GL account description at ME21N layout

Dear Gurus,
At ME21N, when a PO line item which is to be charged to a Cost Center is created, the Acct Assignment tab will come out whereby you have to put in the GL Acct and Cost Center number.
Is it possible to have the GL Acct description to come out at the side of the GL Acct Number ? My Users don't want to use the F4 functionality to view the GL Acct description. They want it directly on the screen itself.
Appreciate any feedback on this as to whether this is possible in the first place
Thanks..

I have been doing some research on my own. Can GUI XT do the trick ? I'm not familiar at all with GUI XT ..

Offsite account description

Hi Guys,
Can any one tell me how can get offsite account description in my layout.
Regards
Ashish

OKie, putting the text of this OSS note as below. Your ABAPer can code this for you:-
*Summary*
*Symptom*
You want to be able to display offsetting account information in the line item display.
This is not possible in the standard system.
*Other terms*
FBL1, FBL3, FBL5, RFEPOS00, GET_GKONT, FBL1N, FBL3N, FBL5N
*Reason and Prerequisites*
No standard functionality
*Solution*
The solution requires the use of Business Transaction Events (previously: 'OPEN FI - Event) and, therefore, is not a modification.
Procedure:
1. Define fields RFPOS-GKONT and RFPOS-GKART.
Prior to Release 4.6x
If the fields do not yet exist in the structure RFPOS:
Use Transaction SE11 to display structure RFPOS.
Choose Go to -> 'Append structures'.
Specify a new name (e.g. ZZAS) in the customer namespace,
and create the following fields:
            FIELD            DATA ELEMENT
          ZZGKONT              GKONT
          ZZGKART              GKART
After saving, enter a customer development class (for example Z001).
Then activate the structure.
As of Release 4.6x
Implement Note 217189 in your system, if it has not already been
applied by means of one of the following Support Packages:
                RELEASE    PACKAGENAME
                4.6B      SAPKH46B08
                4.6C       SAPKH46C01
2. You can use function module LINE_ITEMS_GET_GKONT.
If this module is not available in the system, proceed as follows:
Use SE37 to copy function module SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00001650 in the customer namespace under any name (e.g. ZZ_GET_GKONT).
Sample coding for ZZ_GET_GKONT:
(code}    FUNCTION zz_get_gkont.
      e_postab = i_postab.                <-- important
      CALL FUNCTION 'GET_GKONT'
           EXPORTING
            belnr           = i_postab-belnr
            bukrs           = i_postab-bukrs
            buzei           = i_postab-buzei
            gjahr           = i_postab-gjahr
            gknkz           = '3'
       IMPORTING
            gkont           = e_postab-zzgkont
            koart           = e_postab-zzgkart
       EXCEPTIONS
            belnr_not_found = 1
            buzei_not_found = 2
            gknkz_not_found = 3
            others          = 4.
ENDFUNCTION.
**Meaning of parameter: gknkz
*1 Display offsetting account if clearly specified
*2 Always display offsetting account with the highest amount
*3 As case 2, but including line items generated automatically
This source code is an EXAMPLE and can therefore also be implemented differently. For example, you can also program that other data on offsetting account (master record data) is read here.
3. Call Transaction FIBF.
Choose 'Settings -> Products -> ...of a customer'
You can choose the product name and the description at will.
Set the 'active' indicator and save.
Go to Settings --> P/S modules -->
...of a customer, and add the following entry:
Event:              00001650
Product:            Product name from item 3
Lnd/Appl:          blank
Function module:    Module name from item 2
Save the entry.
4. In addition, you need to create a variant containing the offsetting
account information:
Prior to Release 4.6x
You can define special fields in Customizing (FAKP: Menu: Account -->
Display Items --> Special Fields) that show the offsetting account
information. You do this by adding the fields from item 1 to the
variant. All functions such as search, sort, summarize are available.
After Release 4.6x
Call the line item display and start ist.
Via button 'Change Layout' or
'Settings --> Display Variant --> Current', copy the offsetting
account information to the display variant.
Save this variant under any name.
All functions such as search, sort, summarize are available.

Report Painter - Account descriptions not showing

Hi guys...I have created a balance sheet in report painter, using a library based on table FAGLFLEXT. this table does not have account descriptions in it, but only account number. The client wants to see the account description as well. Is there a way I include that in my report? Since we are using the new GL, i have used FAGLFLEXT. Please advise how I can accomplish this...can I use a view or a table join between FAGLFLEXT and SKA1?
please help
thanks
Brian

Dear Brain,
In the report painter, GRR2, select your report and go to
Formatting > Section layout
Select the lead column tab
Here in the Contents field, select "Key and description"
That would resolve the issue.

