different invoice desc required

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Diff sales invoice desc required in case of materials, please guide where we can maintain the same so that it can be shown in sales invoice thru abap

In the sale order, maintain the item text by going to the sale order line item. In the invoice smartform you have to write the code to pick up the text and print against description. If text is not found then material description can be printed. I am assuming that you need more that 40 character length.

Otherwise, you can directly change the material description in the sale order (which doesnt have any impact on the material master) and in the smartfrom you can pick up this field rather than fetching the material description from the material master.

Hi

Actually editing every sales order is not suitable instead of that in material master in sales text view or in data text in additional field of material master we want to maintain something, which will be then incorporated in smart forms for printing

You can use the material sales text available in the material master. In the smartform, code can be written to fetch the desciption from material sales text.

can you tell me in which table or structure is storing material sales text values

Material sales text (or for that matter any text) will not be stored in table fields. You will have to use function module READ_TEXT to fetch the text. Check with your ABAPer who would be able to do it quite comfortably.

The input data required for the FM:

Language: EN

Text ID: 0001

Text Object: MVKE

Text Name: material code + sales organization + distribution channel (ABAPer has to concatenate all three).

Goto the material master sale text. Click on the editor icon at the bottom of the screen. In the next screen use the menu path Goto --> Header. Copy all the field values in Text Name, Language, Text ID & Text Object.

In SE37 enter READ_TEXT and execute. Give all the data which was copied earlier in the respective fields and execute. At the bottom of the screen in the tables tab you will find result. Click on result value.

Billing Document title is specified for a Billing Document Type in SPRO. You can define different Billing Document Types if that can server your purpose.

If config is not possible check out:

Printing the header line of a billing document can be supplemented or changed.
