Adding Vendor Name in PO email subject line

[Former Member]

Hello !

I have set the PO title to: &LFA1-NAME1& PO#: &EKKO-EBELN&

Also, I have set the program for replacement symbol to SAPMM06E / TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE.

The PO number gets replaced successfully, but the Vendor name is not coming through.

Please advise how I can accomplish this.

Thanks,

Anisha.

Hello Anisha,

You can also try by setting PO title to : &ADDR1_DATA-NAME1& PO#:&EKKO-EBELN&

Hello Anisha,

I'm also trying to use TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE for replacement of &EKKO- EBELN& in fax/email subject line. It is not coming through to subject line of output NEU.

Do you have any troubleshooting suggestions for getting at least the PO number to substitute into the mail title/subject line?

I've doublechecked the basic config in NACE and all seems to match the suggestions I've seen posted by others on the forum.

Would really appreciate any advice since you got it to work. Did you ever get the vendor name to also pull into the subject line next to the PO number?

Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards,

It appears that this cannot be done via config. This will need programming.

Hi Anisha,

Communication structure or the Purchase order header table will not hold the vendor name.

But you need to modify tour program to fill vendor name (LFA1-NAME1) from LFA1 linking Vendor number in EKKO with LFA1 ( i.e where EKKO- LIFNR EQ LFA1- LIFNR).

Hi Anisha,

Goto Table LFA1 and check whether Vendor Name exists for that particular vendor in field NAME1.
