Hi:

Data has to fit in PRELP structure. According to help.sap.com it is limited to 1000 position. "A new infotype is limited to a maximum of 1000 positions. This restriction is due of the length of structure PRELP, which is used as a container during infotype processing." [url]http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/en/60/d8d8c7576311d189270000e8322f96/frameset.htm[url]

PRELP structure exceed 2000 bytes, I guess post-changes where implemented.

Please check note:

Note 563145 - Enhancing the PRELP structure and extras

And later Note 1168062 - Enhancing the PRELP structure (from EHP4)

If you are under EHP4

You can also consider the option of storing partial record in customer table.

Hope it helps.

The infotype does have a limitation in size, i think it's around 2000 bytes, so it all depends on the lenght of the fields. I think there is also some limitation in the number of fields, but i'm not sure on that one. This is due to the structures used to update infotypes like prelp.

Hello,

What do you mean by Storage capacity, please elaborate.

As far as i know There was nothing like stored capacity, you can enhance the infotype if it has CI include as it was the standarad infotype you don't need to bother for storage capacity, just add the fields and write the required coding in module pool.
