Hi,
Do you actually want to populate texts against your PO documents?  If you have no text data then these tables don't matter.
Looking at SE37 to see the BAPI_PO_CREATE1 you can see that the two text tables are both optional so you don't have to populate them to create a PO.  You can also drill down on their structure definition to see the data required.  If this is where you are stuck, as you aren't sure what data you need to put into the text tables, I suggest the following to help you figure it out:-
1. Read the documentation for BAPI_PO_CREATE1 as a good starter to explain about the BAPI.
2. Look at the standard function module READ_TEXT and SAVE_TEXT - these are the basic module for reading and saving texts against objects in SAP and have some helpful documentation attached.  This might five you a clearer idea of what data goes where.
3. Go to transaction ME23N and view an exisiting PO document that has texts assigned or go to ME22N and add texts to the header of a PO.  From the texts tab select the text and change "Continuous-text" in the drop down to "SAPScript editor".  This will show you the text in a more basic format and one that is very similar to how the lines of a text should be passed to the BAPI.
Hope this helps.
