Short Text field in Me51n should be Disabled.

Dear Sap Gurus ,

I am held up with a requirement. While creating Purchase requisition using ME51N if the account assignment category is 'Q' (i.e project make to order) Short text field next to material number field should be disabled (user should not be allow enter any material descriptions) .

I discussed this issue with my functional consultant as he suggested there is SPRO configuration but it will be generic , applicable for all configurations (i.e for all types of account assignment category ).

I checked the user exit MEREQ001 and BADI ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST , but since the screen field is not available for line items level , not able make it grey out (disabled).

Could you kindly suggest me your views in solving this issue.

Hi,

Goto include LMEGUICJM and in the end of the method build_dynpro_fields, loop at gt_fieldcatalog and modify the property for disabling the short text field . You have to do it with a implicit enhancement.

The account assignment category is not available here, for this you can try some other means like export/import to memory etc....

Hi Kesav,

I hope as you suggested we have to do it through Enhancement spots.
