Hi Rajarshi,

Please find the Detailed Note on Text Determination.

1) T-code VOTXN, for the text object Customer>Sales and distribution>click the Text types-->create your 4 digit Text ID

2) Come back to initial screen of this t-code and again select the text object Customer-->Sales and distribution and click change. Select the text procedure and double click on the Text IDs in text procedure. Here you create a new sequence and select the 4 digit Text ID you have created initially.

3) Assign the Text procedure which you have selected in step2 and double click on Text procedure assignment .Here you assign the Text ID to the Customer Accout group.

4) In the customer master, sales area tab>Extras menu>text, Select the text which you have created now and enter text into it. And save.

The text which you have created now ,can be used for multiple purpose(Ex. sales order,delivery,billing,pricing,inforecords,legal). for example in this case, You just want to display this text during sales order processing, then proceed as follows,

5)T-code VOTXN ,for the text object Sales document>Header>click the Text types-->create your 4 digit Text ID.

6) Come back to initial screen of this t-code and again select the text object Sales document-->Header and click change. Select the access sequence and create new access sequence(This access sequence is similar to that of in Pricing).Select this access sequence and double click the access sequence for text ids.Here in the first column this is Serial no. second column is text object(This is the area from which text has to be refer. In our case we have created the customer Text object for sales and distribution area, so i.e.KNVV) and the next column is Text id, this is the id which we have created at customer text object for sales and distribution initialy, at step 1). The next column is partner function, it will identify for which partner this text has defined. Next 2columns are Languages (if you want to define for all language or specified language), next column is for specified language for partner function. if you have any requirement to be fulfilled you can create those requirements in the next columns or else leave blank, save and come back to text proceudure.id.

7) Select the text procedure (for ex.01-Sales header) and double click on the Text IDs in text procedure. Create new entries Fill in the sequence and the text id which we have created for sales document-header(in step 5).There is a small check box in the 3rd column which is used whether the text should be referred or copied(this is used if you want to modify the text during the sales order processing or just display the original text as it is),next column is whether the text should be displayed while creating or it is not obligatory, last column is access s sequce,this is nothing but the sequence which we have created in step 6) and save.

😎 in the final step assign the text procedure id to the particular sales order.

As already we have created the customer text in the customer master record, so during the processing the sales order, the text should be displayed once the customer number is keyed in.

Apart from Above please find some more stuff below:

Text Determination Procedure steps

1.spro, SD, basic functions, text control, define text types.

There select the text object (Customer) and select the area (Ex: Sales and distribution) and click on Change. There u define Ur own Text determination procedure .Here u can maintain whether the text is obligatory or not

2. Assign the Text determination Procedure (Assign it to account group in case of Maintaining Text information at the customer).

3. Maintain the Text information (Ex: In customer master, go to sales area data, in the extra click on Texts and maintain the text information there).

For further information on Text determination refer to

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/90/758534c960a134e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm

Text also uses the same condition technique used by pricing.

A condition type = Text id in text determination

So

Create a text id for sales doc Header/item based on ur requirement

Assign the text id to text procedure.

Now the text id will appear in the Texts tab of the sales order item. Here you can go, select the text id and manually enter the text there and save the document.

You can also update texts automatically in the sales order by creating access sequences and maintaining master data for texts. But I am little unclear about access sequence and master data as it is different from access sequence creation for pricing procedure or outputs.

Dear Raaj,

You would configure text determination in IMG under

Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Text Control -> Define Access Sequence for Determining Texts

or Transaction VOTXN

Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Text Control -> Define and Assign Text Determination Procedures

The text determination procedure controls which texts and text types, for example, a note or customer reply, should be used in the service process.

Standard texts are text objects within the R/3 environment that can be used more than once. You can include them in master records or document texts. They can be used on output documents for external communication with business partners or for internal communication within an organization. For example, such standard texts are often included on customer billing documents.

Standard texts in SAP can work as fundamental blocks of communication between a business entity and its customers. Although the versatility of standard texts is virtually endless, controlling the creation and use of such texts can become quite an undertaking.

A functional team member usually faces several common problems while trying to design manageable standard texts in R/3. Promotional and informational messages usually need to be maintained by sales or marketing personnel, while the technical aspects of inputting and changing such messages in R/3 are limited to members of the functional team. Also, functional team members find it difficult to tie standard text determination on output documents to the data that is available on the document in question — for example, the sales organization or sales office. Instead, teams often turn to manipulation of print programs and SAPscript forms to accommodate a wide variety of scenarios. The technique I'll outline addresses all these problems and details the steps necessary to put a flexible and manageable standard text functionality in place.
