Help needed in table maintenance

[Former Member]

Dear all

I have to add a few fields in existing Z-table. When I try to add a field to the table, I get an error that

Table <table name> is too long (>1962). Can any one guide what's the meaning of this and how to correct the same.

Thanks in advance. Points for sure.

Hi,

The total field lengths of the data elements used in your table is more than 1962, which is the max permissible limit.

Reduce the length of some of the text fields which you feel is extra and then embed your new field,

This should solve your problem.

Hope this helps!!!

Just write the new field name and before activating it do

go to Utilitis,Database Object, database Utility, Activate and adjust database.
