Cause
When all three types of text exist in info object, priority of mapping to HANA View is Long > Medium > Short.
In another word, when long text exists, it always be mapped to the description on HANA View.
Else if when medium and short exist at meantime, short text would never be mapped.

Scenario 1: InfoObject having only SHORT text
