3696137 - Document Item Text Not Displayed in FIN_FO_CORR_OPI_LIST Form Template

• When generating correspondence using the form template FIN_FO_CORR_OPI_LIST, the Document Item Text is not displayed in the output. 
• The field is available in the form structure and XML, but it remains empty even though the item text is maintained in the journal entry.

• The FIN_FO_CORR_OPI_LIST form template retrieves item data from the underlying data source R_AccountsReceivablesItem, which reads the item text from the accounting document field BSEG-SGTXT. 
• By design, the system transfers the Document Item Text to the XML and form output only when the item text value starts with an asterisk (*).
• If the item text does not begin with an asterisk, it is not included in the correspondence output.
• This behavior is standard and is part of the Create Correspondence application logic.

• To display the Document Item Text in the FIN_FO_CORR_OPI_LIST output, maintain the item text in the corresponding journal entry with an asterisk (*) at the beginning of the text. 
• After updating the item text, regenerate the correspondence.
• The item text will then be transferred to the XML and displayed in the form output. 

For example:

• If the item text is maintained as *Reference 01, it will appear in the XML and form output as Reference 01.

• If the item text is maintained as Reference 01, it will not be transferred to the XML or displayed in the output.

This is the intended system behavior and not a defect. The asterisk acts as an indicator for the system to include the item text in the correspondence output.
