S4HANA Cloud Create Outgoing Invoices (FB70) - how to get notes (item long text)?

[MinhTriLe]

Hi,

I've been trying to get notes (item long text) entered using GUI app Create Outgoing Invoices (FB70) in S4 Cloud.

And I've seen this KBA 2971277 - Long text is not displayed in Manage Journal Entries.

But it doesn't say how I get the notes that I have entered. I want to find out if there is any CDS view that can support this.

Has anyone been able to get Item long text in FB70 in S4 Cloud?

Cheers,

Tri

Thank you for your request, @MinhTriLe.

Note 2971277 - Long text is not displayed in Manage Journal Entries suggests using notes instead of long text. Please follow this suggestion. 

API Overview | Accounting Document - Read | SAP Business Accelerator Hub does provide for header and items' texts: DocumentItemText and AccountingDocumentHeaderText. Please try them out with your system.  

The Sandbox environment has a downtime until Thursday, March 06th 15:00 CET

If this helped you address the request, please mark accordingly. Thank you.

Hi AndreasMuno,

I've checked the SAP note and it does not meet my requirements since I can't see the item long texts of previous journal entries.

I'll close this question because no existing function is available for that requirement.

Regards,

Minh

In S/4HANA Cloud, the Item Long Text (Notes) entered in FB70 (Create Outgoing Invoices) is typically stored in the long text table (STXL)
and linked via object key references. However, standard CDS views may not always expose this directly.
To retrieve the Item Long Text, try using:
1. CDS View I_JournalEntryItemText – This might provide text details for journal entries.
2. Read Text using Read_Text Function Module (for on-premise, limited in Cloud).
3. Check Extensibility – Use Custom Fields and Logic (APP ID: F1481) to extend standard views.
4. Explore API: Journal Entry - Read (A2X) – This may provide text-related details.

Hi umasaral,

I've had a look at your 4 options.

1. I can't find CDS view I_JournalEntryItemText in CDS Views | SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition | SAP Business Accelerator Hub. I'm not sure if I miss anywhere.

2. Read_Text Function Module is not released for ABAP Cloud (Solved: Read_text( header _text ) value in Sap Abap on Clo... - SAP Community)

3. I'm not sure extending standard views will help since I want to retrieve the text entered in FB70, not creating another field.

4. API: Journal Entry - Read (A2X) doesn't have any relevant text fields.

Regards,

Tri
