PO Text transfer from SRM to ECC

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Can somebody help me on the config to be carried to map the text from SRM PO to ECC. As of now only the header level text and item text of the first line item is been transferred.

The item text of the first line item appears for all the line item when the PO is viewed in ME23N.

SPRO settings have been done for ITXT and NOTE.. but still the internal notes are not appearing in ME23N.

Well did check the other threads but the config changes as mentioned doesnt work.

Will be really helpful if somebody helps me out.

Regards,

Catherine

Hello,

Which scenario you use? For extended classic scenario we do not transfer all data.

You have to maintain some customizing settings maitained in the table

BBPC_TXT_MAP_EXT (i.e Database Table for External Text Mapping). Note

that the system always checks for the customization and in the event if

it is not available, then the system simply maps the vendor text (ITXT)

of the PO item to the Material PO text (F03) incase of material and

Service Long Text (LLTX) incase of service in the backend PO.

This is the standard system behaviour in the Extended Classic Scenario.

If you do not maintain the customizing entries for text mapping in SPRO

this would be only for non EHP4 (note 1424590).

Note that Text map from ERP 6.0 EHP4 onwards is done by table

BBPC_TEXT_EXT. So if you are on ERP 6.0 EHP4 you should configure the

SPRO to use this in your system.

SRM Server->Cross-Application Basic Settings->Text Mapping

->Text Mapping for Inbound and Outbound Texts. The customizing needs to

be maintained here to map the texts between SRM and ERP.

As a workaround, you could also consider:

Here we have to use both the BADIs (BBP_LONGTEXT_BADI in SRM side,

BBP_INBOUND_BADI in R/3 side) to transfer the vendor text and internal

notes.

i) BBP_LONGTEXT_BADI > used to map the long text fields

to BAPI strcture based on the copy rules (defined in the

method GET_COPY_RULES).

ii) BBP_INBOUND_BADI (Method BBP_MAP_BEFORE_BAPI) >

Implement this BADI in MM system. Used to map the long

text with BAPI_POTEXITEM which is available in R/3 system.

RFC call to SRM is not required which would lead to

performance issues.

Hi Melina,

Thanks for the reply. Well we are in extended classic scenario.

In our case as i had mentioned earlier only the header text is transferred.

The item text is transferred but the text of line item 1 is only transferred and for the rest of the line items the text of line item 1 is copied.

The internal notes are not transferred at all...

Well with regard to the work around u had mentioned can u give me a sketch of the code to be implemented in the BADI.

Your reply will ne really helpful.

Catherine.
