The field for description should be open for edit. Does your id start with a Z?

You are in...

SHIPPING -> BASIC SHIPPING FUNCTIONS -> TEXT CONTROL -> DEFINE TEXT TYPES?

Select DELIVERY ITEM and then the TEXT TYPES icon.

Hi,

Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions >Text Control > Define Text Types

Selected DELIVERY ITEM and then the TEXT TYPES icon.

Here I can see a small window after all the text id's, in this window I can enter Text id, but no option to enter description. Text Id I am entering is '0050'.

Thank you

Veni,

I was on an ECC 5.0 system.

I just logged on to a 4.6C system. The screen is a little different, but the description field is open for input. Not sure what your problem could be.

Try txn SU53 to make sure there isn't an authorization issue.

Are you sure you are on the right screen?

My 4.6C screen looks like this...

 Text ID  Description                       
                                            
 0001     Material sales text               
 0002     Item note                         
 0003     Packing note                      
 0007     Customer material text            
 001      Delivery texts 1                  
 002      Delivery texts 2                  
 003      Delivery texts 3

Veni,

Custom text types should start with a "Z". Try creating Z050 in transaction VOTX. If that does not allow a description, you can still save it.

Then use txn SM30 with view V_TTXID_SD. The description can be added/changed here.

Hi Norman,

Thank you. My screen also looks like yours. After this I have to add new text id and description. There is a small window down to enter text id, but how to enter description. I have authorization. Please help me.

Thanks

I just realized the problem.

That empty box on the bottom left is to FIND existing text ids.

On the first line, enter your new id and description. Yes, it looks like you are overwriting an existing one. You are not.

Press enter. Use the PAGE DOWN or PAGE UP icons to find the new id.

Hi Norman,

Thanks alot. I am able to add the text id and the description by the procedure told by you. Then I saved it. And when I was saying this came, 'Please process table entry transfer manually' so I clicked yes.It did not ask for transport. I went into menu option Text->Transport but the options are disabled. How to transport these changes and also can you please tell me, why it is not showing in 'Texts in procedure'.

Delivery->item ->text procedure ->Texts in procedure

Do I have to add the same text id and description here also.

I really appritiate your help.

Thanks

Yes, you have to add the new text id to the text procedure.

On the procedure screen, you can use the drop-down box. Your new text id should be in the list.

For standard delivery item, your procedure is probably 02.

You have to transport them from the main screen (where you see all of the icons and delivery header and item, etc). From here, the TEXTS -> TRANSPORT -> ENTER SHIPMENT path should not be disabled. Unfortunately this will transport ALL text ids and procedures. I do not know if you can restrict it without manually editing the transport. An SD functional person might know another process.
