Hello,

We've been asked to look for a way to update a long text field in MM42 (long article description) and possibly add that field to our MM41 article creation form. After some research, it doesn't look like Winshuttle v11 or v12 support long text in MM41/42:

http://winshuttle-help.s3.amazonaws.com/studio/en/connect-sap/help/11/Record-long-text.htm

http://winshuttle-help.s3.amazonaws.com/studio/en/connect-sap/help/12/Record-long-text.htm

I also tried to treat it as a normal field, but as expected Winshuttle was not able to properly read or write.

Figured I'd post here to see if anyone has ideas on how we can mass update the long article description in MM42 at least, if not add it to the creation form. Thoughts?

Thanks,

Tyler

Hi Tyler -

In v12, t-code MM42 is supported by our easier Long Text functionality.  This would also require the v12 WFM being installed on your system.  Typically the way our long text works is that it's added as a follow-up to after the SAP data object is created, and that's why far more "change" t-codes are supported than creation.  So it would need to be a second script run following the MM41 creation. 

But in general with any long text field in SAP, if the t-code is not part of the list supported by our easier Long Text functionality, it can still be recorded but can only be done as multiple 72-character lines. 

Thank you,

Hi Jennifer,

Thank you for your response! Is the documentation I linked not up to date then? It doesn't include MM42 in the list of t-codes that have long text support in Winshuttle.

Can you explain the second part more in depth? My transaction script recognized that there was a long text field, but did not record the value with it. Also when I tried to upload to that field, it did not detect input for that step.

Thanks,

Tyler

Hi Tyler -

MM42 is included in the V12 list, just a bit further down.  I'm glad you were able to figure out how to add the long text in the traditional way.

Thank you!

Bonjour,

J'essaie de mon côté d'ajouter du  texte long en VA02 studio V11 mais même avec la procédure en ligne cela ne fonctionne pas.

Quelqu'un a-til un script a partager?

Merci

Hi Owoyemi -

There is an "add long text" button on the top ribbon of Studio in the Mapper. Once you click on it you will see the long text options that you can select.


I've attached an example script. 

Thank you.
