Hi,

You need to get the access key in order to change the Short text of any standard data element ...

DO NOT GET AN ACCESS KEY! this counts as a modification to standard which is not encouraged.

You can change the texts for the underlying data element as follows:

CMOD -> Goto -> Text enhancements -> Keywords -> Change -> <Enter the name of the data element you wish to change texts for KVGR5>

Change and save the texts.

Hope it helps.
