Text determination - need for reference text to appear in display mode

[Former Member]

Hi friends,

When we reference a text from a Customer Master to a Sales Order for instance, it appears in "Change mode" in the order.

However, the text is required to default from the Customer Master to the Sales Order in "Display Mode" as we do not want to permit text changes in the Sales Order.

In SAP TCODE VOTXN, there are 2 options available with Text IDs (in the Sales Order Header Text Procedure)

a) Text is displayed during copying

b) Text is obligatory and is displayed during copying

However, using any one the above options does not help. It still appears only in "Change" mode while transferring.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks,

Hi SAP Lover,

Try using the format character for fixed line: '>x'.

This can only be added to the text by a program. It cannot be added using the text editor.

It locks to text from being edited.

Hope this resolves your issue.

Hello SAP Lover,

In Standard you cannot influence if a text, which is determined in a sales document, can be maintained or not.

It always can be maintained - at least in the SAPscript Editor.

Maybe you can check / test, if a modification is possible.

For example, if the text is displayed during copying (-> Customizing), you can use CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '001' which is called from function module 'RV_TEXT_COPY'.

Here variant 'TEXT_MAINTENANCE_ALLOWED' can be cleared and so it is not possible to maintain the text displayed during copying.

But still the text can be maintained on the text screen and/or in the SAPscript Editor, which is called, e. g. when double clicking the text.

So you would need to check, if an additional modification, e. g. in screen SAPLV70T, 2100 can provide the desired result.

Best regards

Martin
