Task Name - Field length Change

Can we change the task name length for team members when adding a new task?
Regards, Syed Faizan ur Rehman, CBPM®,PRINCE2®, MCTS

Hi Syed,
If you want to change the task field length, it is not possible. It is a native field which is predefined in the system.
But if you want to change the length of the task name itself (for example "design" by "system design"), then it it possible since what matters is the task UID and not the task name.
Hope this helps,

  • Task Name Field, "Blank" ("") in 2007, "Empty" (Empty) in 2010, HOW TO FILD/FILTER for empty?

    In MS Project 2007, I can use VBA code in Excel and determine if the selected task “Name” field is blanks by using the code “pj.Activecell.text <> “”.
    In MS Project 2010, blank name cells are no longer “” (or blank), they are “Empty”. How do users filter for a non-standard value of “empty” then the text of “empty” is not in the task “Name” cell?

    Hi Dan,
    Since I almost know nothing about VBA and I can only read but not write code, I'll let John or Rod (VBA kings on this forum) jump in.
    But here is what I go recording the macro:
    Sub Macro1()
    SetAutoFilter FieldName:="Name", FilterType:=pjAutoFilterIn, Criteria1:=""
    End Sub
    Also ensure to have the latest version of Project 2010 since I noticed different behaviour with blank lines with 2 different versions.

    can you plz how to resolve this
    deva

    Hi,
    The way you used is right. ( cancel release or create a new segment )
    After you cancel release, try delete that field, and insert a new one.
    If it isn't valid still,  create a new segment instead.

  • Custom IDOC type Segment-field length change

    Hello,
    We have a custom segment developed for triggering Outbouds. I'm tring to change the Field length of a deta element used for one of the fields in the segment.
    But after chaning the data element and activating it also, the changes are not effecting in WE31/ in the structure of the segment.
    Process I'm following:
    we31 <segment>
    ......cancel release
    Change data element and activate
    ....set release.
    Please suggest if something else can be done
    Thanks,
    Lucky.

    > @Sarvesh: The IDOC segment has been released.  I also re-imported the IDOC into XI - is that what you mean by 'reloaded'?
    No, re-importing in XI is different from reloading the metadata into ABAP stack of XI using IDX2 transaction. So if you have not done this, then this could be the main reason of truncating the length.

  • Signon user name field length

    Folks - this might be a VERY simple question, but here goes.
    We have been trying to confirm the userid length available in ECC6/etc. Knowing that this has been constrained in previous releases to a shorter field length, i.e.?12? chars...we want to be able to use a firstname.lastname login format via SAP GUI, which for many of our users exceeds that character count. 
    Can someone confirm that the permissable field length has been extended?
    thanks in advance,
    Al

    Hi Al,
    the username field in ABAP systems has still 12 character length. The username is stored in upper case.
    However, if you are running a SAP NetWeaver Portal you have another option:
    - You use an LDAP directory as the user store for the portal -> The username is not limited anymore.
    - You add an additional LDAP attribute (e.g. SAPusername) to map the entries to the ABAP username (which still is limited to 12 character upper case)
    - You use LDAP syncronization in the ABAP system to keep the users in the directory and in the ABAP in sync.
    - Finally you use the Single Sign-On capabilities to call ABAP applications using the portal.
    Kind regards
    Frank
    P.S. The ITS is able to use the alias-field in the ABAP user master record, too. See Online Help for details:

  • Name of track changes to modified date when importing mp4

    I have two .mp4 files: (both names listed below are the filenames)
    Valentines Day Torin.mp4 with a modified filed date of 02/15/2010
    Phoebe Confirmation Entrance.mp4 with a modified date of 03/18/2010
    When I import the Valentines Day Torin file, the filename stays the same.  The "Name" field is also the filename. This is what I want.
    When I import the Phoebe Confirmation Entrance, the filename stays the same. The "Name" field is changed to "Mar 18, 2010 3:52pm".
    Anyone know why?
    Also, does anyone know how to get iTunes to stop changing the modified date on files when you change any info in the "Get Info" area.
    I find it quite hard to import a lot of home videos into Itunes.  File name length limitations, changing of modified dates, just can't figure this out..
    I have all my videos in order according to the modified date since titles can't be more than 36 characters, but can't figure out an easy way to sort chronologically.
    Thanks,
    Derek

    Check the file withEXIF Viewer or Reveal to see what the EXIF Capture Date is. iPhoto uses that for photos from digital cameras.

