Note 371796 - Msg 06474: Please specify short text more precisely
ME21N, ME22N, ME23N
Message 06474: "Please specify short text more precisely" for a purchase order with reference to a material group contract.
Additional key words
ME21, ME22, material description
Cause and prerequisites
In the new transactions for the purchase order, the system displays the message for a material group contract with reference, which is correct, if there is an assigned material without a material number and the short text, which was copied to the purchase order from the contract to help you, was not changed to the actual material text. In this case, the short text of the material should be more specific in the purchase order than that for the material group in the contract.
For situations in which the specification of the purchase order text does not need to be checked, the message could be made adjustable in Customizing.
In Transaction ME21 and ME22, the text is not copied and must be entered manually. However the system then no longer carries out a check.
Solution
For situations in which the specification of the purchase order text for contracts with the item category material group should not be checked, this note enables you to set error message 06474 in Customizing.
See the advance corrections.
any impacts what itcause damage to business.
bullet points. i will freeze the thread.

    Hi
    06474 is a MM-PUR error . It will also have effection to MM prochase order process.
    Error message 06 474 with item category W and M contracts occurs if the
    material on the PO has the same short description (text) as a non-stock
    item from the referring contract.
    If you change the description of your short text on the PO item (ex.
    text1) or you insert a material master with a description the error
    message will not appear.
    The error message that is generated is part of standard functionality.
    It is designed to prevent you from having a duplicate material.

    The code listed above is where the error is generated. When there is no
    material master (EKPO-EMATN) and the short text on the PO (EKPO-TXZ01)
    is the same as the short text on the contract (KEKPO-TXZ01) and the
    contract is item category M (PSTYP-MUNB) or W (PSTYP-WAGR) then the
    error is generated.
    You can set the message to 'W' in SPRO t-code:
    SPRO > Materials Management > Purchasing > Environment Data >
    Define Attributes of System Messages
    I hope this information will help you.

  • Preflight flags up rotated text that is set at the specified minimum text size. Is there a way around this?

    I have set up a preflight command to flag up any text below 5pt as an error, which works fine. It doesn't flag up text at 5pt - only below... Great! However, if I have some text set also set at 5pt, yet rotated vertically, it flags it up as below 5pt. Has anyone else had experience with this, and if so, is there a work around? Thanks!

    Hi,
    I'm not sure about the Microsoft Account Contact limit, for this issue, you may post the question to Microsoft Community:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com
    If you still have the contacts in your Outlook Client, I suggest you setup the Microsoft Account(Windows Live) in Outlook via Exchange ActiveSync, then move the contacts to the contacts folder of the Microsoft Account, let it sync, then all will be done,
    you don't have to export and import the .csv file any more.

  • Movement of message text in Display item

    Hello Dears,
    How i can blink message text in Display item and movement of message text from right to left and left to right in the Display item please share with me your valuable knowledge it is urgent.
    advance thanks.

    Hi,
    A couple of options. Create a timer and write a pl/sql procedure which will do all those things for you, like changing background/foreground colors of your text/display item and replacing text imitating its movement. Or use image item instead with animated gif or something.

  • Addition of new tabs under contract item screen in SRM 7.0

    Hello Experts,
    My requirement is to add the three new tabs with custom fields under the contract item screen.
    I thin i have to user web-dynpro ABAP for this requirement since it is SRM 7.0. Once i developm the web dynpro applications separately for each tab, how do i integrate those web dynpro with the contract item dynpro and how to populate the values for the new fields added in the tabs. if i want to fetch the data from the custom tables into the tabs, i need to create a new web dynpro where i will write the logic to fetch the values, but to fetch the values i should first get the input data from the contract scrren which is a standard application. In the new tabs, i need to display and edit values for demands ( purchase requisitions ) for that contract line items, so i sould get the material number, year of demand, purchasing organisation etc from the contract screen. So it means i have to enahnce the main screen for contract item.
    Please advise how to achieve this.
    I have seen the details for adding a new fields to the the contract item scrren and some oss notes  , but here i need to add the new tabs and custom fields into that and i need to integrate these data with the contract line item.
    Your help is very much appreciated

    Hi ,
          In the transaction related to PO select the path goto->header texts and then details of the texts like ID,objectname,language,name.Pass all theses details to 'READ_TEXT '   FM. Then you will get text lines described for a perticular Po ,similarly for item also.

