Hi Lili,

For the fallowing purpose you can use the text.

-->Shipping Instructions

-->Warrenties

-->Terms of delivery

-->Order conformation details

-->Product ctelogs

-->Handling details

-->Packing details

-->LR no details.

-->Transaporter details.

Some data if you want in the output of the sales documents you can maintain in text tab then you can capture that in to output.

I hope it will help you,

Regards,

Murali.

Hello,

It is essential in a business relation ship, 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.

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.

Hi There

Text are important description which otherwise you want to be be printed at the time of taking output

Highest level wherein you can maintain tax is at the customer master level from where you can get it to copied to Sales Order Delivery and Billing this can be some important information which you want to maintain at Master's level and you do not need to input it every time at sales order level

You can enter text directly at Sales Order and Delivery level as well

Hope this information will be of some help to you
