Show description of a material

Hi experts,
I am wondering if it's possible to show the description of a material when you introduce the material number and press INTRO. If I change this material number and press INTRO again I would like to refresh the new description.
The restriction is not using HTMLB, only native HTML.
Could someone give me a short example?
Lots of thanks,
Javier

Hi,
I´ve have to activated this option beacuase I need to put some code when the user insert a row:
lr_config->if_salv_wd_table_settings~set_data_check( if_salv_wd_c_table_settings=>data_check_on_cell_event )
So, I put my code when the ON_DATA_CHECK event is triggered:
IF NOT r_param->t_modified_cells IS INITIAL.
    DATA: ls_mod_cell TYPE salv_wd_s_table_mod_cell.
   FIELD-SYMBOLS: get_static_attributes(
            IMPORTING
              static_attributes = ls_tracur_cab
      CASE ls_mod_cell-attribute.
        WHEN 'MATNR'.
lo_el_tracur_cab->set_attribute(
EXPORTING
value = l_maktx
name = 'MAKTX' ).
      ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP
ENDIF.
If I comment the code in bold letters ( the set_atribute method) when the user insert some material the focus of the mouse continues in this cell but when I insert this method the focus of the mousse disappear, and the user have to click again in the ALV to continue introducing data.
Thanks a lot.

Dear Experts,

How to prevent error message for material description in MDG material detail screen, when user click on check action.
Thanks
Sukumar

Hello Sukumar
In IMG activity "Configure Properties of Change Request Step", you can completely deactivate the reuse area checks (but will then loose all other checks of the backend business logic as well).
You can also set the error severity of the checks from Error to Warning (per CR type, not per check).
Or you provide a default value for the material description, e.g. by implementing the BAdI USMD_RULE_SERVICE.

How to show Descriptions of Query on a Web template(statistics)

hi I have created a custom Query which shows data for certain queries running, but the data keeps on showing me technical name of the queries, I want my report to show description so it makes sense to my manager as they donu2019t understand technical names of the queries. I have tried changing them to text, key etc they wont work.
Query is 7.0 web template is 7.0

Amer,
Actually, the way I read these notes, showing the technical name on the query selection screen is the problem (a.k.a., "symptom") that is being addressed, so I am assuming that the "fix" they are implementing is to show the description instead.
Just trying to help...

Missing parts list shows only the first material.

in case of MTO cycle, when i create a plnd order to prod order,in material availability check, system is not displaying all the materials for which shortages are there, instead its showing only the first material.
any help

You need to ensure that these materials are actually missing. You check this in transaction CO09 (SAP Note 89362). The checking rule will be whatever you assigned to the production order type in OPJK.
Also, you need to ensure that the "missing" materials are actually checked for availability - The checking group is assigned in the MRP3 tab of the material master. In OVZ2, look at the entry for this checking group and ensure that "No Check" is not ticked.

How to search show descriptions in Podcasts

Most podcasts provide a show description accessible by right clicking the show. My question is how to search these descriptions by keyword. Is this possible? If so how?
Thanks!

iTunes will search the Description if you turn that column on in your current view. Right-click on the column headings, then select "Description" to mark it with a check.

Showing description and not key when using check tables in Web UI

Hi,
I have added an field using EEWB to Opportunity Item, and connected it to check table CRMC_CUSTGRP1. It shows fine, and we can select from the check table using the web ui.
However it shows the key column and not description column from the table. Is there a way to make the web ui show description instead of the key?

Hi,
I debugged GET_V_S_STRUCT, and it tries calling
ME->VIEW_DESCRIPTOR->GET_FIELD_GEN_VALUEHELP_DL
ME-VIEW_DESCRIPTOR is an instance of class CL_BSP_DLC_VIEW_DESCRIPTION, which does not contain the method GET_FIELD_GEN_VALUEHELP_DL, and obviously it throws an CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_METHOD exception, which leaves the value table empty.
Do you have any idea why, or have I missed something fundamental?
Regards

Danny Phantom Information (Show Description)

I'm referring to the information field here ("i" button or "Show Description") NOT the description field that can be found under the "Video" tab in "Get Info."
Not a major issue but I found the information for Episode 2 and Episode 3 of Danny Phantom to be incorrect.
The information for Ep2 has been placed for Ep3 and vice-versa.
Is there any way to correct (edit) this information?

yes, it works perfectly for package or table
but if i try DESC pkg_test.myproci have ORA-04043: object pkg_test_ata.myproc does not exist
A popup describe, or a tooltip with the parameters, or some mechanism where you could copy the arguments into the code for named parameters would be nice. Why not check to see if someone has requested this feature and vote for it, or request it yourself?

