How to retrieve long text for a particular record

Hi,
I've been looking through some of the numerous posts relating to reading long texts but I can't seem to find out how to retrieve the necessary parameters for READ_TEXT for a particular record without using the GUI.
Is there a way in ABAP that one could retrieve the parameters that are required to execute READ_TEXT just from one of the fields in the base table. eg. I would like to bring back a list of all materials with their associated long texts. I can run a query on MARA for example and retrieve the necessary material information but I would like to know how I could get the necessary information, for each row in my results, to pass to READ_TEXT.
What information would I need to perform the above, if at all possible?
Thanks in advance,
Charles

You can check out SE75. Here is where the objects and ids are listed/maintained. There is one trick to find the object/id. That is, create the text in the specific transaction. If you are talking about header text for a sales orders, go to VA02 and enter some text and save. Now go to SE16, enter STXH as the table name. On the selection screen for STXH, enter your user name for "created by" and enter the date. Execute. The record that you see is probably the text that you just created. You can see the object, the id, and even how the name is built. In this case, it would be sales order number.
Sometimes where you enter the text, there is a little "scroll" icon under the text editor, clicking that will tell you the object and id. In some cases, this functionality is not there.

Thanks,

Hi Satya,
There is a simple way to update the long text. There is direct input object in the LSMW for long text.
Object            : 0001
Method          : 0001
Program type : D
SImply go and create the LSMW with first option and follow the steps. No need to call the function modules separately. This standard program will take care of every thing.
If you have multiple lines to populate in the equipment master at the header level then you need two set of files. Then key will be equipment number with leading zeros if it will not be alpha numeric.
1) First file with field EQUNR.
2) Second file will be
EQUNR                          C(018)    Technical identification number
TXPARGRAPH                     C(002)    Tag column
TXLINE                         C(072)    Text editor text line
TEXT_MARK                      C(001)    Description Indicator for RIIBIP00 (IBIP) Processing
Please let me know if you need more in detail.
Thanks,

Reg how to retrieve long text

actually the requirement is given below , am stuck at fetching long text ......can anybody help me in retrieving the long text(suppose two or three lines) into single variable and passing it to read_text function module as per the condition
Plz reply ASAP............
i need to combine data from two tables n also add long text field in to the final internal table.
requirement is
IF QPMK- LTEXTKZ = u2018Xu2019 then Fetch the Long Text as
Language = P_SPARCHE,
TEXT ID = u2018QPMTu2019
Text Object = u2018QPMERKALu2019
Text Name = QPMK- MANDT + QPMK-ZAEHLER + QPMK-MKMNR + QPMK-VERSION + Language (single character)
Combine Values in a single internal table such that the table has only QPMK-MKMNR, QPMK-SORTFELD, QPMK-DUMMY20, QPMT-KURZTEXT, QPMT-LTEXTKZ, Long Text

hi abap_sap leaner,
try to avoid using + for combining multiple fields, instead use concatenate and then pass to text name,
then u have to loop line table(which contain long text) and store each value from the loop in a variable of length 1500.
pls refer the following,
hd_name = p_ebeln.
call function 'READ_TEXT'
    exporting
     client                        = sy-mandt
      id                            = 'A01'
      language                      = sy-langu
      name                          = hd_name
      object                        = 'EKKO'
ARCHIVE_HANDLE                = 0
LOCAL_CAT                     = ' '
   importing
     header                        = header
    tables
      lines                         = hd_lines
   exceptions
     id                            = 1
     language                      = 2
     name                          = 3
     not_found                     = 4
     object                        = 5
     reference_check               = 6
     wrong_access_to_archive       = 7
     others                        = 8
here u have to loop hd_lines and store hd_lines-tdline values in a variable for every time the loop executes....
finally the variable contains long text..
hope it will help...

How to retrieve User Description for a particular MDM User from Console ?

In my Application i have to retrieve User Descripton(a field) for the MDM Users from Console. I am using MDM Java Api 1(MDM4j) in my application. Is there any way i can retrieve MDM User Description from Console without using MDM Admin API?

Hi Namrata,
Sorry, I have a different perspective from you (I don't work with the Java API). So, you can ignore what I said about the protocols. That's lower-level than what you would care about.
The correct thing to do is to use the Admin API to get the users, as you are doing. If you have to log in twice, it might be because you're using the old Java API.
Please verify that you're using these packages:
mdm-core.jar, mdm-common.jar, mdm-protocol.jar, mdm-data.jar, mdm-admin.jar
versus the old API, which was called mdm4.jar.
Thanks,

Tcode FV50: How to find long text in FI Document line item Before Saving.

Hi,
How to find long text in FI Document line item.
During Parking of the FI document through Tcode FV50 i m giving the some text in the long text not in the text field.
I would like to validate the Long Text Before Saving in user exit "U300" under the "Sunstitution" .
Please anybody can be help me out where exactly this long text is going to be stored or in which internal table or memory id.
Please give me the answer as soon as possible .
Note:- Read_Text function module is not useful. Because Read_text useful after saving document.

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.

Hai ,
here you have to use custom control, for this
DATA: line(256) TYPE c,
      text_tab LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF line,
      field LIKE line.
1) Create custom control in your screen
2)   CREATE OBJECT: container EXPORTING container_name = 'TEXTEDIT',   "--> (this is custom control name in screen)
                   editor    EXPORTING parent = container.
3) CALL METHOD editor->get_text_as_stream "This method reads data from custom control , inserts into itab 'text_tab'
         IMPORTING
          text = text_tab.                                       "
      READ TABLE text_tab INTO line INDEX 1. read the text into wa 'line'
if you want more clarity , see 'ABAPDOCU' >ABAP USER DIALOGS>    COMPLEXSCREEN ELEMENTS--> DEMO CUSTOM_CONTROL

Use Read_text function module.
you need to pass
ID
LANGUAGE
NAME
OBJECT to the function moduel
To find the Text id name language and object these are the following steps. Example: FB02
1. goto FB02, Enter Document number
2. from menuselect Goto>Header-->header Text..... New window will be displayed
3. select the Header Text. here you can see all the text.
4. click on the TEXT (which you want to know the Text id) , then press log ICON (you can find in bottom right of the text window) it looks like a rolled paper.
5. in the Next window you will find Text Name. Text ID, Language. etc...

Default values for long text for mic in inspection plan

hi,
Some long text are coming default when i am creating inpection plan for mic.
This is coming for only particular plant. For other plant it is not coming. Is there anywhere we can make it as default for a particualar line item . ie for particular characteristics i.e 10, 20 etc
sathish. R

Hi,
I am not sure , whether you are mentioning about Long text for MIC or Default insp char number (10,20,30..) in the insp plan.
If you are talking about Insp char number in the insp plan . you can specify the same in SPRO , QM->Q planning ->Insp planning -> General -> Maintain profiles for default values.
