Hi

I don't think it is possible to increase the length of MAKTX more than 40 char.

What for he needs.

If he needs to enter some extra text let him use the Material LONG texts which are available in MM01 etc. (which we can fetch afterwards using READ_TEXT fun module and use )

generally when the lient needs to enter some extra data which is of more length we advise them to do like that.

If the client still insists in the material master of MM01 in SPRO You can try by increasing it.

Because there is no screen exits for MM01.
