Header Text data

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

As a beginner, having a small doubt in relation to reading data from header text.

I wish to know.

1. Where do we define Header texts for purchase orders?? example Header text ID = F06, F14 etc.........

2. How do we use them in the program.

The requirement is to actually display "delivery terms" and "ship via" in a purchase order in a SAP script layout for a purchase order.

delivery terms is to be taken from header txt ID = F14 and ship via from Text ID F06.

Your help wud be appretiated.

Go to the transaction for PO (ME21)then click on the Header> Texts>Texts Over View. Here you can see all the Header Texts and also create them.

To use text in program, you have to use FM 'READ_TEXT' to get the text.

To get the parameter of this function Module, you have to go to the text you want, diplay it in plain page mode and then via the menu 'GO TO' --> 'HEADER' .

A popup window give you : object id, name, ...

The table "t_tdline" contains the entire text .

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
  EXPORTING
*   CLIENT                        = SY-MANDT
    id                            = w_id
    language                      = sy-langu
    name                          = w_name
    object                        = w_object
*   ARCHIVE_HANDLE                = 0
*   LOCAL_CAT                     = ' '
* IMPORTING
*   HEADER                        =
  tables
    lines                         = t_tdlines

Hope this helps,

Erwan.
