Hi,
To Maintain Long text for characteristic in O12C , you need to
1) create the Char in T-code O25C with Data type character and click on Proc.Mgmt tab
2) Tick unlimited field situated right of Length and SAVE the char
3) Assign this char in O12C under instruction cattype (0). You can see the indicator in the field Text. Now it will allow to main long text for that char in O12C.
Hope this will help
