Purchase Requisition header text as obligatory field

I need you help!!!
Problem description: requestor forget to put some text in the header text of the purchase requisition, that cause that manager not release the requisition due missing information.
So I have a request to do the header text of the purchase requisition (ME51N) as obligatory field, is that possible via configuration??

Marco,
No, this is not possible via configuration. You will need to look into some <i>user exit</i> to make this feasible.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
To see any text go to the detail of that text you will have a magnify button below that text click there you will get the stand text editor open.
Click on GOT->Header it will give the information you need to get this text via function module 'READ_TEXT' they are sored in STXH.

Hi,
Go to the screen where the long text is placed, From menu bar go to the header you will get the Object details.
Use FM READ_TEXT by passing those object details you will get the text.
Have a look in this link to use READ_TEXT

Copy Purchase Requisition Header Text to Purchase Order

Hello!
I will like to copy the Header text of the Purchase Requisition to the Purchase Order.
I have read that SAP does not allow to copy it to the Header Text of the PO but it allow to copy it to the Item text of the PO.
Can you give some hint on how to do this.
Thanks.

Hi
You can't copy the header text of PR to PO header
because Sometimes you need to convert different PRs to one PO.So each PR will have different header text, how the system will identify in PO header text.
So whatever the item text you maintained for PR will be copied to item text of PO if you create the PO with respect to PR.
So for this reason SAP has not provided the option for link the PR header text to PO header text.
Hope you understand,

In transaction code FB60, I want to make header text and reference field mandatory at the company code level.
For one company code , the header text and the reference field should be made mandatory but for the other 8 company codes , those fields should not be mandatory.
if I make the fields mandatory via the document type , then it will be applicable for all the company codes using the document type.

Default text in Purchase Order Header text

Hi,
When i create a PO, only for a specific plant I want a default text description to be captured automatically in the Header Text.
How to get this done?
Please post your inputs.
In case you need any additional info please revert.
Thanks,
Suresh.

Hi
Use this BAdi
The Business Add-In (BAdI) ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST enables you to extend the business logic of the Enjoy purchase order on an individual basis.
You can thus influence the dialog transactions ME21N, ME22N, ME23N, and ME29N, and the BAPIs BAPI_PO_CREATE1 and BAPI_PO_CHANGE.
Typical applications for this BAdI include:
Processing of own objects
Processing of additional data on standard objects
Implementation of additional checks and derivations
Change of data in standard fields
Change in field selection
The PROCESS_ITEM method enables you to change the item data and check it for correctness.
Thanks & Regards

Purchase Order Header Text.

Dear all,
We maintain the header text in PO. There are around 10 different text items in the PO header text.
All these 10 text items are nearly same for some vendors( around say 300 vendors) when purchases are made from these vendors.
Please note that it is not for all vendors and not for material vendor combination (Not in Info records) but only vendor specific.
My requirement is that is it possible to configure system so that when i create the PO for any one of 300 vendor system should automatically put/insert those header text items.
i.e. 300 Vendors-----> Common PO Header Text
Regards,
SP

Hi
Either you can carry out the Process as specified above or.
Create a Z table for the 10 Text Objects & maintain them.
Create another Z table & Maintain the Vendors
Use the Business Add-In (BAdI) ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST , which enables you to extend the business logic of the Enjoy purchase order on an individual basis.
Use the method Process_HEADER
Maintain the Logic of populating the Texts based on the Vendor.
Thanks & Regards

Use FM READ_TEXT to get header texts.
* read the several textlines for each text-ID
loop at sel_thead.
    clear: tline.
    refresh: tline.
    call function 'READ_TEXT'
      exporting
        id       = sel_thead-tdid

        name     = sel_thead-tdname
        object   = sel_thead-tdobject
      tables
        lines    = tline
      exceptions
        others   = 1.
    if sy-subrc eq 0.
      loop at tline.
        po_header_texts-po_number = purchaseorder.
        po_header_texts-text_id   = sel_thead-tdid.
        po_header_texts-text_form = tline-tdformat.

Purchase order header text in ME21n upgrade from 4.6c to ecc6

We had changed the nomenclature of the header text from SAP standard to the way we required as per our business needs
in Purchase order.
Now we have done technical upgrade form 4.6c to Ecc6.0.However, the nomenclature of the header text is reset to original SAP standard names.
Hence suggest the way to restore as per our business requirement.
Thanks in advance.

in other words: you had modified SAP programs.
If you upgrade or apply hotpackages then you have to perform the transaction SPAU, where you define whether you accept SAP changes or keep the modification as is.
It can be that basis just resets all to SAP standard. hence you have to redo your changes.
