Change description of standard SAP field

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am trying to change the description of standard SAP field VKBUR from u201CSales Officeu201D to u201CDistrictu201D. I changed it in CMOD Text Enhancements Data Elements. The description has changed in many places but not in transaction VA01/02/03. I looked at screen SAPMV45A-4301. Field VBAK-VKBUR has attributes u201CModification of a field from the ABAP Dictionaryu201D set to u201CFu201D. It means when description is changed in dictionary, it is not transferred to this screen. So how can I change the description of this field in these transactions.

Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Vince.

I'm afraid the only thing you could do in such cases is repairing/changing the standard object directly --meaning registering the object in the OSS and so on.

Kind regards,

Hello Alvarado,

Thanks for your response. I found out that there is no need for core mod.

In SE63 doing translating short texts for object type screen texts works.

However I am giving you points for your suggestion and closing this thread
