Resolution

  1. Using the landing page for POs (in path 1 above) initially there appears to be no selection options, these are all 'grayed out'
  2. Select a single line (multiples cannot be selected) - for this example, we select '03 - Material PO Text', then immediately click on 'Text Linkages'
  3. Click on the 'search' icon to bring up the 'Text Indicator' selection
  4. Here, you can see the individual options

Where:

" " (null) - Text automatically adopted in target object (if item references a Material Master, the text is adopted by default, if this is not maintained, the field is open).

* - User  have text adopted in target object (the user  add / remove text here, it will be saved).

N - Text cannot be adopted in target object (meaning, this field will be locked / grayed out, and will be inaccessible the user  change)

Please, make your selection accordantly with your needs, save it and exit.
