hi,
There are two kind of messages you can create,
1. Short text messages
2. Long Text messages.
Short text messages are 'Self Explanatory' ie, they tells you the description( For example, wrong material number !) . So for Short text messages, you can click on 'Self explanatory' Check box.
For creating long text messages , you dont have to click on check box 'Self-explanatroy' as they are huge enough which needs a lot documentation. Note that you cannot create a long text for self-explanatory messages.
To create a message long text in SE91:
1.Select to switch to change mode.
2.Place the cursor on the corresponding message.
3.Click the Long text pushbutton.
4.This starts the SAPscript editor.
5.Enter the long text.
6.Carry out a check in SAPscript editor.
7.Save your data.

hi,
Sometimes Error are so complicated that you cannot know the error by message. So you can give description of the Error.
By Clicking on 'SELF Explanatory' it is believed that the message tells everything about the Error and need no further Description..

Hi,
Every Message in a Message Class consists of a Short-Text and a Long-Text.
Short Text is used for Short Description of the Message ,
while Long-Text is used to provide a Larger Description.
When we check this Self-Explanatory Checkbox, the System assumes that a Short-Text is enough for Explaining the Message, However we can Maintain a Long-Text for this kind of Message too but before giving the Long-Text for this Message we get a Warning that This Message is Self-Explanatory.
Best Regards,
Sunil.

Hi Hosmath,
if you are not maintaining any documentation for the message that you have create in SE91 then you have to check the message as 'self explanatory',
plz refer to the link:
