Request for changing field size

Please increase the size of OITM.ItemCode and of OITM.SWW to at least 30 for each of it !!!

This suggestion has been given many time in the forum. Honestly, I think its a very bad suggestion.
I thought about that too, but its not really a solution that works in 'real life'. You will have dozens of selection masks, lists and so on throughout B1 that are based on the ItemCode field, and are even not adjustable to use the description field instead. You end up in a mess...
However, it seems that this is a requirement that comes up a lot. I think SAP really should extend the length of ItemCode to at least about 30 char.

  • How to create a New Tranport Request for changed  Extract structure

    How to create a New Tranport Request for changed  Extract structure ?
    Hi Experts,
    I have a FI AP Generic Datasource containing extract structure with appended fields.
    It has already been activated and transported to Testing System.
    Now, I am to create a new transport request for this DataSource and Extract structure.
    I do not want to delete and recreate the Generic Datasource.
    I am trying to look at the options in the extract structure top menu from where I can create a new Tranport Request.
    Please let me know the steps
    URGENT

    Hi Dev,
    Once you send the transport request for any data source from Dev to Testing you wont find that again in your Dev (I mean the TR). So, when you change anything for this data source or view now in Dev and try to save it, it will ask for a new transport request and here you can mention a new one starting from View then activate it and go to RSO2 regenerate it and use the same transport request for this too. When you transport this TR to Testing Environment the data source will automatically get changed.
    Hope it helps...

  • How to change field size using SQL against an oracle Database

    I am an admitted novice user, looking to become more proficient.
    I have a field in a table that I need to expand the field size. The table is called Inquiries. The data type is text. The current Field Size is 10. I want to increase it, to either the max, or somethign long enough to fit TECHNOLOGY LEADERSHIP PROGRAM.
    What is the SQL command to change the field size, and what is the max for a Text Field Size

    And/Or, an even better question might be,
    Do I need to use SQL*PLUS to do this, or are there better tools. I.e, I like how in Access, you can open up a database in Design view and just change the amount for the field size. Is there a similar "easy" method to do something like that with an Oracle database.
    My current version of the server/database is:
    Connected to:
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
    With the Partitioning option
    JServer Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
    I was thinking I had to do SQL commands to perform the action, but there may be another way that I am not thinking about with all of the tools at my disposal. When I installed Oracle on my desktop, I installed most of the management tools and networking services, if that helps

  • IBase When Creating a Request for Change in Solution Manager 7.1

    Hello all,
    We recenlty upgraded our sandbox system to Solution Manager 7.1 SP3 and are currently investigating the new ChaRM functionality with the new CRM UI. Our company had configured ChaRM back in 2007 and has been working very well since the initial delivery.
    While I was following the Request for [Change process simulation from RKT|https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000478022011E/index.htm] on our sandbox system, I had noticed that the iBase and Component that we have  created in transaction IB52 prior to the upgrade were not showing in our search when we were defining the Change Request Scope section. In the documentation that I have read leading up to the upgrade, there have been no mention of the iBase/Component data becoming invalid post-upgrade nor have I found a conversion process.  I have done a search here on SDN and on SAP Notes to see why the iBase and Components were not showing up.
    Has anybody encountered this issue since the upgrade to 7.1 or is there something I need to do in IB52 in order for the iBase/Component in the new CRM GUI?
    Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    yes in 7.0 it worked for me too, that is because in 7.0 ChaRM searched for projects based on the IBase you selected.
    If there were more than one project where this system is involved you got a pop up where to chose your project.
    In 7.1 you chose the project directly, instead of let the system search for you.
    And depending on what productive-systems are in this project you get your Ibase list.
    If you don't select a project at all you will still get a list of all Ibases in your system.
    Iif you ask the SAP, they will allways tell you that you have to have a productive system in your project, at least as you pointed out with a virtual system.
    I did not read i t though and therfore ca nnot provide any sources.
    This is all based on my experiences.
    Best Regards

  • SP2013 Online - Approval Workflow "Request for Change" customization

    Hi,
    I am need for modifying the flow of request for change option in Approval workflow. 
    Whenever a user requests for change, I need to change the current task status as "Change Request" instead of completing the current task and creating a new task. Also, send an email notificaton to the requestor to make the changes. 
    Requestor will then make the changes and send a seperate email to the approver to review and approve the changes. After that reviewer will be appoving the workflow task.
    I am need of this process flow as my requestor group will not have access to workflow task to re-initiate the workflow after changes. 
    Please advice.
    soundar

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to change the current task status as "Change Request" instead of completing the current task and creating a new task whenever a user requests for change in your SharePoint Online.
    For your issue, you can Copy & Modify the Globally Reusable Publishing Approval Workflow using SharePoint Designer and create a new Task Outcome for "Change Request".
    For more information, you can refer to the blog:

  • How to create the request for change of selection text into other language.

