Asset Description missing from Asset dropdown in AS03

Former Member

Hi

I'm using fm BAPI_FIXEDASSET_CREATE1 to create assets and everything works fine except that those I've created don't have an Asset Description in the dropdown for AS03 - ie table ANLA field MCOA1 is blank. I can't find any way of filling this field in the import or tables parameters of the function module.

Does anyone have any suggestion as to how I can fill this field?

Thanks

Brigitte

MCOA1 is automatically built from TXT50 with a TRANSLATE TO UPPER CASE, so fill GENERALDATA-DESCRIPT. (If your system is not up-to-date, look at [Note 1180614 - Creating from posting: Missing asset description in F4 help|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1180614] (june 2008), in this case you may call ZCORMCOA from old OSS [Note 83864 - Assets without description when using F4 help|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/83864] to correct assets created before note correction)

Regards,

Raymond

Raymond, thank you. Applying note 1180614 solved the problem. (I don't know why I didn't see it when I searched notes for MCOA1.).
