Renaming TextsLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

The name of a text usually corresponds to the key of the application object. However, in some transactions, this key is determined only at the moment the user executes the function 'Update'. Since texts are edited before this moment, they must have temporary names in this case. These names are then replaced by the finally valid text names shortly before calling COMMIT_TEXT.

Procedure

To do this, use the function module RENAME_TEXT, which replaces temporary names with the correct text names. You must call this function module before calling COMMIT_TEXT. Otherwise, the texts are stored under the temporary names. You can rename texts in the text memory only.
