Purchase Order Text in multiple language

Hi ,
I am facing a typical issue. We are maitaining the material master text in English as the parent plant is based in US. recently due to expansion plan a new plant under a new company code was started in Domaican Republic whose native language is Spanish ie ES. Now when we are doing STO between TWO company codes which are having English and Spanish respectively , we are getting the error as ' MATERIAL MASTER TEXT IS NOT MAINTAINED IN ES' .
I went to particular material master and added text in ES in additional data tab. It is working fine, but now there are thousands of material and how to over this issue. Any SAP OSS Note ?
Please advice,
Regards,
Vengal Rao.

Material description VS Purchase order Text when creating a PO

Hi Gurus,
When creating a PO for a specific material, I have to print a purchase order text different from the material description.
To do this, a specific text has be added to the material master data in the tab "Purchase order Text" with the italian language maintained.
But, when i start to create a new PO for this material, the short text that is shown is retrieved form the Material description and not from the Purchase order text that has been added before.
How can I do to have the purchase order text shown in the PO instead of the common material description?
Thanks in advance for your support.
Regards,
Valentino

Hi Rajaram,
thansk a lot for your answer, it has been very helpful.
Could you please clarify me the below points?
1) Could you please confirm me that this is the functionality of the standard SAP System? That means that in case we want to put the purchase order text in to "short text" we would need to create an ad hoc development, right?
2) In case we print the PO with the purchase order text added for the material, is there any point where we can find this information for the material, or we will see just the material description from the Material Master Data?
Thanks a lot for your support.

Roberto

Material Purchase Order Text

Hi,
    I need to add a new field(column) "Purchase Order Text" in my alv report from MM03 view "Purchase Order Text". This field will have the values that are entered as text in the view in a particular language.
I suppose we can obtain this text using "Read_Text" function module.
But, I am unable to use the appropriate tdobject and tdid for executing the function module.
   Please suggest me if using "Read_Text" is the correct way or is there any other way to do it. I simply want to display the Purchase Order Text values.
Thanks & Regards,

Your need to use READ_TEXT FM Properly:
text name -> you need to concatenate info record ,plant '0' purchase org
language : EN
text id BT
Object EINE
CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
EXPORTING
client = sy-mandt
id = 'BT'
language = sy-langu
name = g_tdname

Sales text and Purchase Order Text

Hi,
in what tables are stored Sales text and Purchase Order Text of the material master ?
Best Regards

Hi
All long text is stored in STXH and STXL.
Object is MATERIAL.
Text-Id for basic data text is GRUN
Text-Id for purchase order text is BEST
For sales order text it is text object MVKE with text-id 0001
Go to SE37 function builder. Enter READ_TEXT and do a single test ( F8 )
Enter your parameters and execute. Example below.
NAME is a comibation of materialnumber (00000000008000000)WITH leading zeros
if numeric and sales org (1000) plus distribution channel (10)
Import parameters - Value
CLIENT - 010
ID - 0001
LANGUAGE - E
NAME - 000000000008000000100010
OBJECT - MVKE
ARCHIVE_HANDLE - 0
LOCAL_CAT
Just for future reference with regards to getting text id's etc.
eg: PO texts.
--> Go into the material master PO text
--> Double click into the required text.
--> Click the "GO TO" menu option.
--> click Header.
and all the info you need is there.
Thanks..

Hi ALL,
I am updating purchase order text of a material in MM02 using BDC program.
I have done recording, and the program is updating text if the text field already contains some value. but,
when the field is empty and if the program tries to feed new data then it is not working.
Please help me!
regds,
Rajan

Hi
material master purchase order long text
you can use through BDC or LSMW it is possible,
here we need to check in lsmw Direct input mentod Program name "/SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_IMPORT_TEXTS" object name (0001) method(0001) program type (D).
Header we have --- MATNR and TEXT ID
Item ---LINE(Text line).
in header- for NAME and ID map the source fields MATNR and TEXID respectively.
OBJECT and SPRAS pass the constants.
in Item--for TEXTFORMAT pass the constant '*' and for the TEXTLINE map the input field LINE of the ITEM structure.
or else u can check in SE37 'CREATE_TEXT' , in that function module check it object Id , name , spras, lineitem, language "E"
here i mention example of text flat file,

Use LFA1-KONZS to determine additional purchase Order Text to print.

Dear All,
I have been asked to group vendors and for different groups the purchase order texts to change based on what group they belong to. I would think that this has been done before somewhere.
Without doing any customization I was thinking of using the LFA1-KONZS. This is where I get stuck.
Do I get the print program to look at the KONZS and select additional text with an if statement?
Does this info need to be copied to a PO table? User exit need to be changed?
Please advise,
Thanks,
Ian

Thanks for your input John,
Your questions provides the solution, this is what I did.
I created the standard text (SO10) to be added to the terms section in the PO. The current status is this:
I found the program and the form. Looking at the form I can see where the current terms text is called.
This prints fine.
IF &EKKO-BUKRS& EQ '0010'
INCLUDE ZENG0010 OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE E PARAGRAPH 'TX'
ENDIF
I added an if statement to this one:
IF &EKKO-BUKRS& EQ '0010'
INCLUDE ZENG0010 OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE E PARAGRAPH 'TX'
ENDIF
IF &LFA1-KONZS& EQ 'A1A'
INCLUDE ZENG001X OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE E PARAGRAPH 'TX'
ENDIF
Again, thanks for your support.

How to capture purchase order text view in mm01

Hello All,
Im doing recording for one material type in BDC but im not able to capture purchase order text view while creating material.
Its not getting recorded only pls guide bcoz i have to enter purchase and sales text for new materials.
Regards,
Sunny

Hi Sunny,
I have a different sugesstion. Never use BDC if u have BAPI available for the same functionality.
use this BAPI BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA for material creation. Even u can create the po texts here. Check the parameters MATERIALLONGTEXT and EXTENSIONIN. in FM documentation. It is pretty clear.
Different long texts (basic data texts, purchase order texts, internal comments, sales texts, material memos) can be created for a material. This requires the fields APPLOBJECT, TEXT_NAME, TEXT_ID, and LANGU or LANGU_ISO in table parameter MATERIALLONGTEXT to contain entries. Depending on the content of field TEXT_ID, the field TEXT_NAME must have the following structure:
The material number is transferred first. If it has fewer than 18 characters, the remaining characters must be filled with blanks. If it is a material memo (LTXT), the plant key must also be transferred from character 19 onwards; in the case of a sales text (0001), this must be the sales organization and distribution channel. The combinations allowed for the four different fields are indicated in the following table:
APPLOBJECT TEXT_NAME TEXT_ID    LANGU
MATERIAL Matl no. (18 char.) BEST, GRUN, or IVER Language
MDTXT Matl no. (18 char.) LTXT    Language
Plant
MVKE Matl no. (18 char.) 0001    Language
Sales organization and
distribution channel
Thanks,
Vinod.
