PO text from material master

I understand text maintained in material master appears in PO under that item. In some purchase order I don't want to print that text. Also I don't want to remove that from material master since I want to use that for other purchase orders.
Can I delete or remove that PO text from purchase order without changing material master ?

Hi,
This you can control through copy control function.
In SPRO > Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Orders > Texts for purchase orders > Define copying rule from item texts, there select material PO text and give the value for fix field as required.
Based on the fixed indicator, the below mentioned controls can have.
The text can be fixed (indicator "")*
A text with the status "*" is then displayed in the document and can be adopted in the document if:
You change the text and save the document
You select the text and adopt it (Item -> Texts -> Adopt text)
Until you adopt the text, changes in the master record will also be adopted in the text.
The text is fixed (indicator " ")
The text is copied into the document. Changes to the document text do not have any effect on the original text and changes to the original text have no effect on the document text.
The text is not fixed (indicator "N")
The text is only displayed in the document (i.e. it cannot be changed or printed).

List of material number with PO text from material master

I want to get a list of materials number with PO text from material master. Can anybody help ?

The purchase order texts maintained in the material master are stored
as SAPScript text files in tables STXH (header) and STXL (lines). For
material master records:
Field TDOBJECT = 'MATERIAL'
Field TDNAME = material number (MARA-MATNR).
So you should be able to write a small report to extract the data.

7. Assign sequence Seq1/ ID Z001- Material Sales text/ check Ref field/ select field Text is obligatory or not obligatory/Acc 21 - header note
8. Select Access sequence and click 21 Material Sales then select Access sequence for Text ID's
9. Assing seq 10, Text object MVKE, ID Z001- Material Sales Text

Text linkages from material master to purchase requisition

I already set the text linkage between basic data text in material master with item text in PR. I left fix indicator blank since I want the text to be adopted automatically.
I run MRP and create planned orders. Then I convert planned order to purchase requisition. Material master basic data text is not shown in purchase requisition. I tested using N and * and they both show. With N it shows (reading from material master) and I accnot modify it. With * it shows but I have to adopted to actually store the text as part of this document. With blank is not working. We want the text from material master to be automatically adopted in PR without manual intervention as with *.
Thanks and regards, Jose Oyon.

Hi
If got ur query correctly : you want to make short text field in Preq as Display.
If yes then go to Tcode OLME (or SPRO) -> Purchase requistion->Define Screen layout at doc level->select ME51N--->double click basic data, item and make short text filed as display.

If so then you can try with the READ _TEXT function module.

Short text in material master

Hello,
When I enter a material in the sales order it throws the following error:
Material ABCD is not defined for sales org XXXX, dist ch. YY, language EN
Please check whether
A short text with the appropriate language exists in the material master record (a short text must be available in the language of either the customer or the sales org)
I have entered the correct material and have maintained the material in the correct sales org, dist. ch. The problem is due to this short text in material master.
The question is where is this short text in the material master?
Thanks,
Shankar

Dear Shankar,
Please go to MM02 transaction enetr your material number then select the Basic data 1 view go in to that from here you click on Additional data Tab or Cntrl+F6 here you can maintaion the Language for that material under Discriptions tab.
Once again the check the material master is maintainig for sales org XXXX, dist ch. YY or not.
I hope it will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

PO Text in Material Master

Hi,
I have a material created in Material Master which is visible in Basic Data1 and Basic Data 2.
This Material is created in all the plants.
When I click on the Purchase Order Text view, I get a prompt for Plant, so I assume that Purchase Order Text is plant specific.
Now I modifiy the PO Text field in the view and save it. It should be saved for this plant only.
When I look back the PO Text for the other plants in the Purchase Order Text view, I get the changes reflected there as well.
It seems that PO Text is not plant specific, am I correct? If yes, why Purchase Order Text view asks for the plant number.
Thanks,
Amber

Dear Amber,
Its client level:
Here's a short cap from SAP help about PO text in Material master:
"A purchase order text is a text describing the material in more detail. This text is subsequently copied to purchasing documents (such as purchase requisitions or purchase orders) automatically, where you can change it if necessary. It is valid for all organizational levels, not for a specific plant. You can enter a purchase order text in the material master record in as many languages as you like, though only one text is allowed per language"

Inter company PO is not pulling the valuation price from Material Master

Hi Experts,
We have a scenario, Inter-company PO with pricing procedure which pulls Material Price from Material Master (Std Price), similar to intra company PO
Even after maintaining the std price in the supplying plant , system is not pulling the Valuation price from Material master only for a particular Material
I checked the Plant level attributes ( for ex: Plant Mat status, client level status and everything looks fine )
Could you guys please mention what would be the issue ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

How to upload PO text of material master ?

dear gurus,
how to upload PO text in material master in mass , can i use LSMW or BDC ? if yes then how?
I have done the recording but LSMW is not working for PO text.
Upesh khairnar.

Hi!
try using Purchasing Inforecord for this. in here you maintain master data linkage for Material Master and Vendor Master. You will just have to input the Material Number, the Vendor Account, and the Purchasing Org. In here you can maintain the PO text defaulted per Material Number. After the maintenance of Inforecord, the PO text will be reflected on the PO document.
Here is the ff Transaction Code:
- ME11 (Create Inforecord)
- ME12 (Change Inforecord)
- ME13 (Display Inforecord)
Hope this helps, Thank you.
