  • 1.  "Add Long Text" feature not working

    Posted 12-11-2024 04:32

    Hi, we have multiple ECC instances corresponding to different business units.

    For 1 of the ECC instances (let's call it instance A), we're able to use "Add Long Text" (see below image in which the list of available long text fields show up - I tried in MM02 and ME22N):

    But for the other ECC instance (instance B), below error comes up upon clicking "Add Long Text" (I tried in MM02 and ME22N, and the same error) - "long text objects not available":

    Could something be missing or needs to be configured for ECC instance B? We're using WFM AutomateFM 20.3.1 for both ECC instances (I did double check via this guide) and Studio 20.3.1 (64 bit).

    Please let me know if you have any suggestions on how to determine root cause for above issue and possible further investigation or resolution steps. Thank you !

    Please compare the entries in this table in both systems: /WINSHTLQ/LTXMAP

    This is Winshuttle specific customizing that is part of the "Add Long Text" functionality in the WFM. 

    You should see entries for your Tcodes and specific long text objects included.

    @Jayasri Varyani @Sigrid Kok Thanks for the prompt response. Indeed, only instance A has entries in the table:

    No values for Instance B:

    Both instances, though, have the same WFM installed. What needs to be done then for instance B? Or anything else that I need to check?

    Hmm looks like something was not exeuted fully with the WFM install in your instance B. 

    You can simply add the entries in the table to match your instance A Or you could try re-installing the WFM with the help of your BASIS team.. 

    Please create a support ticket for further guidance on installation steps.

    hi @Jayasri Varyani How do I add entries to the table? I tried via t-code SM30 but it doesn't allow me. I'll check internally with the folks who updated the WFM last time. Will raise a support ticket as needed. Thank you.

    Hi Allan

    Maybe it's a permission issue.  I can edit the values in SM30

    Hope you can resolve it with your Basis team!

    Best Regards,

    Sigrid

    Thanks @Sigrid Kok. Yes this is exactly what I did. I will need to check in internally with our team. Appreciate Precisely's/Winshuttle's reliable and prompt support as always. Happy Holidays! =)

    Hi Allan

    Jayasri has a good suggestion, but first please check if you have the Winshuttle/Precisely FM installed and compare the versions if installed on both.  We add tcodes to support this functionality in various releases.  So if it's on an older release, that may be the issue.

    Best Regards,

    Sigrid
