Dear Chandra,

Text determination and copy controls are two defferent functions in the Sales and Distribution.

Regarding Text:-

Texts in Sales and Distribution

Purpose

In a business relationship, it is essential that business partners exchange information throughout the logistics chain. In sales and distribution, this exchange of information is supported by texts in master records and documents. You can maintain these texts for one particular customer or define them so that they can be used more flexibly.

Texts can be used in many areas of sales and distribution:

Sales notes for customers

Sales texts for materials

Explanations in order confirmations

Shipping instructions in deliveries

You can define as many text types as you require (sales texts, shipping texts, internal notes, supplement texts etc.) for master records and documents.

You can take the settings for the texts from Sales and Distribution Customizing under Text control.

Features

You store the texts that are to serve as information carriers in the system and in the output in the customer master record, the material master record, and in the sales and distribution documents. In addition the following processing and control functions are supported:

Texts are proposed from the master records in the sales and distribution documents, if you have made the appropriate setting.

Texts can be copied from a reference sales and distribution document into another sales and distribution document (e.g. from an inquiry into a sales order or from an order into a delivery).

The copying of texts can be made language dependent, if required.

You can change copied texts.

You can integrate standard texts into the sales and distribution documents

Regarding Copycontrols

Through this copy control configuration the flow of the sales documents will be defined.

Example:- We have standard SD flow

Inquiry>Quotation>Sales order>Delivery>Invoice

The above flow is happening based on the copy control settings.

If you go to these transactions you can get better idea
