Hi ,
If you are looking to limit the number of characters that can be entered to the field from GUI then a global side effect and rule combination will help you achieve it . It would be something like this :
This is done by leveraging Side Effects under Rules - Rules Activation Conditions. You also need to set the Rule as Global for this to be effective across the system.
In there the following has to be set:
<$dDocTitle:maxLength=80$>
<$dDocName:maxLength =50$>
Set the above side effect in the rules and corresponding Profile need to refer it for being able to limit the number of characters that can be entered for Title and Content ID.
Custom metadata too can be controlled in the same way . For example, if metadata "Version" need to limit the number of characters being entered then "Side Effects" to be set is as follows :
<$xVersion:maxLength=50$>
NB - the maxLength parameter is not supported for fields of type Memo. It will only take effect on standard text fields.
Thanks,
