fields in view shortened

[Former Member]

Hi All,

i have created a maintenance view on ztable. when i activated that view it got activated but before getting activated an warning message occurred indicating that some of the fields in the view got shortened, that means if there is a field of length 18 characters it has been shortened to 3 characters like that. because of this when i try to enter data in that field it is not accepting more than 3 characters though it is of 18 characters length. i just want to know where the mistake has gone and i want to know how the field can be restored to original length means the field must be able to accept 18 characters.

Thanks,

BJR.

Did you specify Field Lable properly for the data element of that field?

Hi,

It is suggested to have a data element and domain with the CHAR18. Hope this should solve

Hi Rhea,

i have maintained field labels correctly.

@shiva,

i think u r correct because i created data element but havent created domain i have directly used standard data types in the place of domain. let me check by creating domains.
