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"

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.

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.

Printing long text from material master in from MM07ET

Hello,
I'm using WEE1 output condition to print labels for gr. I'm using the standard object MM07ET and I need to include in the label the long text from material master - table STXL. I know that there is a function READ-TEXT in ABAP for this but I don't have access to abap development. I need to know if it's possible to include a command in the sap scrip to retrive the long text without modifing the program SAPM07DR.
Thank you!

Sorry for the late Reply, Please use the following code in SAPSCRIPT
/: INCLUDE &EKPO-EMATN& OBJECT MATERIAL IDGRUN LANGUAGE EN
&EKPO-EMATN& material Number ( Here please maintain the Field value which is used to print Material Number )
MATERIAL is the Object Name
GRUN Is Text ID
EN Language
You can use the above code for priting long text in the SAPSCRIPT FORM. to find the object name and ID please follow the below Steps
Go to the window were you have maintained Long text... Double click on the text, then it will open a new window.. there Click on the top Goto-->Header.. here you will find the relevant data as follows:
Language: EN
Text ID : GRUN
Text Object: MATERIAL
Name: Material Code

Sales text on Material master

Hi,
Can sombody let me know the logic to determine the Sales text from material master. I need to poppulated the material desc field on the order with the sales text.
I tried using STXH and FM read_text, but i doesn't help.
Thanks in Advance guys

Hi,
Do you want the Text from the Material master to be copied into the ORDER CONFIRMATION Output ?
If so then you can try with the READ _TEXT function module.
If you want to copy the text maintained in the Material master to Sales order then try VOTXN transaction as suggested above
thanks,

Sales Order Text from Material Master

Hi All,
I have a request to configure sales orders so that they will display the text maintained in the sales text tab in material master. I believe I have to use tcode VOTXN, and do something with the access sequence there, but I am a bit confused.
Could someone help me out with this? And where in the sales order will this text be displayed? Will this text show when the order is printed?
Thanks,
J

Hello,
Follow this procedure:
1. Go to tcode VOTXN
2. Customer-->Sales document Item ->click the Text types> Check 0001 Material sales text is there and copy or create in text type Z001 Material sales text
3. Come back to initial screen or press F3
4. Check Sales document Item and click Change mode
5. Check Text procedure 01 - Sales item copy like Z1
6. Click on Z1 and select Text ID's in Textprocedure
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
10. Assign text procedure 01 to your Item Category.
Note: You have to specify Sales text in Material master to show in sales order.
Go to Sales order Item and select Text tab... there you can see your text type Material sales text.
