Chris,

We are on 7.6.04 without patch 1. Forgot if you were on p1 or not but
here's another issue we faced. Within the Notes of entering Work Info
entries, if the user types a line and hits enter, they can of course
keep typing but when they save the record, everything after the 1st line
break disappears. Score!

Okay, thanks - I see that I can take it to 7999 without CLOBbering it,
but 1500 is more reasonable.  We'll discuss it here first.

Hi

 

Yep we found the same thing and were forced to increase its size. To
prevent users from adding data that should be an attachment we
restricted the size to 1500, big enough for almost all text needed to be
explained in the WL but forces long email trails to an attachment.

 

We also check all the other apps to see if they had the same issue and
adjusted accordingly

Another interesting complaint today.  Apparently the WorkLog Notes field
(Notes: 304247080 z1D_Note) is resisting editing and limiting entry on
the Incident form, where it is limited to 255 characters.  The
underlying field on HPD:WorkLog is 0 length (Notes 1000000151 Detailed
Description), and the equivalent field on HPD:Help Desk Dialogs is also
0 length (Notes 301398800 z1D_Details).  One of the problems is that the
HPD:WorkLog form contains many records where this field is already
populated well beyond 255 characters - throwing an error when you view
and try to edit one of them through the Incident form.

 

The disconnect between HPD:Help Desk and HPD:Help Desk Dialogs is even
more puzzling, although the latter is Display Only and stores no data so
0 length comes cheap.  I'll be forced to consider lengthening it on the
Incident form overlay, and if it gets big enough to require a BLOB then
I might as well go for unlimited.   The helpdesk also complained that it
would not accept carriage returns when typing inside the text box; I'm
not sure what that's all about, or how to correct it. Of course this did
not show up in testing since no one bothered entering anything lengthy
in a test ticket.

 

Any comments from anyone who has already gone down this road?
