Custom Fields - Data Length different _CFV to Custom Field?

IFSv10, Update 20, Oracle 19. Enterprise Edition.

We have seen some issues with our Customer Order screen since upgrading from v9 to v10.

The symptom is that occasionally when a user queries the Customer Order screen, it will throw an ‘System Exception Error’ (see bottom screenshot).

We found that the user then needs to open a new window to continue working in IFS.

We have since found that the user can right click on the effected window - Custom Objects - Reload Configuration. Which has now made me suspect one of our many Custom Fields may be causing the issue?

Now I am investigating our Custom Fields and have noticed that nearly all custom fields in the associated _CFV have a data length of varchar2 4000, despite many be much smaller than this in the Custom Fields screen in IFS? Is this normal?

 

FYI Original Error causing investigation:
