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.

  • 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

  • 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.
    regards
    Chandra.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • ANSI X12 EDI 850 V4010 - REF Field length Increase

    Hi,
    The standarad EDI V4010 definiation contains Segment:REF, Field:127, MaxLength:30 (ISA.GS.ST.REF:127), partner sending a EDI data with more than 30 characters for this field. As per their EDI guide lines the MaxLength allows upto 50 chars for this field.
    Have changed the field length from 30 to 50 chars in ANSI X12 850 V4010 message structure and re-generated EDI To XML mapping.When test the mapping in BIC tool, the EDI file is getting converted to EDI XML when the field value is more than 30 chars i.e upto 50 chars. Also Tested by giving more than 50 chars value for this field and it's failed to convert in BIC mapping tool saying 'The length of the field value is too big'.
    As the change working in BIC tool, generated sda file and deployed on PI QA system. While test the change after .sda file deployment the change of Field Length is not reflecting and it's only allowing upto 30 chars only., and more than 30 chars data for this field EDI files are failing.
    As the change working alone in BIC tool fine and not reflecting thefield length after sds file deployment. Any ideas about this issue and how to handle this requirement.
    Thanks
    Veera

    Hi John,
    If you see the documentation what you have given :
    Parameters:
    on: delimiters at the end do not appear
    off: delimiters at the end appear
    it clearly says the parameter is used for the delimiters, but not for truncating length of the fields in Seeburger.
    I'm not sure if you've ever used the BIC Mapping tool and what I'm really looking for is someone with experience in this area to give a solution that works for this question:
    By the way I have used the seeburger and this requirement we have done within XI because we have done all the rules within XI not in seeburger. But I will give a try with this requirement and will try to update you. Until unless I work with any of the issue I will not suggest. Even If I didnt I will try and then will suggest. Dont get me wrong.
    Cheers,
    John.

  • How to Increase the length of Material Code (MATNR)

    Hi all,
    I have the requirement to increase the size of Material code (from 18 characters to 30 Characters) .
    Is their any provision for this in ERP 2005.
    Let me know.
    regards,
    Sheo

    You should not increase the length of the field.
    You can do it by changing the domain for MATNR, but then you have to modify all programs and screens where MATNR is used.
    The only impact of this is that SAP will disown your implementation and will not provide any free support. You have to pay their hefty consulting fee every time
    Hope this answers,

  • UserID field length

    Hi All,
    What is the maximum length of userid field in ECC6. From the screen we can say its 12, but is there any paremater where we can set the maximum length or increase the length of the userid field.
    Your answers are much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Sandhya

    Hi,
    afaik, SAP user ID is stored on table USR02 on field BNAME and data element XUBNAME type CHAR with
    maximum length 12. Although CHAR allow more than 12 character length, but SAP standards delivers username (USR02-BNAME) maximum for 12 character-long only.
    modify SAP standard should be avoided to meet your purpose, but if it is needed, you may contact SAP Global Support first, elaborate your need and asking whether negative impact will follow that change.
    to change, ask your ABAP to change this (or any user with developer access key)
    hope it help you.

  • How to change the visible length in screen painter?

    Hi Guys,
    we have field in screen which is type to ATWRT but the visible length is set to 11. ATWRT is 30 char.
    Please advise on How to change the visible length in screen painter to make it 30?
    When I try to edit the defined length from 11 to 30. It wont allow me to.
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,
    Try the below method:
    Goto Screen Painter -> Double click on Input-Output field for ATWRT another screen will appear with attributes of Input Output field -> Increase the Visible length Value there. (Option of visible length is below the Name and Text attribut of Attribute windiw.)
    If the Visible length field isn't allowing change then declare it as a Char type instead of taking the DataType for Data Dictionary.
