Service short text

Hello,
We are having the following issue, hope you can help me.
We need to save the short text of a service in different languages English and Spanish, and we are login into SAP in both languages.
First we log in SAP in Spanish and execute a Z program that creates and changes services (the Z program uses a CALL TRANSACTION for transaction AC02). This is working fine but when we log on to SAP in English and execute the Z program,the transaction AC02 (in batch input mode) doesn't save the short text of the service in english as we expect, what happens is that the short text in the original language gets changed. Looking on the table ASMDT we see two entries for the service that we wanted to change. One empty with the field spras with an 'E', and one filled with the short text in english but with the spras field with a 'S'.
What could be happening ?
Best Regards,
Jesus

Dear Jesus,
The table ASMDT should actually hold values for multiple languages. I have seen in my system, it does hold values for multiple languages.
Check if you are passing language dynamically based on the logon language.
The key for table ASMDT is Activity Number along with Language Key which means that it should hold one record each for every language.
Hope this will help.
Regards,
Naveen.

Service Short Text is not copied creating Req w.r.t Contract

Hi,
When I try to create a req service item with reference to a contract, short text (TXZ01) is not copied from contract to req. The field is open for input and I have to input manually, or I'll get error ME083.
Is here a way to copy short text from contract to req automatically?
Thank you!
Regards,
Jully

Hi,
it could be due to an active user exit like EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_005 or EXIT_SAPLMEQR_001.
Please check your exits.

Service order with blank short text

Hi all,
In my case Service orders are getting generated from sales order and the short text of the service order is the material description in the sales order line item.This is the standard behaviour.
Now the client wants short text should be blank and they will key in the text later.Means order has be created with no data in short text.
I have tested with exit IWO10009 and its not catering my needs.Is there is any other exit which whips the data in the shorttext while saving of the order.

Service Entry Sheet Short text in GR accounting document

Hi All,
Once we Accept the Service Entry sheet then a material document will be created in background.What ever text we are assigning in SHORT TEXT (ESLL - KTEXT1) will automatically appearing in Material document in "WHERE" tab TEXT field.
I think this is a standard functionality in ECC 6.0.
Whereas in previous versions the short text in the ESSR - TXZ01 field will appear in material document.
We are using ECC 6.0 but the text is not appearing in GR.. Hence please advice what are the things to check to resolve the same?
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
there was no new development in the release 600 in this concern.
In case of service based inv. verif. (EKPO-LEBRE) used in the PO item the short text of the service item (ESLL-KTEXT1) should appear in the material document.
If this indicator (EKPO-LEBRE) is not set then the text from SES
header (ESSR-TXZ01) is transferred to all GR document items and
FI document items.
In the case when in the PO item EKPO-LEBRE is NOT set so the text from the entry sheet header should be transfered into the material document.

I've tried changing a model service specification using the transaction code ML11 but couldnt change the short text language from German to English.

Hi
One possibility is to Maintain the languages in the Additional data tab under description in the material master record for your Services . Please check wether both the languages are maintained or not . Please correct me if i am wrong .

Error at PO when copying Short Text Service from Model Serv Specification

Dear Gurus,
I maintained a couple of short text services (No Service Master, No Service Number) under a specific Model Service Specification. I maintained the Price(Condition Type = PRS) for these short text services. However, I'm hitting a problem when I'm copying these services over from this MSS to a PO. For those short text services at the MSS which I maintained the Price(Condition Type = PRS), when I copy them over at the PO, SAP will prompt me to put in a price (even though I have maintained the price at the MSS). However, even after entering a price and pressing enter, I get the following error -> Not possible to determine net value Message no. SE377. I cannot save the PO
Note*: For those short text services whereby I didnt maintain the Price(Condition Type = PRS), everything is fine when I copy it over and put in the price. I can save the PO
Please advise.

