How to Change Field Descriptions in SAP B1


Users can change the description for each existing field by using the Changing Description feature. This feature can be used provided the user has superuser status, or by authorizing "Renaming Field" in the General Authorization menu.

This Changing Description feature can be used by pressing the "CTRL + Double Click" button on the keyboard and mouse on the field you want to change.

In the example image above, we want to change the "name" field. When we press the "CTRL + Double Click" button, the "Changing Description" window will appear.



After changing the name and pressing the "Update" button, the description of the field will be changed according to what you entered in the Description.
