Issue pasting long text

Hi,
To anyone who can answer this question....
When I copy a 20 digit number from eg excel and attempt to paste it into (clientserver) text field, which has a max length of 10. The paste gets truncated to the first 10 digits, however in webforms the paste does not even occur.
Personally I preferred the clientserver method of truncating because i can make use of it. Can anyone tell me why it is different?
Thanks in advance...

Text Wrapping issue in Long Texts in ECC 6.0

Hi,
We are migrating Tasklist data from SAP 3.1i system to SAP 6.0. So we were moving the existing Long Text in 3.1i with the same paramenters to 6.0, I am facing an issue of text Wrapping(while displaying).
I am updating complete header data like - TDID, TDOBJECT, TDNAME, Lang, TDFORM(SYSTEM as in 3.1i), Version, Line Size(72 as in 3.1i), Number of Lines by using SAVE_TEXT FM.
I can see the text is updated properly but when i open the text in display mode(With PC Editor), i can see the text getting wrapped. Line size is limited to 40 Characters whereas in 3.1i its 72 characters.
Please help me here.
Thank you.
Prasad

Actually i tested with READ_TEXT function module. All parameters are fine, matches exactly with 3.1i but i am facing this issue while displaying.
In display mode - in 3.1i Ruler shows 7.2 Inches(72 Characters) whereas in 6.0 its 4 inches(40 Characters). Should i go for any settings change so that i can see complete 72 characters in 1 line.

Issue ith Long text in Quality Notification.

Hi All,
I have an Issue with Quality Notification long text change functionality.User reported that he can only append the additional text and can't edit the alaready entered screen. When I verified the config for the notification type it shows that 'Log line' check box have been checked and "No text" change Check Box Not checked. We need log lind and the same time user can edit the alkready entered screen. We are using Ecc 6.0 system.
Please guide me to fix that Issue.
Regards,
Senthil

Hi,
you should check in configuration the part "Overview of Notification Type" (Quality Management>>Quality Notifications>>Overview of Notification Type).
When you select your notification type you go to "Format Long text" and there you can disable "No text change". This option is useful when you want to add text but don't want to allow modification of existing text.
Hope this help,
Serge

Unicode Issue - Corrupted long texts in Plant Maintenance Work Orders

we're having an issue regarding corrupted texts in a Unicode system. here's the scenario:
- long text came from 4.5b wherein, of course, the japanese characters are viewable either in EN or JA logon
- now, this long text when viewed in our acceptance/testing system which is already, take note, already in unicode long text is garbled. both in EN and JA logon long texts are garbled. we are expecting that since the system is already in unicode it can now support code page for japanese.
(here's the tricky part -- the one seen in the field is properly displayed but when trying to view the complete long text, those that are not in the field are garbled.)
- we also have some scenarios that came from 4.5b, when viewed in the testing system while not unicoded - it's garbled in EN. this is normal since it's still non-unicoded. and of course when viewed using JA logon it's not corrupted anymore. we're expecting that this will also be the same with the issue above. but it's not.
please see link for screenshots. [http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/9760/unicodeissuee.jpg|http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/9760/unicodeissuee.jpg]

i know it's weird.
but then i talked to a friend, she's an abaper. she said that those that can be converted or properly viewed are texts elements in database tables and those that are like free texts or comments can not. and there's no possible way for this but to manually retype everything.
makes sense right.

Display issue with Long Text in Smartform

Hi All,
We have a custom smartform, where we are displaying the Invoice Item level details.
The Item description (InvoiceItemItem Text) is of about 1000 character length and a variable v_temp with 2000 length has been defined and saved.
In debug mode, the complete text is saved in the variable v_temp.
The same variable is placed in the smartform to display the complete text.
But the complete Text is not getting displayed and only the system displays 256 char.
How to resolve this issue?
Regards
Pavan

Hi,
Another workaround will be to define internal table with a field of lenght 256, and use the function module RKD_WORD_WRAP to split the string (v_temp) into 256 characters length. Now loop at this internal table and print the same.

Iw22 long text issue

hi,
I am facing a strange issue in long text creation and saving in iw22 that whenever i am changing the long text or adding any line with the existing long text it is showing the reported by field's id of iw22 in long text user id place.
In spro there is a setting where from we can add an option to track the user id and time stamp of every one time change in long text in iw22 or iw21.so logically if i am changing the long text it should retrieve my id whereas it is retreiving the id which is mentioned in the reported by field in iw22.
I debugged a lot through the program working behing it but left with no suitable explanation.
Can anyone please help and let me know if any thing I should do extra to get the actual reason for this.
Please help!!!.
Thanx in advance.

I am copying and pasting into a new, Pages document (from the word processing menu), and I paste in text that is longer than one page, it doesn't continue onto the next page. I can't see the end. How do I get it to show everything I paste in?

I want to copy an extensive amount of text from a web page into a Pages word processing document, but it seems to chop it up into text boxes, some of which aren't long enough to show all of the lines of text. I can't get hold of a bottom edge of the boxes to drag them to make them longer. I tried several times starting over with a new, blank page (and I made sure to choose from the Word Processing part of the dropdown menu, since I read about a similar problem that said not to use the layout menu. It keeps doing the same thing. What do I have to do to get long text pasted to multiple pages, instead of it trying to be all on one page?
In the long run, what I want is to create this as an ePub book. Is there a better way to go about this?

