IFS API Character Limitation


Forum|alt.badge.img+8

We are using the Receive_Customer_Order BizAPI within IFS. And we noticed that there is a limitation of 30 characters for Address line 2. Does anyone know a way to adjust this limitation to let’s say 50 characters, without modification from IFS?

Isn’t the limit a database limitation? Address lines are limited to 30 or 35 characters, I believe; at least the first 2 or 3 are. The API cannot work around a data field limit.

Not sure what LU the data ultimately ends up in, though. If you check the final resting place for that line, what is the length of the field in Oracle?

 

Thanks,

Joe Kaufman

Thank you for the reply. Yes I stated it wrong before but the Address 2 on Customer is a 35 character length. This is causing some issues when using an API from our website to IFS, as it generates an error when users are putting in anything over 35 characters. Thanks again!