  • Contract item text to be transferred in PO --Need help

    Hi,
    Need help. Is there any BADI for the following?
    Classic Scenario. Sourced shopping cart. Referring to service contract.
    When PO is created upon approval of sourced SC, then need to have the item text in contract to be copied in PO line item.
    Example: Contract line item 10 with item category D has text  say "testting.."
    When PO is created upon approval, it should also show the same text in PO line item under description.

    arjman

    Hi,
    There is a configuration for transferring the text from SRM SC to SRM PO, no coding required.
    If you want the code, here is the logic.
    Using FM 'READ_TEXT' you can retrieve the text, then use  BADI BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADIBBP_PO_CHANGECT_LONGTEXT. Set the Filter for PO.
    If this is the PO in Backend system (ECC), BADI BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI~CT_BAPI_POITEM_TEXT

  • Please help! I defragged my hard drive and now Illustrator CS6 is trying to open all of my complex Illustrator files with a "Text Import Options" box as if they are text files, and they are not opening!

    Please help! Illustrator CS6 started trying to open all of my complex.ai files with a "Text Import Options" box as if they were text files, and they are not opening!  Help!

    Hi Monika,
    I have spent the last two or three days trying to do what you suggested.  I uninstalled Adobe 6 from Windows.  Some files that CS6 placed on my system during installation remained, including fonts and .dll files.
    I had to abandon the Cleaner Tool you suggested because in one screen it allowed me to specify removing CS6 only, but on the following screen it only gave on option to remove ALL Adobe programs.  I could not do that because I didn't have the serial number handy for CS3 in case I want to reinstall it at some point.
    I tried to get technical help with the Cleaner Tool problem but no definitive help was available, so I reinstalled CS6 again without having the benefit of the Cleaner Tool.  I tried to get the serial number for CS3 so I could use the Cleaner Tool but spent 2 wasted hours in chat.  Even though I had a customer number, order number, order date, place of purchase, the email address used AND 16 digits of the serial number, in two hours the agent couldn't give me the serial number.  After two hours I had nothing but instructions to wait another 20 minutes for a case number.
    Illustrator CS6 is still trying to open some backups as Text and otherNone of the problems have been fixed.  I have tried to open/use the .ai files in CS6 installed on another system and am getting the same result, so I don't think the software was damaged by the cleaner.  The hard drive cleaner is well-known and I've run it many times without any problem to previous versions of Illustrator or any other programs.
    When I ordered, the sale rep promised good technical support and gave me an 800 number, but after I paid the $2000, I learned that the 800 number she gave me doesn't support CS6 and hangs up on me.  Adobe doesn't call it a current product even though they just sold it to me about 3 weeks ago.
    Would appreciate any help you experts can offer.  If I can't solve this, the last backup I can use was from June and I will have lost HUNDREDS of hours of work and assets that I cannot replace.
    Exhausted and still desperately in need of help...

  • Including text to contract and copy in PO

    Hi,
         I have created a text with a text name(PO_TEXT) in SO10 transaction. When creating contract(ME31k), in release order text, i have included the text that i have created.But it is not displaying the text that i have created. It is just saying that "INCLUDED PO_TEXT". I have created P.O against this contract. Even in print preview of this PO, it is displaying the same but not the actual text.
            Is there any configuration that is to be done for the text to be displayed,but not the text name.
              Please reply me as soon as you can.
    Thank you

    this is just what you are seeing on the paper or in the text overview, I am talking about the sapscript text.
    Go to your contract ME32K, go into the text overview, double click the text to open it in the editor.
    In the editior you can choose from menu GOTO > CHANGE EDITOR
    to switch between SAPSCRIPT Editor and Graphical Editor.
    In Graphical Editor the include line has a dark grey background.
    In Sapscript editor is an extra column for the command /:
    without this you just have text.
    How is it in your system?

  • Using Item UIDRef, can we get data as set in "text on path option" dailog box for each "text on path" item

    Hi all,
    I have a Item UIDRef but facing a problem for getting data as set in "text on path option" dailog box for each "text on path" item.
    What I did:
    - Getting the  pointer "IMainItemTOPData" using item UIDRef as
      InterfacePtr<IMainItemTOPData> mainItemTOPData(shapesUIDRef, UseDefaultIID());
    - This interface has the method GetTOPOptionData () which return ITOPOptionsData pointer
    - But SDK don't have "ITOPOptionsData" class implementation.
    Second Approch:
    - Used "ITextOnPathSelectionSuite" and getting the correct result for Desktop plugin.But I want the correct result in server plugin also.
    Anyone who has an idea how to get this using UIDRef, please let me know.