It has to do with your customising. Please test the same with using the standard pricing schema MS0000.
Please kindly refer to the below notes as well to solve your problem:
25357 MM-SRV: Error in the case of service conditions
27024   MM-SRV: Setting up components (services)
584997 Maximum 11 places with prices at services
and check the settings of the condition types in the customizing
in Maintain Conditions for Services according to the notes

BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE is only for the header.
Questions relating to BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_DATA_MODIFY:
What input parameters are you using when calling the BAPI
Did you use the NOTIFACTV_X tables
Are there any values in the RETURN table

Transfer of Service master short text from PR to PO

Hi All,
We have a scenario where we use Generic service number to order one time services. Based on the requirement we keep on changing the short text (description) of the service master in PO or Purchasing requisition. The issue is - Short text on generic service master is changed in PR but it is keep on reverting to original short text as in service master while converting PR to PO. .
For Example :
Service master - Code - 100001 - Description - "Generic Corp Miscellaneous Services"
I created a PR, included service no 100001 and changed the description of short text to - "Fixing tiles at foyer". Now when I converted PR to Purchase order service description should transfer to PO. But it is showing as 'Generic Corp Miscellaneous Services'. After investigation I found it is coming from the Contract that is linked with the PR as source of supply. And if I removed the Contract from the source of supply short text transfers from PR to PO. So Contract get precedence over PR.
The requirement is - short text of service master should transfer from PR even when source of supply is Contract. It means always transfer short text from PR to PO not from contract. Is there any user exit/ config or change to ABAP code is required.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi
If you have document management system active in your system and if it the document type of documnet (which you created in CV01N) has link object PO and PR. Surely it will be transafred from PO to PR. But if you have added document in service object in Me52N then it will never go to PO automatically.
Thanks and Regards

Make short text field in Purchase order creation only display..

Sir,
Yeah my requirement is quite unusual, but such is the situation.
I want to make the short text field in purchase order creation "only disply". what is happening is that user while creating PO is able to change the text of material in short text column. I want to make it only for display.
Can it done on document type level, since for service type, and Text type of account assignment cat, only text field is filled up. so how to do it.
Please assist...
Rahul

Dear Rahul,
If you want to have the short text display only for standard item but not service item, you may check below customizing.
Transaction SPRO:
MM-PUR-PO
-> Define screen layout at document level
Field Selection group: Basic Data, Item
Field Selection Key: PT0F Standard item purchase order
Field: Short text -> set as display
Hope this help.

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.

Restriction of Change in Short Text in PR

Dear Expert,
We are using single PR type for generation purchase requisition for material as well service.
In this, while making PR for material user has to select material code; while for making service PR user has to write short text and they are assigning Service code in service tab.
Now problem is, in material PR user is selecting material code and write material description (manually).
We want to restrict manual description in short text for material PR.
Thanks in Advance..
With Warm Regards,
Dipen Shroff

Hi,
With same Doc type, you can't achieve your purpose, better to create 2 separate doc type for this purpose though you use same number range for your purpose, Also I think there should be no limitation for this, As a consultant you have to convince your client as per the requirement, also it is standard practice to have different doc. types for material & service.
Do the configuration in SPRO -> Material Management -> Purchasing - > Purchase requisition -> Define Screen layout for documents, Select the field section groups which are relevant to your document types.
Select the relevant field selection group, go to the detailed button. double click on basic data, item. In the screen which pops out, you can make Material description as a display field
You can find the PR Document types from the below path,
SPRO->Material Management -> Purchasing - > Purchase requisition -> Define document types.

Thank you, Kappy, for your quick and helpful reply to my (admittedly) not very quick question!
It strikes me as odd that Apple would appear to make the use of both lower- and upper-case letters possible in the short user-name, leaving the possibility that upper-case letters might lead to some problems/conflicts down the line. It would be helpful if they'd provide some explanation about this. Anyway, as I said, I'm very far from being an expert in all this, and appreciate that people like yourself on these
forums are willing to provide helpful feedback.
Best regards,
Stephen
