When you are retrieving the diary field from the AR System, the diary fieldis treated as a long character field containing all the historical diary entriesseparated by a special separator character. When you are sending a diaryfield to AR System, you only send the current entry.! Status History field is treated similarly to a diary field, but you cannot senda status history to the AR System.!
