Dear Madhavi,
Edit that field in relevant R/3 table and increase the length.
Dont forget to change the same in the code of your FM Global Data declaration if you have.

Increasing field length on screen

Hi
I am new to OAF and need some help. We are using R12 and on one of OAF screen I need to make one of the field bigger on the screen. On database the field length is fine, but on screen the field is not big enough and users have to scroll to see the entire value. I need to make this field bigger so that users can see the entire data.
Please suggest.
Thanks

Hi,
If you have look at the VOimpl.xml file you can see the display size of the attribute which you want to increase the length.
If the display is smaller than the databae column, you can chage the .xml file and upload it again and once you bounce the apache server should do the trick.
Otherwise you have do all the process of extensions. as there is no other way you can increase front end.

How to use 2 date field as delta control in generic extractor.

Hi colleagues:
I have developed a generic extractor to extract logistic data: Purchase Orders and Invoice. In order to do that, I have defined a view joining EKBE, EKKO, EKPO, EKET tables on R/3. By this approach, the delta mechanism is supposed to be controlled by the EKBE-BUDAT field and also by the EKPO-AEDAT field. Both fields are available on the view used to create the Datasource. However, the Datasource creation allows us to define just one field as delta control.
I have a few questions regarding to this scenario:
1 - Is it possible to define 2 fields as delta control field on Generic Datasource?
2 - How about creating two similar Datasouces, one having AEDAT as delta control, the other having BUDAT as delta control, and then connect those Datasources to an unique Infosource on the bw side?
Best regards
Waldemar

hi,
1 - as far as I know it is not possible to define 2 fields
2 - this workaround is used often in cases like yours.
Just remember about order of extracting: first you extract new documents then changed

How can i increase table field length?

Hi all!
Little URGENT!
I am stuck up at one point. I have dmbtr currency field which has 13 length. Now i would like to increse the length of it as per client's requirement.
Can anyone guide me to do that?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Prasad,
DMBTR is standard SAP field having fixed length.If you want to increase the length, you need togo to data element and domain and change there, but it asks accesskey becasue its standard field. Thats is not advisable.

Chandra.

Customer exits for currency field in generic extractor

Hi,
I had a requirement to create a generic extractor. I've created a generic extractor by name 'ZXXZ_XXX_TAX_ATTR'. This extractor was created based on a table T007V in turn view. It has a currency and a quantity type field. Those two fields were not refering to a table fields but were refering a structure. So as per the note 335342, if we have fields of curr/quan type and are having reference fields as a structure field, we need to populate those fields throught a customer exit.
As I have read that the same problem has been solved by you with customer exit. So can you mail me the exit code as I am not a good in ABAP.

Can we increase the field length of Packaging material type description

Hi,
The field length allowed for packaging material type description is 20 characters. If i need to have this length to be increased to 25-30.Is it possible?
I mean the description that we give when we create new packaging material type.
Pls let me know ur suggestions.

Hi Dhilipan Nair,
Unfortunately there is no standard way to change this, the desc. field of the view (V_TVTY-VTEXT) is created from the value T685T-VTEXT which has been defined with the Domain TEXT20, so in order to add addition characters to this field, you would need to redefine the preceding field type.

Incoming Email Subject Field length increase

Hi,
In CRM 7.0,I need to increase the incoming email Subject Field length ,When i try to modify UI configuration,Subject fields are not enabled for configuration (Other fields in the same screen are enabled for modifications)..
Please give your inputs whether incoming email Subject Field length can be increased? if so,this should be done at UI level or mail form?
Regards
Shan

Hi Prasenjit,
Thanks for your interaction and response.
Actually I can to find out views and class details in CRM 7.0 by using F2 key..
The UI component is CRMCMP_CCS_EML and view is CRMCMP_CCS_EML/MailBody. The implementation class is ZL_CRMCMP_C_MAILBODY_IMPL. Since all the page attributes are string, There is a context class ZCL_CRMCMP_C_MAILBODY_CTXT, But no context node (Like you mentioned type CN as in *CN00, *CN01) within page attribute.
The main issue am facing here is that couldnu2019t figure out where to start the debugging for inbound mails where the subject field is truncated. I usually process inbound mails from SOIN transaction.
Moreover subject field can have more than 40 characters in outgoing mail, but the inbound mail subject field limited to 40 character and rest of them truncated.
Hope you understand my area of concern and provide me your input.
Regards,
Shan

Hi!

