Changing text label

Former Member

Is it possible to change a text label of a standard screen? For example: change the “PO Number” label of the sales order creation (VA01) (only the TA order type).

Can I change it using customizing?

Thanks in advance,

Ricard.

Hi Oscar,

SAP normally does not allow you to change the captions of its standard screen.

But you can use GUIXT for adjusting your screen layouts ( even logically - say for specific order types), changing captions , repositioning fields, removing fields etc.

But these changes will be specific to that particular machine only - if you want these changes to appear in all terminals then - u ll have to put those GUI Xt scripts in all the terminals' SAP working directory folder.

For more information about GUIXT , you can refer to this site -

Hi Oscar...

It is not possible you have to chnage the data element using access key...

You can modify in VA01 screen using access key...

In both the cases SAP will not support in future.

If the hint is useful… Say thanks by reward….

hi

good

1->

you can use text enhancements and limit the screen the label is displayed on.

2->Go through this code.

report zdemo.

tables: pernr.

data: i_tab type standard table of rsseltexts with header line.

initialization.

i_tab-name = 'PNPBTRTL'.

i_tab-kind = 'S'.

i_tab-text = 'XYZ'.

append i_tab.

call function 'SELECTION_TEXTS_MODIFY'

exporting

program = sy-repid

tables

seltexts = i_tab.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

  • MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

  • WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

endif.

reward point if helpful.

thanks

Hi,

You can change the text label from Standard to your own, using field exit.

Thanks,
