    Hi,
    Make those fields what ever user wants to enter in the selection screen aslo the field which you want to change by user.
    When ever user clcik on execute then they should get message by saying that "Description is changed".
    Code:
    1. create one work area type table of MARA.
    2. fetch the single record form MARA into that structure where table entries = user inputs
    3. map the description field with user entered field to be change
    4. Unlock the table
    5. modify the table from work area
    6. Lock the table.
    7. Pass the message.

  • Change material description in MM02

    Hi,
    System is allowing to change the material description in MM02 from any views.
    Requirement is once the material code save, system should allow to change the description of product to user who have authorisation for Basic data 1 and 2 not other views.
    Like I am giving Accounting view authorisation to one person, he should not able to change the product description.
    Is it possibel and how?
    Thanks,
    Samir Bhatt

    Hi,
    Description is part of MARA table. If you give full authorization for General data fields to the persons that maintain basic 1 & 2 and does not give this authorization to the persons that are not allowed to change the description, you will achieve what you want. This will allow the financial people to see the general data fields but they will not be able to change them.

  • How to stop material description changed after changing customer on SO

    I have updated material description on a SO. However after changing the Sold-to, the material description refreshed back to original.
    Anyone knows how to stop system to change material description back to default?

    Hi
    In standard SAP when we change sold to party in sale order system redetermine prices and taxes but this is new thing for me that system also redetermines material description. Amitesh Anand I have also chcked this in my system and material description is getting changed after changing the customer.
    Field is VBAP-ARKTX and you can ask your ABAPER to write the code in userexit MV45AFZZ and 
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP. I have checked this system is calling this exit. Give it a try and update the status.

  • How to change material discription at sales order item level ?

    Dear Gurus,
            We have some requirement need to change material description at sales order item level , but in system it is in disable mode how to change that  into change mode in sales order item level?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Venkat

    Not possible in SAP Standard.
    Instead why not create a Customer Material Info Record in T-Code - VD51?
    Alternatively it the requirement to change the Description is only for few Sales Order then create a Text ID & Enter the Description in Text Feild. Then in Smartform program wrie a code which will check for Material Description in the Text first & if not found then take from normal material Description in Sales Order.
    But Customer Material info Record seems to be the best solution.
    Hope this helps,
    Thanks,

  • Material Description from Purchase Order Intercompany to Outbound Delivery

    Dear.
    For a purchase order intercompany I change the material description of an item.
    I create the delivery from po using VL10D , I check the delivery but the item position is taken
    from material master and not from the purchase order changed material description.
    How can I solve this problem ?
    Thanks

    Hi
    Check tcode VTLA for NL/DL for item category NLN for instance. You must have in data transfer the subroutine '302' )Item w/o Sales Order). You have this coding:
      if not xkomdlgn-arktx is initial.
        lips-arktx = xkomdlgn-arktx.
      endif.
    Try to do this, you have a coding:
      lips-vbelv       = xkomdlgn-vbelv.
      lips-posnv      = xkomdlgn-posnv.
    where you must have the PO number and item. Search in EKPO the description and replace it in LIPS-ARKTX. For this, create your own VOFM and replace it in the settings of VTLA.
    I hope this helps you

  • User Exits for Purchase order & requistion to control Material description

    Dear Experts,
    I am creating a Purchasing requisition & Purchase order for certain Material Type. Currently user can change material description at item level without anu check. Now I have different material type like PACKING(ZPAC), Raw material(ZROH) Etc.
    My requirement is like such that i want to allow change of material description of packing material(ZPAC) but system should not allow for Raw material type(ZROH). so from where i can control this?
    Can any one give me EXIT name or enhancement point for Purchase order & requisition.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Piyush

    Dear,
    You can achieve this by Field selection in SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Requisition > Define Document Types > Here get the Field Selection Key for PR Doc Type
    SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Requisition > Define Screen Layout at Document Level > Here for that Field Selection Key, for Selection group "Basic data, item", make field "Short text" as display.
    Similarly do for PO also SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Define Document Types > Here get the Field Selection Key for PO Doc Type
    SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Define Screen Layout at Document Level > Here for that Field Selection Key, for Selection group "Basic data, item", make field "Short text" as display.
    Note: - But in case of text Purchases, you need to create a new PR and PO Document Type. So that this config. will not have any impact on Text Purchases.

  • Change in Material Description in Sales Order

    HI,
    We have a scenario where there's a change in our existing material Description and there's an existing SO of the said material. When we changed the description in MM03, it doesn't reflected/changed in VA03. The material description there, remains the same. Is there any other option where we can apply this changes, without even redoing the SO in VA01?
    For Example : Material 1000 with Description - Juana House Model 1 ; While the correct description should be Juana Basic House Model.
    Please suggest if there's any other options available. Thanks

    Hi,
    In VA02 you can change the material description (As per SAP Standard). If you are unable to modify material description, please check with ABAP consultant in below prog/user exit:
    Program Name: MV45AFZZ,
    User Exit - userexit_field_modification
    Please take help ABAP consultant for the same.

  • In PM order, can we change the material description for item category N?

    Hi,
    In Plant Maintenance work order, is there a way to change the material description while purchasing material (item category N) using a material master number? In config. the material description field is open for input. However on the work order components screen it becomes grey as soon as one enters a material master number.
    Background: We want to maintain generic material master records in the system and use them for purchasing materials (item category N) on work orders so that the purchasing data defaults from the material master. But we need to be able to change the description per the specific requirement.
    Similar functionality works on sales orders. Are we missing anything?

    Hi there,
    One solution would be to have some generic materials created and used them during work order processing. These generic materials needs to be extended to all the required plants.
    Hope this works,
    Cheers !!!

  • Item description not getting updated when material description is changed

    Hi,
    In a contract, line item description gets copied from material master. However, when material master is updated line item description does not get updated in a transaction. Is there a way to update this?
    Thanks,
    Deepak

    Hi Deepak,
    Line item description is not changed as when you enter the material in order and save, description is saved in table CRMD_ORDERADM_I along with other details. now if you change the material master description it is pretty obvious that CRMD_ORDERADM_I contents will not automatiically change. if you enter the same material again in order as new line item system will read from material master whereas for existing line items will be read from CRMD_ORDERADM_I . you can change the description using FM CRM_ORDERADM_I_MAINTAIN_OW
    i hope it clarify your concern.
    Thanks

  • Material Description changes not allowed

    I do not want user to change the material description in Sales Order while entering Items . How I can stop this?
    regards
    Vikas
    Edited by: Vikas Puri on Mar 10, 2009 11:38 AM

    Hi,
    There are two scenarios which can happen while creating order:
    1) Order is being created by EDI - Idoc from External System. In this case the data of the order cannot be changed.
    2) You can use a user/screent exit in the VA02 screen, that once the order is saved after VA01 you cannot changed the material.
    See if you can discuss this scenario with your technical person.
