Long Text problem in Process order header

Former Member — Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:06:21 GMT

Hi All,

I am using SAVE_TEXT FM to update the header long text in process order.

Also, I am updating the field AUFK-LTEXT = 'E'.

But when i display the order and click on long text, it does not display any thing as the text is not saved.

When I update the text directly in the order using COR2, it gets saved.

Does anyone know why the text is not being saved through FM SAVE_TEXT?

Also tried COMMIT WORK but was not successful.

The paramters I am passing to the FM are

TDOBJECT = 'AUFK'

TDID = 'KOPF'

TDSPRAS = SY-LANGU

TDNAME = sy-mandt+order number with leading zeros.

and the text lines in internal table.

Am I missing anything else here?

Thanks,

Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,

First check table STXH for the order which you saved manually, in order to verify that the values you are passing to the FM SAVE_TEXT are correct.

Also check the documentation which is supplied with this function to determine the INSERT and SAVEMODE_DIRECT values.

Also maybe check function COMMIT_TEXT and its documentation.

Robert

PS. also test the scenario in which text s/b added to already existing text. The SAVE_TEXT function wipes out everything and therefore you first should read the existing text (READ_TEXT) to retrieve the current text and save this together with the new text using SAVE_TEXT. (check function group STXD for possible related functions to use).

PPS. Thinking about my comments under PS., I recall now that this was the symptom of the long text passed on through BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE and therefore maybe this is not the case for SAVE_TEXT.

Dear Sandeep,

Please go to their documentation of that FM.

Go through below link Good code given by Jose.

Hi Sandeep,

Do not use sy-mandt in TDNAME.

it should be

TDOBJECT = 'AUFK'

TDID = 'KOPF'

TDSPRAS = SY-LANGU

TDNAME = Order number with leading zeros.

I hope this should help.

Best Regards,

Hi Nikhil,

You must append the client number to TDNAME.

Check in table STXH for an example.

Thanks,

Sandeep

Hi Madhu,

Thanks for pointing me to this post.

I tried everything with FM SAVE_TEXT except for passing the value X to SAVE_DIRECTMODE.

This was teh culprit.

Anyways, my problem is solved and I am awarding you full points.

Hi Sandeep,

Did you even read my reply? I believe I pointed out clearly in my reply for you to check the SAVE_DIRECTMODE parameter(!?)

I would expect to get the full credit for this?

HI Sandeep,

I would like to know which user exit you used for applying the logic. I want to update the long text in the process order as well but I am still finding an applicable user exit. The only one I found is EXIT_SAPLCOZV_001. Thank you very much!