"Show Description" for podcasts--key equivalent?

Is there any way, directly or via a decent fudge, to have a command-key equivalent for the "Show Description" selection you can get for a podcast via the contextual menu? I use this a lot, and right-clicking over and over is irritatingly slow. Yes, I know you can leave the window open, but I also use this on my MacBook, where screen real estate is somewhat precious.
I tried Show Description from Doug's Applescripts
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=showdescription
but not only does it bring up a different window (not the same one you get from the contextual menu) but what you get is mostly code and not easily read. I don't want to edit the code, just see the long description.

After selcting the value from F4 press enter, it will go through the PAI and PBO. Write the code to select the description from that check table and pass into that description field. In the attributes of that description field, goto Program tab Check the check box Output field and Output only.
Check the sample program:
TABLES: addr1_data.
DATA: ws_country_desc TYPE t005t-landx,
      okcode TYPE sy-ucomm.
CALL SCREEN 100.
*&      Module status_0100 OUTPUT
      text
MODULE status_0100 OUTPUT.
IF NOT addr1_data-country IS INITIAL.
    SELECT SINGLE landx FROM t005t INTO ws_country_desc WHERE
                                  land1 = addr1_data-country
                              AND spras = 'EN'.
ENDIF.

Showing Description text

Hi All
I have a report with columns PRODUCT NUMBER (from Product Master data), PRODUCT DESCRIPTION (from Product text table) AND SALES AMOUNT
The report shows the title Product Number and Sales Amount, but not the title for Production Description. Is there a way for me to either hardcode it, or get that title to show?
This is what I mean:
Product Number
xyz
zbc
etc
cpu
monitor
box
Sales Amount
500
200
50
I want the "Product Description" title to show up above CPU, instead of the blank.
Please help!
Thanks!
Pooja.

Hi Pooja,
Couple of options:
1. Type it in and save the workbook.
2. Write a VB macro to place the words in the specified cell
3. Make the description as an attribute of Product Number and then display the attribute in the report.
Hope this helps...

APEX: Show description in Interactive Report column

Hi experts!
I need to show title and description in the headings of an interactive report in APEX. So when the user places the mouse on the heading of the column, a description message is displayed.
In the heading field, I have introduced this string:
<SPAN TITLE = "Secció Numèrica">SC.N.</SPAN>
Where "Secció Numèrica" is the description and SC.N. is the title.
This works fine in the report and the description is shown, but the problem is:
When the user click on the 'select columns to display' action, the displayed label is
<SPAN TITLE = "Secció Numèrica">SC.N.</SPAN>
instead of "SC.N." or "Secció Numèrica".
Obviously the customer does not want to see that string. I have been looking for any solution in manuals and forums but with no results.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Javier

It is solved.
The customer is happy having the description displayed in the Help Text section, so it is shown with the info tag.
Regards
Javier

Report showing vendors for particular material groups

I am trying to perform an analysis to determine vendors which have procured items for specific material groups. I have 64 different material groups which represent indirect materials and I want to be able to determine what vendors have been procuring these materials. I have run transaction ME2C to examine purchasing documents, however there is way too much information and the system cannot generate the list.
I was curious if there was some aggregate report that I could use in the Logistics Information System. I know the Purchasing Information System has Standard Analysis for Material Groups, however I have to drill down to each Material Group and change the breakdown by Vendor to get the list and this can be somewhat time consuming considering I will have to do this 64 times.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Don

use transaction MC$<
execute the selection
in the report choose from menu settings > characteristics display
and select either Key or Key and description
then choose from menu Material group analysis > Export > transfer to XXL