  • Extend data source field length

    Hallo experts,
    I wonder, what are the influences in BW if a R/3 data source field length changes.
    Example: size of VBAP customer field ZZ_TEXTis changed from 40 to 80 chars. Data are extracted via 2LIS_11_VAITM datasource.
    1) After replication of new datasource, what happens, if the infosource is not updated to the new size, is the field just truncated? Is the next delta load working or is an init load necessary?
    2) If fieldsize is updated in infosource and infoproviders too, what happens to the delta management?
    Thanks for your ideas!

    1) After replication of new datasource, what happens, if the infosource is not updated to the new size, is the field just truncated? Is the next delta load working or is an init load necessary?
    Ans : First of all I dont understand why you need to load text as transactional data.You could have mainitained a infoobject for customer and could have maintained text for it.This would have made your job simple.
    If above is not your case and if text is transaction data then ya if you dont update the infoobject with correct length it will be truncated.
    If its from now on the text is changed then you can change it now but I think it wont allow it to change as long as you delete it where ever its used.Hence you will need to reload.
    2) If fieldsize is updated in infosource and infoproviders too, what happens to the delta management?
    Ans : You may have to reload.
    Hope this helps.

  • Forms not updating field lengths

    All,
    I've been changing field lengths in forms all day in OIM 9.1, and it never updates the actual column lengths when the form is activated. I've reverted to directly updating the column sizes in the database to get things working. Am I missing something here, or are field length changes in OIM completely useless?
    S

    We faced recently a similiar problem, but regarding export/import operations.
    We changed the forms in our dev environment, and sizes updated correctly in the database. But when exporting and importing the forms into the QA environment, although field size in the form definition was updated, the field size in the database table didn't.
    The workaround we found was to manually change field sizes in the form definition.
    Hope this help!

    hello probable something simple but how do i permanently change the Name Field in the "Mail, contacts, calendars" setup.
    I press details to enter my own but each time i do the name field is over-written with a previous owner or user of the mac.
    Until this is complete i cannot sync contacts and calendars as i want to, using OS X Mountain LIon. 

    Go to System Preferences > iCloud
    Sign out of the current Apple ID
    Sign in with your ID.
    System Preferences > Users & Groups
    Change name for current User.
    However, I HIGHLY suggest that you create a new User and move all your data to the new User or do an erase and install.
    1) Move to a new User. See directions here:
    Move your data to a new User or a new Mavericks partition**
    2) Backup your data to an external drive using clone software. While booted from the clone erase the internal drive and reinstall OS X.
    **(Fair disclosure: NeedHelp4Mac is my site. I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.)
    Both of these applications can be used to create a clone.

    You will need an external drive to create the clone unless your internal drive is large enough to create a second partition large enough to hold all your data.

    If the only solution is to change the sap standard program, simply change the program, it will prompt for an access key. This key can be retrieved in the SAP support portal (service.sap.com) at keys and requests, sccr keys, register object.
    Sometimes these actions are outsourced to a competence center, so maybe youre not entitled to do this, in any case ask a resident senior developer for support.

  • I want to extend table "hr_location_extra_info_lei" column name "lei_information3" field length from 16 to 30 and was wondering if I can do this and how?

    I am trying to extend the field length for colun lei_information 3 from 16 characters to 30 characters in the table hr_location_extra_info_lei, but cannot seem to do this.  Can the length be changed and if so how?
    Many thanks
    Louise

    Hi Louise,
    All the "lei_informationX" columns in   hr_location_extra_info  table are of size VARCHAR2(150) (Oracle EBS R12).
    So I understand why you're saying it's limited to 16 characters.
    May it's only a question of your setup limiting it to 16 car., in which case you can easily change it to 30 by unfreezing the DFF and modifying it.