Add G/L Account Description in transaction FBL3N

Dear all,
I would like to add G/L Account Description in transaction FBL3N. I checked its layout if there's predefined column to show G/L Account Description but I found none. Can I ask you guys what's the exact things I should do like BTEs or USER-EXITS or BADIs?
Regards,

Hi,
Sorry I've made a mistake, you're using FBL3N and not FAGLL03.
For changes in FBL3N, I think the only solution is to use BTE event 1650.
Please refer to this thread :
Infoobject getting overwritten because of changerun

FAGLL03 alternative account description

Hi guys,
We are working with group accounts in Group chart of accounts (f.e. CAXX) and depending alternative accounts in Local chart of accounts (f.e. CAFR).
When consulting FAGLL03 (Display line items) you can choose to display group account numbers or switch to alternative account numbers (via Settings - Layout - Current header rows --> and change characteristic ).
But unfortunately description is not changed when switching to alternative accounts. Description always remains group account description in this report.
Is there a way to display alternative account number AND alternative account description in FAGLL03?
regards

Herman,
Alternative number you can display, but make sure that Alternative a/c number should be filled in GL master under control data tab.
There is no provision for Alternative account description.

Translation of G/L account description

HI all,
can any one explain the steps for doing translation of GL account description in t.code: OB_GLACC13?
regards,
ramesh b

Hi Ramesh
This transaction is to do a Mass change on with the same values for all the g/l accounts you selected.
Like change all the fields status group for these account in ZZZZ
The translation you have to do with the normal transaction for de master data G/L acounts.
When you habe a lot of entries you can create an LSMW for it

FSG showing Account description instead of value and description

Hi ,
I am getting rows without Account Values in an FSG that I created - it has 27 columns. I had specifically created a row order with Value and Description for the Account Segment with all other segments having width zero. When I run this FSG I only get the Description and not the values. I tried everything from increasing the width of the column and also removing the row order but it still shows only the description. I also tried with a row order with Value only for the Account Segment but even then it shows only the Account description. I have no idea what is causing it? Can you tell me how to fix it?
Thanks,
Arun

Can you post the query for which the bind variable values are not being shown and the trace output for the same?
Probably it is listed down somewhere when you actually executed the query among the others. Try completely analyzing your trace file..

Account Description Case stmt

Hello All,
Business wants to display account id and account description concatanated together with an '-' seperating them. Account id and Account desc are two different columns.
So far it looks fairly simple as we need to just concatenate the two columns with an '-' in the middle. But some account id's does not have descriptions so to get there i used a simple case statement but it seems to be not working
case when "GL Account Hierarchy"."Level 12 Account Description" is Null then "GL Account Hierarchy"."Level 12 Account Id" else "GL Account Hierarchy"."Level 12 Account ID || '-' || "GL Account Hierarchy"."Level 12 Account Description" end
it does concatene the account id's and descriptions like this 124 - Account which is good but it displays just 124 - in the cases when account desc is null which is not what i want. I want to be displayed just as 124.
My case stmt logic seems to be correct or i might be something obvious which i am not able to identify. Please advice
Thanks
Prash

Hi.
Try
case when "GL Account Hierarchy"."Level 12 Account Description" =''
instead of
case when "GL Account Hierarchy"."Level 12 Account Description" is Null

Offsetting Account Description in FBL3N.

Hi All
I am trying to include Offsetting Account Description in FBL3N Report. BTE 00001650 for offset accout info is already activated and the values for the GKONT & GKART fields are available in the report.
I have checked couple of SAP Notes (112312, 984305, 1034354), relating to this issue but nothings seems to work out.
I tried few things like - Appending the RFPOS and RFPOSX structures, and then regenerating the RFPOSXEXTEND program.
But while regenerating the RFPOSXEXTEND program I am getting error - END OF PHASE 002 with Message No D0 322.
Also tried to add special fields in T.Code O7R3 but this doesnt allow me to add the GKONT_LTXT and I am getting error - Field name GKONT_LTXT is not allowed with Message no. FICORE405.
Is there any way out to add the required GKONT_LTXT in table T012S through T.Code O7R3 (OBVU).
Thanks in advance
