Material Description Field to be in Display mode.

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to make the Material Description field in the Display mode for PR. I changed the screen layout value into display for screen variants ME51N and also for NBB. Then also it is not getting effected. please advice on this issue on what needs to be done from the config setting side. Thanks.
With Regards,
Saakithyan.

Hi,
its fine that you made changes in NBB Field selection group for PR, but have you assigned that field selection group in Document type please check once,
untill and unless you assign the field selection group in Doc type you will not get the expected results.

Interactive Adobe Forms - Description in list box in Display mode

Hi All,
We are working with Adobe Interactive Forms.
There is a list box for States that is bound to the REGION field in IT0006.
When I choose a value in the combo box for Stateu2026 and click on Check and Send all fields become readOnly and are displayed for reviewu2026 in this step the combo boxes display the actual value instead of the text (eg shows the 2 character code for a state instead of description)u2026 how can I make sure that the form displays the description even in the readonly mode?
In the Binding properties, I have set Item Text as "text" and Item Key as "key". This does not work. Is there any other setting to be made?
Regards,
Priya

have you tried using a drop down box instead? I have several drop downs I use on 1 form - they're all bound directly to the backend and work fine.

How to make a field from display mode to change mode for a perticular tcode

hi all,
my client want to change one field which is in display mode of a material doc in mb02.
Restrictions in some fields in MIGO needs to be changed.
Uploading point in case of issue: While editing the MIGO latter, this field needs to be edited.
Goods recipient in case of receipt: While editing the MIGO latter, this field needs to be edited.

hi thanks for quick replay,
my requirement is, supose i post a material doc through migo in 101 mtype, in item detail, where tab i have given the good reciepitant and unloading point. but while i want to change that material doc in mb02, i saw unloading point is in change mode, but good reciepitant field is in display mode. my client requirement is to change that field. so for change that field, the field should be in change mode, so thats what i want.
i have checked in configuration side, but i didnt get any setting, i think we have to customize that standard screen.
any comments?

You can try with any one of them V53W0001, V50S0001, V50Q0001, V02V0004, also you can proceed with table auhtorization as there is need to check one table before entring in T-code as if user id is there then not able to edit.
Here don't make code like need to maintain all id's, if id is there then not able to edit, so to whom you don't want to allow maintain their id's in that.

Screen Display Language of Material Descriptions in PO vs Output Documents

Greetings Experts,
We have the requirement to display material descriptions in purchase order screens as well as other screens in language dictated by user setting and not the business partner preference. Currently, when we log on as user with English language setting and create purchase order for vendor with a Korean language setting, the material description in the screen is displayed in Korean. So it appears that system ignores the UI preference and displays the material description in the vendor's language/comunication preference. We see this same behavior in other SAP transactions as well. Is there a way for display language for material description to be dictated by user logon preference while retaining ability to output documents that are required in vendor's preferred language?

Hi
The material description will come from the material master record, so whic language you are entering in the material master it automatically pick to the purchasing documents.
If you need material description in different language you can do this in material master itself goto additional data and maintain there.

Material Description to be overwritten in PR/PO from material master

Hi,
when we create a PO/PR from ME51n and ME21n the material description field is mandatory hence inspite of making setting as display only in SPRO the inital screen will except any description and will save it.
Is there any thing else by which the description data can be overwritten from material master so that even if the user enters any xyz description the system overwrites it from the material master.
Regards,
Reena

Hi,
You can very well achieve it by making the field "Material description" a "Display" field in the IMG path: Maintain screen layout at document level
However, you have to use the right "Field selection key" to make the screen changes. For eg. for NB purchase order, the field selection key would be NBF and not ME21N.
The field selection key that is applicable for the document type can be found in "Define Document types" img activity.
I have checked this and it works perfectly fine for both PR & PO.
Once you enter the material number in PR (or PO), the material description is brought from material master and then the field is greyed out. (thought initially the matl. description field looks editable).

Material Description while goods movement in CORK

Hi experts,
When i am trying process order confirmation, it pick-up material code only and not material description, and it is very difficult to recognize which material is this by this, so need material description field there, but in standard SAP its not there, please suggest me how can i get description there.
Karad D D

Hi,
In CORK screen,material description is there.it will get displayed next to the material.
If you are lokking in CORK goods movement tab,then it is there in end of teh table ,just drag that next to material field and save the layout.from next time onwards it will get displayed next to that material.
To make description next to material always,first drag that field next to material and then click on the table setting at the right hand corner and create a variant and make that variant as current setting.
Hope it helps

Block material description in MM02|

Hi,
Is there any settings to block users permissions for modify material master description in MM02?
Thanks
Jorge G

Hi,
   Transaction variant will be a good option for you. Go to SHD0 transaction and create a new transaction variant for MM02. Maintain the material description field as "output only" and save the variant.
    Please note that you have to maintain the variant with material description as output only for all the material master views.
   You can assign the variant to all required users, who doesnt want to change the material description, then create a variant group and assign accordingly.
Refer the doc: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a070bfbb-d34a-2d10-b092-ecbe0b0d4a4c?quicklink=index&…

In PM order, can we change the material description for item category N?

Hi,
In Plant Maintenance work order, is there a way to change the material description while purchasing material (item category N) using a material master number? In config. the material description field is open for input. However on the work order components screen it becomes grey as soon as one enters a material master number.
Background: We want to maintain generic material master records in the system and use them for purchasing materials (item category N) on work orders so that the purchasing data defaults from the material master. But we need to be able to change the description per the specific requirement.
Similar functionality works on sales orders. Are we missing anything?

Hi there,
One solution would be to have some generic materials created and used them during work order processing. These generic materials needs to be extended to all the required plants.
Hope this works,
Cheers !!!
