  Cause:
  The primary cause of the ES035 error is the absence of a short text description for an object or entry that requires it. In SAP, many objects (like materials, vendors, customers, etc.) need a short text to provide a brief description, which is essential for identification and reporting purposes.
  Solution:
  To resolve the ES035 error, you need to add a short text for the relevant entry. Here are the steps you can follow:
  
  
  Identify the Object: Determine which object or entry is causing the error. This could be a material, vendor, customer, or any other entity in SAP.
  
  
  Access the Relevant Transaction: Use the appropriate transaction code to access the object. For example:
  
  For materials, use transaction code MM01 (Create Material) or MM02 (Change Material).
  For vendors, use XK01 (Create Vendor) or XK02 (Change Vendor).
  For customers, use XD01 (Create Customer) or XD02 (Change Customer).
  
  
  
  Add Short Text: In the relevant screen, locate the field for the short text (often labeled as "Short Text" or "Description"). Enter a meaningful short text that describes the object.
  
  
  Save Changes: After entering the short text, save your changes. This should resolve the ES035 error.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Field Length: The short text field typically has a limited character length (often 40 characters), so ensure that your description is concise.
  Language Considerations: If your SAP system is multilingual, you may need to provide short texts in multiple languages.
  Validation: Ensure that the short text you provide is unique and does not conflict with existing entries, as this can lead to further errors.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for specific details related to the object you are working with, as the requirements may vary.
  
  If you continue to experience issues after adding a short text, consider checking for additional validation rules or consulting with your SAP administrator for further assistance.