Showing description of a parameter in the report

Hi all,
I have a requirement where I need to show the description of a parameter in the report.
For eg:
CODE              DES
AF          Associated Feature
BG          Background
BGA          Background Ambient
BCA          Bkgrd Comm Ambient
BC          Bridge/Cue
CJ          Combination M Jingle
CS          Combination M Promo
CT          Combination M Theme u2026 and so on.
The parameter is on the DB field u2018CODEu2019. Here when the user selects the parameter value u2018AFu2019 the report should show the description u2018Associated Featureu2019 in the Report Header.
I am using stored procedures in the report and lookups(coming from a package) for the drop down values of parameters.
I thought of creating arrays in the formula editor but I could not find a way to pass values to an array variable from a field. (I have to enter all the values in array manually to create it. But we have approx 50 reports which have CODES of more than 40. So itu2019ll be not feasible).
Is there any way to achieve this requirement?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Try to use add command and write the query like this
select code,description from table where code={?Parameter}
Now link this command with your stored peocedure using left outer join and place the field in the report header to get the description.

Raghavendra

How do i show descriptions instead of dimension values at presentations ?

We are facing a problem that could be a BIBeans problem or could be an OLAP problem, please inform if to change forum:
We are using jdev 903/BIB903 accessing an AW created at Oracle OLAP 9205 with AWM.
All our dimensions were created at OWB 10g and deployed to RDBMS following the general rules below:
DIM X
ID_X - sequence primary key
CD_X - original key from source systems
DS_X, NM_X, and so on - description fields and hierarchy fields related to this record.
i.e.:
SQL> desc dim_rota
Name Null? Type
ID_ROTA NOT NULL NUMBER(6)
CD_EMPRESA NOT NULL NUMBER(2)
CD_FILIAL NOT NULL NUMBER(2)
CD_ROTA NOT NULL VARCHAR2(3)
NM_FILIAL NOT NULL VARCHAR2(40)
NM_ROTA NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
CD_SETOR NOT NULL VARCHAR2(1)
ID_SETOR NOT NULL NUMBER(6)
NM_SETOR NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
this dimension has 1 hierarchy with 2 levels called SETOR and ROTA.
when we generated the AW using AWM, each field (except ID) is created as a variable dimensioned by DIM_ROTA, as shown below:
->listby dim_rota
35 objects dimensioned by or related to DIM_ROTA in analytic workspace AW1
DIM_ROTA_CD_EMPRESA
DIM_ROTA_CD_FILIAL
DIM_ROTA_CD_ROTA
DIM_ROTA_CD_SETOR
DIM_ROTA_CREATEDBY
DIM_ROTA_FAMILYREL
DIM_ROTA_GID
DIM_ROTA_INHIER
DIM_ROTA_LEVELCOLMAP
DIM_ROTA_LEVELREL
DIM_ROTA_NM_FILIAL
DIM_ROTA_NM_ROTA
DIM_ROTA_NM_SETOR
DIM_ROTA_ORDER
DIM_ROTA_PARENTREL
ID field was concatenated with level name to generate the dimension value - so, for the following relational record:
SQL> select id_rota, cd_rota, nm_rota from dim_rota where ID_ROTA = 233;
ID_ROTA CD_ROTA NM_ROTA
233 A99 A99-Consig. Sup. Setor A
we have at multidimensional side:
->LIMIT DIM_ROTA TO 'ROTA.233'
->rpr dim_rota
DIM_ROTA
ROTA.233
->dsc dim_rota_nm_rota
DEFINE DIM_ROTA_NM_ROTA VARIABLE TEXT <DIM_ROTA DIM_ROTA_HIERLIST ALL_LANGUAGES>
LD IMPLEMENTATION NM_ROTA Attribute for DIM_ROTA Dimension
->rpr down dim_rota w 30 dim_rota_nm_rota
ALL_LANGUAGES: AMERICAN_AMERICA
-------DIM_ROTA_NM_ROTA-------
------DIM_ROTA_HIERLIST-------
DIM_ROTA ROTA
ROTA.233 A99-Consig. Sup. Setor A
here comes our question: how do we show at BIBeans designer/presentations the related descriptive fields and NOT the dimension values themselves?
thanks in advance,
Flavio

There a re two additional attributes that need to be mapped within OWB for each dimension:
Long Description - this is used by the presentation beans and query and calc builder to replace the dimension values with more meaningful/end-user friendly descriptions
Short Descriptions - this can be used where the long description is too long for display purposes. In BI Beans 10g Release 2 (due out soon) you will be able to select between long/short descriptions when using many of the new tags.
These new attributes will be automatically picked up by the OLAP Bridge in OWB and automatically added to the OLAP catalog.
Hope this helps
