New fields getting truncated in flat file

Former Member

Hi All,

As per our requirements, three new custom fields have been added (which makes number of fields to 55) to the output field generation for the object IVSAK(Invoice cleared).

We are extracting invoice data into flat file but the new fields are getting truncated at 52nd and half column.

The variable length is 4096 char and in flat file it is just getting truncated at 512th character.

Please advise.

Regards

Archana

Hi Archana

Are you trying to access the file thru AL11? I have noticed that this transaction has some limits on file width.

Yes Rajesh, I am trying through AL11 only.

The header row is getting truncated but the data rows are coming completely as required.

Hi Archana

Thats what thought.

Okay, this is easy, you need to accesss the files directly from the folder where they get generated instead of going thru AL11.

The files themselves should not be truncated, its just the AL11 transaction that might have limitations. AL11 is part of standard BASIS/NW platform, not delivered with SPM.

Thanks Rajesh. I was suspecting AL11 having some limitations.

Thanks for the clue.
