Maintaining Texts for Procurement Alternatives/Consumption Alternatives and Procurement Processes 

Use

When displaying procurement alternatives, consumption alternatives and procurement processes, the system displays the technical name, which is made up of the characteristics of the Controlling level. For example, a purchase order with the vendor Mueller and purchasing organization EN03 would be given the name "Vendor:Mueller Purch.org.:EN03". In this transaction, you can replace the technical name with a name that you define. If you do this, the name that you define will be displayed on the next screen instead of the technical name.
