Modify Item Description

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

Anyone know how to modify/add some text in the Item Description in Sale Order Form. I'm trying to do that; however, they alway keep asking me to add the new item.

For example

Item A: Orange

Item B: Apple

When I selected : Item A; Orange will show up as the item description

So, I wanna add Orange *Free** or other text

But it did not allow me to do so.

Thanks again.

Hi Mickey.......

This is possible what you are asking for. Simply select Item Code and go to Item Description field and edit the Item Name as your desire and in order to take the cursor ahead press Ctrl+Tab. This will allow you to add your desired Item Description.

But I would suggest you to put the extended text after Orange in Text or Item Details field provided by SAP in standard.....

Hi,

You cannot modify the Item description field for the selected item in the Sales Order as the data regarding the item is fetched from the Item Master Data table.

You can add a text line under the selected item to mentioned whatever you want regarding the item like *** FREE ***, **SAMPLE** etc

For that :

1) Open the Sales Order. Goto Form Settings in the menu above and in table format make TYPE field active and visible.

2) Enter the Item which you want

3) In the next Line select in the Type drop down TEXT and enter whatever your text is.

Hope it helps.

Kind Regards,
