Hi,

<b>You should not do this.</b>

Because for if you want to increase the length of this field you will have to change it at data element (MAKTX) level.

- First of all you will need access key for this.

- Secondly when you increase length of MAKTX, you will have to adjust active each table and structure in SAP wherever data element MAKTX is used.

- Also these are so many program in SAP which uses this field. You will have to analyse all of then to see how these program will be affected once you chance this field.

In short, you should not be doing this.

Let me know if you need any other information.

Regards,
