Hi Vamsi,

There are data elements available in SAP system.

Like : CHAR512, CHAR1024, CHAR1250 etc.. you can use them or otherwise you can create your own data element too..

Thanks and Best Regards,

Hello Vamsi,

Have you tried referencing a filed of type string? There is no upper limit on data type of string.

Regards. Please reward useful tips.
