Hi Experts,
Do we need to know the length for the target system fields incase of IDOC to File scenario?

Hi Sara,
Knowing the length of fields of the target system message might be usefule, and many a times it is important to adhere to the pre-defined field lenghts. Though this depends on type of processing done on the target system. If the program that reads target file on the receiver system, uses the field length for validation or parsing - then it is important that we take care of this. If we are using any thirdparty tool on the other side for the further processing of the output file, say for EDI file processing, the field lengths are indeed of prime importance and should be taken care of.
It's always good practice to adhere to the standards and pre-defined schema/semantics of the output message, you never know where along the process chain this non-adherence going to have its actual impact.

Hi,
If the scenario is of IDOC to File then dont worry about the fields length.
After generating the file output if they are inserting data into any database and in that database if there is a fixed length for the fields then only you have to know the fields lenth and do the needful accordingly.

If the Target Application is not running on Database means , no need to worry abt the Lenth of the particular Field
