounting doc. no.) GHAJR(fiscal year) BUZEI(line item) .
But I am not able to capture this accounting doc. number in the mentioned user exit instead I am getting Sales Invoice number and hence not able to give TDNAME parameter for FM save_text.

Hi Amit,
In application area FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING , go for node LINE ITEM. Here create a step & maintain the prerequisite as per your requirement & in the check you can mention the code or you can direct it to a custom program like ZFI_RGGBR000.
Here while maintaining the check you will get structures BKPF & BSEG in which you will get the desired field you are looking for.
Just try to explore in your system how the other validations are maintained.
After you are done with all your code, you have to run the regeneration program RGUGBR00.
Here utmost care should be taken while running regeneration program, you should select all the checkboxes in the selection screen except GENERATE SETS, GEN SUBSTN ROUTNS IN ALL CLNTS & TRACE PROG. GENERATE CALLS .
Hope this make your doubt clear.

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.

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.

GL Account Short vs. Long Text

Where is the short text vs. long text used in the system for GL account descriptions? There is not enough room right now in the short text field for our account descriptions so we are concerned what the implications of using the same names across multiple accounts for the short description but putting all the correct detail in the long text field.

Hello,
Normally these short text are visible when you go with F4 (drop down list), you will see the short text. As stated earlier, I would not recommend any changes to standard screens. Many of the SAP implementation that I have seen gone with the standard and used the length provided by SAP.
Business need to use more logic when they are defining short and long texts. If you are creating cost elements, note that the same short and long text will be copied to COST ELEMENTS.

Ravi

How to download and upload long text for project, WBS , Network,

Hi all,
I have two isssues.
1) I am extracting Projects, WBS , Network , Network activity and network activity element from a SAP 4.7 system using bapi's
BAPI_PROJECTDEF_GETDETAIL
BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO
BAPI_NETWORK_GETINFO
BAPI_BUS2054_GETDATA
I am able to get all the details except long text. I want to know how do i extract the long text other than getting it manually by using select_text and Read_text Function module, is there any bapi to achieve this.
The reason why i am not using Function modules Read_text and Write_text is, object name( TDNAME ) value stored in STXH table for project, wbs and network are the project, wbs and network itself so i dont have any issues with this but the TDname value for activity and activity element are completely different ( Routing number and counter is stored respectively ) which i am not getting as the part of the bapi(BAPI_NETWORK_GETINFO) output.
2) I have to upload the extracted Project and it sub object data to ECC 6.0 system , i am able to achieve this by using BAPI's BAPI_PROJECTDET_CREATE, BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN and BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN. I am not able to load the longtext for the same, is there any way to load the long text .
All help will be greatly appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks & Regards,
Rajanidhi Rajasekeran.

I don't think there is any BAPI to do it.
We are doing it by read_text & edit_text . required fields for text name can be fetched by following select
if not e_activity[] is initial.
    select aaufnr aaufpl baplzl bobjnr b~vornr
      into corresponding fields of table t_longtext
      from afko
        as a
    left join afvc
        as b
        on aaufpl = baufpl
       for all entries in e_activity
       where a~aufnr = e_activity-network
       and a~aufnr is not null.
endif.
      txtname = wa_longtext-objnr.
      replace c_nv in txtname with sy-mandt.
