PM order: operation short text mandatory for active operations only?

Hi experts,
a quick question regarding operation short texts in the PM order:
I would like to make short texts in PM order operations mandatory.
When I set the short text to "mandatory" in the "operation list customizing" field selection (Tcode OIOPL), all of the operations in the order shown in the operation list (standard 0010 to 0170) get the short text field marked as mandatory.
This means that a short text is expected even for operations which are not used/active, which is a pain if I only want to use operations 0010 and 0020...
Does anyone know of an OSS note that fixes this?
Or is there some other customizing that needs to be done?
Thanks a lot!
Andreas

Hi,
There is no fix for this as its not an error as such. The screen processing does not distinguish between active and non-active operation lines. So if short text is mandatory it will be required on every operation line. OIOPL is not suitable for marking fields mandatory for that reason - ok for hiding fields or making display only.
Consider the exit as suggested.

  • Text charges for activity from to 49988 short code program

    I rec'd a bill from Bell for 3 events to 49988.  I phoned Bell and they agreed to refund the money, but they said it was an Apple charge to set up facetime.  I was told by Bell Canada to phone apple and complain.    I learned from apple that all carriers have agreements with them to send a short code program silently to activate facetime, and that these texts/short code programs are free contractually between the carriers and apple and that no charges should be sent to the customer.

    ok, well if you were told that no charges would be sent to the customer, and you were charged, then Apple has nothing to do with it...complain to Bell.

  • Adding work order short text to KSBB report

    Presently, our budget administrator runs various KSBB reports for showing budget/actuals. For instance, you run the report <i>Plan/Actual Comparisons -> Additional Ratios -> Cost Centers: Act./Plan/Commitments</i>.  Then you drill down into the actual line items for the one of the material settlement cost centers. One of the fields in the resulting report is called "Partner Order" and it shows the work order associated with the line item.  Of course, the work order can be displayed in IW33.
    What I would like to do is show the work order number short text [description] either along with the work order number or instead of it.  I know the work order number ties back to the AUFNR field in the view CAUFV, and the short text goes back to the field CAUFV-KTEXT.  What I don't know is how to get KTEXT onto the KSBB report.  I'm sure I will have to customize the report, but I don't know where to start.
    Anybody have any ideas?  Thanks in advance.
    We are running 4.7 Enterprise (Basis 620) with FI, CO, MM, PM, PS, and HR/PY.

    Hi!
    After you have chosen the report and you are on the selection screen, you have to determine its technikal name. For this, choose environment - techikal information menu.
    Report group is what you need.
    Then go to GR55 transaction to modify the report group.
    Because these are not exact ABAP program, I don't know how can you read (select) data from caufv, but you might try it.
    OR! You can copy the program. The program name is also in the technikal data panel, its like this: GPC3IL91J3FDQJFRDFHTFNJSIKF040
    Give more human name to it and you can write your ABAP code into it.

  • Priority field mandatory for planning plant-order type

    Hi
    Is there a standard way through configuration that I may contol priority field in order header to be mandatory for some order types only in one planning plant?
    Problem is that if I make the priority field mandatory for order type, it will be so for all the planning plants which i dont want. Also i dont want it to mandatory at planning plant level since there are many order types under one planning plant and requirement is to make priority field mandatory only for some order types under this plant.
    TIA.

    Hi Tehsin
    Thanks for the reply.
    In the transaction we can separately make it mandatory for either planning plant or order type.
    My requirement is for combination of both.

  • Short Text/Material Description in PRs and POs

    Hi Freinds
    My client has a requirement that except for Item cat. D for all others the text feild should be greyed out and Material no. is mandatory. How to go about in customising.
    Regards

    First you need to define Z* doc type & in the Allowed Item Categories only allow "D".
    and create new field selection key and assign it to Z* doc type..
    and for  Standard Doc type in in the Allowed Item Categories remove "D", then Pls do as below
    Spro>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Order>Define Document Types
    Here check the "Field Selection Key" against the PO doc type
    (ex: Standard NB doc type the "Field Selection Key" would be "NBF")
    Then go to
    Spro>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Order>Define Screen Layout at Document Level
    Select the " Field Selection Key" of ur doc type..Just Double click on that
    then click on "Basic Data, Item", there you can see the "Short text" field..
    and make it Display.
    You need to use Z* doc type for Services , there you can enter short text.
    and for Standard the Short text will be in Display mode.

  • Wrong short text for sales order item

    Hi guys,
    I have an issue for the short text for sales order item. It is werid that I get the different short text depends on how we enter the material. If we only enter the material #, we get the short text for sales order item from material master data. If we enter the material #, plant and storage location, we get the short text for sales order item from customer material infor record. However, the customer material infor record is only maintained for inter-compnay transaction. System should not pick it for third-party transaction.
    I found a code in FV45PFAP_VBAP_FUELLEN:
    Bei Primärbedarfen ist MAAPV-ARKTX nicht relevant
        if vbak-vbtyp ne vbtyp_pbed.
          vbap-arktx = maapv-arktx.
        endif.
    Kundenmatinfo hat höhere Priorität
        if knmt-postx ne space.
          vbap-arktx = knmt-postx.
        endif.
        if da_arktx ne space and
           svbap-tabix = 0 and
           vbapin-matnr = vbap-matnr.
          vbap-arktx = da_arktx.
        endif.
    But it is nothing customized. Who can tell me what is wrong here?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Text coming from source (MMR, CMIR etc.) is being "pulled" via the access sequence. Check the Text analysis in your sales order in Tab Texts, at item category level.

  • Loading Operations Short Text for Task Lists

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to update the Operation Short Text in a General Task List using IA06.
    I am unable to carry out the operations short text update using an LSMW with a Recording as it is picking up the wrong operation number. Is there an easy way to update these using a different transaction or some other load method?
    Thank you,
    Muna S.K Ali

    Hi joseph,
    There are 3 things mixing up.
    1. The comma(,) format of your present number can be modified to stop (.) format by your user- default values. i.e., Through any screen click on System --> User Profile --> Owndata -->Defaults Tab --> Here in Decimal Notation field select this format .  Save the settings. With this your present comma format will be corrected to normal decimal format.
    2. In your Tasklist the UOM was H  not HR as shown in your CUNI picture. So you need to modify settings for H in CUNI.
    3. My settings are as in the attached picture the way discussed in the referred thread.
    Note: The member in the referred thread could succeed in his requirement which is exactly like yours. So I referred this thread. But inspite of having these settings in my system I am restricted to one decimal place as of yours, may be because of something else. You may try whether this works for you.
