EKKN does not bring the cost center text in a query?

Former Member

I want to use the table EKKN to create a query where I can see the cost center value and the text.  I created the infoset and I can see the icon "T" next to the field EKKN-KOSTL.  I created the query in SQ01 and selected the two fields value and text, but when I run the query, the cost center value is shown but the text is empty.  Does somebody know how can I get the text field?  In the infoset I can see that the text field is linked to table CSKT-LTEXT.

Thanks if somebody can help me.

Yoma.

Dev, The idea with the query is to avoid use a join table because SAP already created the link between the value and the text.

Also when I run  the query using the order and WBS the system works perfectly, but for cost center it does not work.

I guess you need the cost center description and value..

Why don't you use SQVI for the query for table join EKKN and CSKT.

I can see the description and value.

Hi,

   I think its the behavior with some tables like EKKN.

   Please refer the note: 1918331 - SAP query: text fields are blank in the query result

Hi AKPT,

Thank you for your answer.  Previously, I have checked the note 1918331 that you suggested.  In the example on this SAPnote the table MARD-LGORT  had been assigned to the wrong text field.  In my case when I run the report RS_TEST_IDENTIFY_TEXT I get the right information:

The table CSKT-LTEXT include the description of the cost center.

The question in this case is if the field "Type how text determined" = READABLE_W_RECORD  has a special treatment.

Do you know?

Thank you,

Hi,

   Did you run the program mentioned in the note for test determination...

   Also, maintain the table entries as mentioned in the note and try again...
