Order long text not editable on the main screen of IW32 on some WOs only (EHP7)

Greetings Experts, Gurus and SAP Sages!

After upgrade to EHP7, we have found that the long text in the field of the main order screen (expanded under the Short Text) is not editable, for some order only. However, one can edit if they go into the regular Long Text screen. I'm convinced this is not an authorisation, development, Order status etc. issue.

SAP_APPL is 617 SP 0008

Did anyone else have this? I have not found a relevant Note...

Hi Sebastian,

Looks like it will solve your issue

2204730 - IW32 basic order view, long text screen 006/131 cannot be edited


You need to implement the note suggested by Vivek also.


Solution provided has per the note:


Implement SAP Note 2176194 for the changes in SAP-APPL and then continue with the implementation of this SAP Note.

You can then use the parameter EAM_ORDER_OCX_LTXT_1 to force the editing mode for the long text field. Refer to the steps described in SAP Note 2152447.

Regards

Terence

Hi there,

It might be little late but I just discovered that if there is no formatting done for long text then it will be editable on the initial change transaction (IW22).

So I changed:

ls_lines-tdformat = 'E'

to

ls_lines-tdformat = space 

OR 

ls_lines-tdformat = '/' 

And it is working as expected

Thanks Vivek & Terence! It seems that this issue must stem from the Note 2052690, which should prevent any long text formatting from disappearing. Thank you for your quick input, we will check this!

The notes are above - Did you implement the note I mentioned above 2052690 - Order header long text: SAPscript editor formattings disappear - as this is a cause of the Editor coming up in Dispaly mode. and look at the note Terence mentioned 2204730 - IW32 basic order view, long text screen 006/131 cannot be edited

Hello,

Please check with your Basis team if either Note 2052390 or 2052690 is implemented as part of the upgrade. If yes, then follow the steps in Note 2204730 - IW32 basic order view, long text screen 006/131 cannot be edited

You need to perform manual changes in SE80 as well to generate the EAM_ORDER_OCX_LTXT_1 parameter as part of Note 2176194.