Hi Ellen,
Copying from web pages can include some weird formatting. Instead of Paste, use Paste and Match Style (Edit Menu).

Ian.

Excellent Eitan,
Here is what I am trying to Achieve.
In Create Notification IW21 , They need 5 Long Text in Custom Tab ( Say Tab Name is MBR ).
TAB1 NOTIFICATION Standard Information , TAB2 REFERENCE OBJ , TAB 3 MalFunction , Breakdown Standard one...... TAB 7 ( Custom Tab ).
In Custom Tab , I added 5 LONG TEXT ( its 5 WHY Concept ).
When the User enters data in 5 Long text , it should store long text along with Notification number when save.
But Notification number will be generated @ the time of SAVE , but before that its just shows as
%0000000001 ( and Number will be generated 1000065479) at Save.
How to achive this .
I did this:
Added 5 Custom Container. and In PBO / PAI
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_0100.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100.
IN PBO
   CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR1 ,    CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR2,    CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR3 like wise 5
   CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR1->SET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE ,    CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR2->SET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE .. Like wise 5 , So when the user Click on Custom Tab ( MBR ).
It give 5 Long text.
When he click tab1 or tab2 or tab3 .. and again tab MBR , still data is available.
How to store this data for future retrival ( IW22 or IW23 ) ?
Its working fine when I enter first time and goes here and there and finall save .
IN SAVE BADI , I imported the Long text and created Standard Text SO10 with Notification Number with LONG1 , LONG2 .. means 1000065479LONG1 as standard text.
But not working when I entered first time and go to tab1 and tab2 and then to MBR tab and added few more lines , its not exporting full lines and in IMPORT ( SAVE BADI ) giving ZERO Lines.
Please help and thanks for your quick response.

Issue in updating the long text for Routings

Hello,
I am developing an onject to update Long text(which are already created but need to be overwritten).
Can this be done using /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_IMPORT_TEXTS via LSMW.
I developed an LSMW witht this, I am able to retrieve the required field for name which are needed as key from tables.But how can I dynamically update this field for the correct value relating the operation.One issue regarding this I am facing is that in conversion, I have operation number in the source field and have maintained source field according to source file but use values just to retrieve correct value for name field in mapping,it is taking only the last operation number into account from the source file itself and not earlier values.please guide.
Regards

yes you can use /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_IMPORT_TEXTS via LSMW
In the SAP system, there is no uniform rule for the structure of the actual text key Textname. However, in order to be able to maintain the structures and fields, you have to know what the structure of text name as well as the values for text object and text ID are.
Procedure
       1.      Display a text of the required text type.
       2.      Branch to the editor.
       3.      Choose Goto > Header.
The Text header dialog box appears.
Result
In the Text header dialog box, you gather the required information.

Catalog Code long text - transport issue

Hi,
We appear to have a strange issue when transporting Catalog C
ode long text in our clients DEV system. I have followed the advice given in SAP Note 38570 by creating a transport, adding the entries to the transport and then using program RSTXR3TR to export/import. Entries QKATALOG,QPGT and QKATALOG,QPCT have already been added to table TTXCP and program RCTXTCPY has been run.
The issue appears to be when displaying the long text we have format issues and a message appears saying 'Unable to call PC editor (unknown paragraph format <0>)'
We have created the long text in our
config client and when this is transported to our data clinet (both in the DEV environment) the export/import program appears to work OK but the long text is not changed?
As our data client is locked down for configuration changes how can we change the format issue (apart from opening up the data client - I want to avoid this as we will need to open the QA client and also the PRD client!!)
Any advice welcome!!

Maintaining role detailed description(i.e long text) issue

Dear Experts,
Can anyone help me out with the issue which i'm facing while maintaining role detailed description(i.e long text) .
In standard GRC approver screen, on click on any technical role it opens role details popup where we have one tab namely detailed description.
Can any one let me know where to maintain that role detail description or from where (any table)it fetches the role detailed description?
PFB the snapshot for reference.
Thanks
KH

Hi Katrice,
what SP are you on?
This role detailed description is maintained at backend system (PFCG) during role creation.
This information is later replicated to SAP GRC BRM (role detailed description as on your screen shoot) during role rep sync jobs.
This data can be also maintained in SAP GRC (define stage) during role creation.
If I remember correctly from SP14 this information once updated in BRM is later populated to ECC (both way sync).
Hope this helps,
Filip

Copy functionality which did not copy Long Text values causing us an issue

Two new Master Recipes created in Bathurst by using copy functionality in transaction C201 contained SRC value errors believed to be caused by changes in the copy
functionality which did not copy Long Text values causing us an issue when creating Process Orders. Current workaround is to manually edit the
value fields and re-save the MRs, the issue is then resolved.

Promotion creation via BAPI - long text issue

I am going to use BAPI_PROMO_CREATE to create a promotion. Unfortunately this BAPI does not handle the long text piece of the promotion, and that is a requirement. Does anyone know of a BAPI that will create the long text for a promotion, or is there a generic BAPI for this functionality? I couldn't find one.
Thanks,
Tami
