Text Determination - Mandatory at Delivery Header

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I would like to know how to keep TEXT as a mandatory option at Delivery Header.

This TEXT has to be copied from Sales Document Header.

My question is how to keep TEXT as mandatory option for doing PGI?

I tried even by keeping "Text is obligatory" in the settings but it just throwing a message text is missing however still I am able to do PGI with out inputting the TEXT data.

PGI should fail because of not maintaining TEXT at Delivery Header

Request to share your ideas on the same. Thanks in advance.

Dear Victor,

In Delivery document, there are different types of texts and they exist at header and item level.

So, for example if your requirement is for Delivery doc header and you want incompletion log to be created if Header Text is missing.

Go to transaction VOTX, select Delivery Header, click Text procedure button, select your procedure, double click it.

In the next screen make Header text field mandatory.

In similar way, you can make other texts as mandatory as per your requirement.

If VOTX is outdated then Go to transaction VOTXN, select Delivery Header, click Change button, select your procedure, double click on Text ID's in Text Procedure.

In the next screen make Header text field is Text is Obligatory.

In similar way, you can make other texts as mandatory as per your requirement.

In the Delivery document, the absence of a text for a text type defined as mandatory in the text procedure is reported in the incompletion log and can prevent the creation of subsequent documents.

Hi Bharathi,

Thanks for your reply.

I have already tried on the same but its not restricting to do PGI.

I'm getting a warning message that TEXT was blank but still I can proceed with PGI.

Hi,

This TEXT has to be copied from Sales Document Header.

In IMG under

Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Text Control -> Define Text Types, Define Access Sequences For Determining Texts, and Define And Assign Text Determination Procedures

PGI should fail because of not maintaining TEXT at Delivery Header

Set the message Error in transaction OMCQ. You already have tried making this field as Mandatory.

You could also try using enhancement/BAdi if above procedure doesn't work.

Hi Srilatha,

Thanks for the reply.

I don't think OMCQ will serve my purpose in this scenario.

I need to search for other options available.
