using function module Read_text

[Former Member]

Hi Experts

I Am trying to extract info record Purchase order text.

I am using the function module " Read_text".

The input parameters which I am using are

CLIENT <cl>

ID BT

LANGUAGE EN

NAME <inforecordnopurchaseorgcategoryplant>

OBJECT EINE

However I find an inconsistency in data extraction.

If the Purchase order text is automatically populated from material master in the inforecord the function module

does not return back any data.

( There is status"*" on screen against such inforecord text)

When the Purchase order text is changed at inforecord level , the function module returns the correct data

(There is status no "*" on screen against such inforecord text)

Please do advise how do we get the correct data for both the above scenarios.

Thanks and Regards

If READ_TEXT doesn't return text for the inforec (you can tell whether it will or not by simply reading table STXH for the values), do a 2nd call to READ_TEXT supplying the MM master data text you've alluded to.
