Hi,

Open the sales order, display the text in Script Editor, check the header details there. It will give you the name and the other parameters.

See this FM used in a short example program below:


DATA: BEGIN OF tbl_lines OCCURS 0.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE tline.
DATA: END OF tbl_lines.

DATA: l_name LIKE thead-tdname.

PARAMETERS pa_vbeln LIKE vbak-vbeln.

START-OF-SELECTION.

  l_name = pa_vbeln.

  CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
    EXPORTING
      client                  = sy-mandt
      id                      = '0001'  "<----Header text
      language                = sy-langu
      name                    = l_name
      object                  = 'VBBK'
    TABLES
      lines                   = tbl_lines
    EXCEPTIONS
      id                      = 1
      language                = 2
      name                    = 3
      not_found               = 4
      object                  = 5
      reference_check         = 6
      wrong_access_to_archive = 7
      OTHERS                  = 8.

  IF sy-subrc EQ 0.

    LOOP AT tbl_lines.
      WRITE tbl_lines-tdline.
    ENDLOOP.

  ELSE.
    WRITE:/ 'Sy-Subrc = ', sy-subrc.
  ENDIF.

After getting the header text, use FM Write_Form to write it out in a SapScript. For item text use same FM READ_TEXT but object will be 'VBBP'. You can't get all the texts of the sales order at the same time - you'll have to call this function separately for header text and item text and pass the ID correctly. Please read the function module documentation which clearly states Generic entries in these parameters are not valid.

Hope this helps and please don't forget to reward points.

Cheers,

Sougata.

Changing the example program in my last post.


PARAMETERS: pa_vbeln LIKE vbak-vbeln,
            pa_posnr LIKE vbap-posnr.

START-OF-SELECTION.

  CONCATENATE pa_vbeln pa_posnr INTO l_name.

  CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
    EXPORTING
      client                  = sy-mandt
      id                      = '0001'          "Item text
      language                = sy-langu
      name                    = l_name
      object                  = 'VBBP'
    TABLES
      lines                   = tbl_lines
    EXCEPTIONS
      id                      = 1
      language                = 2
      name                    = 3
      not_found               = 4
      object                  = 5
      reference_check         = 6
      wrong_access_to_archive = 7
      OTHERS                  = 8.

Aditya,

We worked hard to solve your problem - you reward us with

just 2 points each and close the thread??!! That is very unfair

and annoying indeed.

Cheers,

Sougata.
