19. Q: How can I see the field lengths
A: Technically speaking, field length specifications are not standard part of XML.
There have been proposed some standards but the general conclusion of any such
debate is always that XML should not be specifying lengths.
For informational purpose these are our standards
Strings are by default 50 characters UNLESS:
- They represent “User Codes” -> Length 5
- They represent “Descriptions” -> Length 255
- They represent “Comments” -> Length 800
- They are explicitly constrained to another length for technical reasons. An
example of this is street in the current interfaces which are constrained to 40 for
printing reasons
- Examples:
o NAM VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o AL1 VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o AL2 VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o STR VARCHAR2(40 CHAR)
o ZIP VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o CTY VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o MCP VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o EMA VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o TPH VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o TPH_ALT VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o GSM VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o FAX VARCHAR2(50 CHAR)
o GNDR_CDE VARCHAR2(5 CHAR)