Thanks
Y

Hi,
You can do this in the FM i guess.When u capture the values from the section screen of the extractor check it that particular field is empty or not if its empty display an error message saying that field is compulsory.
i.e where u do the filling of range tables after that do a check for that field if its empty or not.
Hope this helps.

Increase of Field length. & vendor data @ sales documents

Dear all,
a. I want to increase the Sales employee - Remarks (field) length from 50 characters to 200 characters.
Can we increase the length of standard field's without using SDK? If yes, tell me how to do?
b. I am creating 2 UDF's @ marketing documents. - Title level
At first UDF - I want to see all the vendor master data (vendor codes) by formatted search
At the secound field - the address of the relevant Ship to r bill to address of vendor has to be filled down - as soon as i selected the vendorcode on the above field.
Can we map the UDF's as per the above requirement - with out using SDK & by using formatted search.
If - we can do with formatted search - help me of how to do & send me the query.
Thanks & Regards
ganesh

Ganesh,
The SAP database field lengths cannot be changed.
Reg the Formatted Search of Vendor Codes for the first UDF. The SQL would be like
SELECT T0.CARDCODE FROM [DBO\].[OCRD\] T0 WHERE T0.CARDTYPE = 'S'
YES, it is possible to trigger the FMS on the second UDF when the Vendor Code is filled in the firt UDF.
I am not clear with what you mean by the following
At the secound field - the address of the relevant Ship to r bill to address of vendor has to be filled down - as soon as i selected the vendorcode on the above field.
The Address information is in CRD1 table and you can use the first UDF's values in the WHERE clause of the SELECT statement in your second FMS
example:
SELECT T0.STREET, T0.CITY, .... FROM [DBO\].[CRD1\] T0 WHERE T0.CARDCODE = $\[ORDR.U_USERFIELD] AND T0.ADRESTYPE = 'B'
CHANGE U_USERFIELD1 with the name of your Vendor Code UDF
T0.ADRESTYPE = 'B' ..........FOR BILLING ADDRESS
T0.ADRESTYPE = 'S' ..........FOR SHIPPING ADDRESS

0WBS element (external format) as append field in generic extractor?

Hi Guru's,
we use an generic extractor for our CO-PA data, as a join of different tables. Now I get the issue with this internal format of PSP element. It is of NUMC 8 and my basic data PSP element is CHAR 24. As they are not matching I want to add the POSID as an append field. But how to do this?
In table PRPS I found the Include PRPS_INC an thought about using this in my extract structure? Is this possible? How do I need to go on and to simply have my additional field - with content! - in my extract structure?
First I used an append and put in my include. As there are no fields extracted to BI I think this is wrong!? How can I delete my append?
Thanks

Hi Siggi,
I have not created an special Append on the VEKP. I created an generic extractor on the VEKP. All fields of VEKP are available and I can hide or choose selection-field for all of these fields. No problem.
i created an append on the extract structure via RSA6 - enhancement. I know that after generating the generic extractor with RSO2 all settings done in former times in RSA6 are lost. But, my problem is: I can not see any of the fields I put into the append. They are not there. Not in ROOSFIELD and following not in RSA6. And that's the problem.
Thanks for your support.

How to increase the Field length

Hi All ,
I have to increase the Standard Field length in a transaction.
is that possible ? if yes , how we can do that ?
thanks and regards,
Deepak Rana.

it is not advisable to change the format of standard SAP table fields. most of them are being used in many different places, you will have a hard time making sure that all functionality still works OK after such a change.
maybe you can append new fields to ADRC and work with these.
Greetings
Thomas
