Using GET_TEXT() function in macros and "macro texts"

[thomas_schulze2]

Hello experts,

we are trying to read language specific text elements in SDP macros via GET_TEXT(). THe SAP SCM help says ...

Description

GET_TEXT returns the language-dependent text of the TextID text element. The TextID text element must exist as a macro text in at least one language.

Does somebody know where you maintain / create these so-called "macro text" in SCM/APO ?

Regards

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Please use the following menu path in APO macro builder (t.code /sapapo/advm and your macro book) to maintain your locale specific macro texts.

Utilities -> Maintain Macro Texts...
*   GET_TEXT( TEXT_ID [; LANGUAGE] )
 *
 * PARAMETERS
 *
 *   TEXT_ID  = Text ID of requested text from macro text table /SAPAPO/ADV_TX
 *   LANGUAGE = Language key (optional), if the system should not get macro text in logon language

Thanks,
Rajesh
