Hi,

Is there any way to increase the description length from forty characters?

Thanks,

Rachita.

Hi,

Use the Long Text field in Material Master for very long descriptions

For other consideration, we use the Sales Text for the material description. Our 'product title' allows us (Canada), to maintain both English and French descriptions as required. We use the Basic Data text for details about the product itself in paragraph format. You may find it helpful to keep those two texts separated if you maintain both and if you plan to use the product catalog in the future. You can also modify your SAP scripts if necessary to display the long material description on your receipts/delivery notes if required from which ever text field you choose.

Reward points if found helpfull...

Cheers,

Siva.