    Hi,
    In my object requirement is that when login through Japanese language,  then on selection screen selection text should appear in Japanese language. For that I have maintained the text in Japanese language the program where we define the selection text there from translation I have maintained the text in Japanese but while maintain the text it didn't ask me for REQUEST, because of that I am not able to transport the changes to next system, so I want know how to create the request for this case.
    Thanks

    Hello Chetan,
    You could goto the selection screen texts by goto-> selection texts,
    Then you could again goto -> Translation
    or
    Other-> Translation(Not sure )
    Then double click on the Program you should be able to see the Texts that need translation, now change something save and come back and try to activate, now it should propose for a new Transport Request.
    Either create a new transaport request or give one that you have given for the program.
    Hope the issue is resolved.

    The MTU setting on the interface is the layer 3 packet size. In this case, the MTU is set to 1500, but the largest frame size transmitted on the interface (including layer 2 headers) is 1516. It sounds like you are experiencing another problem at the LES.

  • ESS Workflow 10000015 Approve request for changing address thru Portal ESS

    Hi Experts,
    We want to implement ESS workflow 01000015 u201Cchange (infotype 0006) Address will be blocking until approved/rejected by Administratoru201D. The workflow is trigger OK from R3, user creates a new address and IT0006 is blocking till administrator approve or reject.
    What we want now is to trigger this workflow from Portal, but here is the problem:
    1.-  I do not see any option (button) for creating a new address from Portal iView, what else is missing??? I believe creating new address from Portal could trigger this workflow, but I am not sureu2026
    2.- If the first option does not work I would like to trigger this workflow by the event u201CChangeu201D, so I need to edit the address. From R3 is blocking IT0006 OK, but from portal is not blocking the address at allu2026 What else is missing??? I do not know if this could be an issue from R3 or Portalu2026.
    We already check u201CNote 495971 - Workflow 01000015 is not triggered when changing addressu201D and workflow is working ok only from R3.
    Regardsu2026..

    Hi Swamy,
    I am a little confused of you requirement. The scenario here is that Person A (Any person using ESS) must not change any of his/her own personal data until Person B Approve/Reject the new Data. For example: if a user A want to change his/her address, personal data etc. must be approve or reject for another person B. This is a validation that most of the companies want to have in order to validate this information. Employees may change their personal data, but how HR area validates if this new information is real or not...  One way to verify this new information is a validation for a Person B who will be to approve or reject this information. Now if you do not have this scenario I believe you will not have to do this implementation class because ESS do not have this scenario. The standard ESS functionality is available for change any data without validation and this should be working right now on your Enterprise Portal.
    If you want to have a validation for a third User, Person B, you may check these points:
    1. Edit 2. New Permanent address
    Edit - Will change the record irrespective of dates. This will modify the current record which is valid as of today.
    New Permanent address - This will create a new record effective today and previous record will be delimited.
    If I use lock functionality in Edit scenario, then in the portal it will dispaly previous record which is not the correct data.
    For 2nd case, this will insert the new record, so Lock may work in this case. I will check this.
    I believe you will work most of the time with "Edit" button. If Person A edit address, the new register will be created and locked in PA30 Infotype  6 until person B Approve/Reject. How Person B knows if someone has edit his/her address?? You may achieve this using Universal Work List and notification. You may have to create a task for person B with email notification, so person B will be enter into Portal and check his/her new task from the UWL. This task will be ITS UI front end and from here person B decide if approve or reject. If Person B approve, the new register will be unlocked and replace the last one (Also in Portal). If person B reject, the register blocked will be gone and the last one remains.
    This should work for any infotype . Check only the type of event generated for any of them in order to trigger the workflow.
    Do you have any idea how to achieve this for Personal details where the Lock/Unlock functionality is not available.
    Standard ESS works without any lock/unlock functionality. remove the current workflow if you have used any.
    Regards
    David Corté

  • Changing field size by typing

    Dear,
    Is there a way to use use a multi ligne texte field without à scroll bar.
    Is it possible to let the field changing size with the typed text ?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If you set the textfield to plain text and limit to visible area and set the font of the value to '0' - then the font will start off at 12pt and will automatically reduce once the field has filled up. Takes some experimenting to get the size right for the average content the user will put in. Otherwise the font becomes too small.
