Hi Experts !
My client wants to create more than 40 length description.
Is there any possible to increase the Material Group description field length more than 40.
If increase, what are the problems will come.The std field WGBEZ is 20 char. and Description 2 is WEBEZ60 is 60 char.
is there any possible to use the description(WEBEZ60) 2 instead of description(WEBEZ) ?
Please suggests me questions.
Increase the field is possible or not. ?? It is advisable or not.?
Please guide me what will give best solutions for that..
Thanks,
Samy
Hi Sam

increasing the field is not possible according to my knowledge in standard.

My client wants to create - Agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry totally(40char).
In std allows only 20char. Actually we are created "Agricultural, farmi without meaning.
We are using reporting purpose , extend the length will get problem.
May i know what are the problem will come?
In Material Group description 2 is allows to create 60 chars. Is there any possible to use description-2 for reporting purpose?
About which reporting are you talking?
If you don't get the long description in the value help then check if the program fix from OSS note 1959179 - Material Group Description missing in F4 Value help (T023T-WGBEZ60) needs to be implemented in your system
Hi Juergen ,
Thanks for your valuable reply,
We need all reports where will you maintain the Material group..
In this Note provided the solution, that is Program correction. ABAPer only can correct the program right or else we can do it??? It is advisable or not?
One more question asking you?
if increase the material group description field length more than 40 chars , What are the problems will face Or else we cant change anything in standard?
Please suggests me both questions
Thanks...
This note is not a template for changes done by your own ABAPer, SAP notes can be imported to your system by anybody who has the rights to do so, there is usually no ABAPer needed, except it is explicitly said in the OSS note.
Where ever you maintain a material group you only maintain the number. you search by name but the system only stores the number in a PO, PR etc.
So there will be not any issues since the number length is not affected.
The reports will show what they had before. If they are designed to show only the short text like MC$< transaction for purchasing values by material group then you just have to live with the short information and may need to make it a kind of readable or you need to modify.
