Susan I am doing the same but using the incident interface create form. I had a similar issue a while back and someone on the list suggested I enclose the value of the field with [$$ and $$]

The type of behavior you are describing can happen when the distinction is not made in Oracle by your DBA. There may be other issues like the field length in the staging form, or intermediary out-of-the-box workflow that triggers before the workflow that pushes the value to the appropriate staging forms. But have your Oracle DBA check the following parameter: NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS=BYTE It is often set to CHAR, which would be a mistake and it can cause corruptive data issues. Hopefully that isn't the case, but if it is, have him/her change it to BYTE as soon as possible. Good luck!

The email engine retrieves them and I see the full message in the AR Email Messages form. The template in the email contains the form (staging form) that the message should populate. And it does populate the staging form, mostly. The description field does not populate completely in the staging form. It does in the Messages form. If there is a 'return' in the description, in the staging form no data appears after the 'return'. I have a support ticket in but no solution in the last week. I've suggested to the customer to use <br> in their tickets that are populating the template that comes to us but it was not received well. We do plan on testing that Tuesday. We have been receiving automated incoming tickets from some internal systems for years but those all have single line descriptions so there is no 'return' to deal with, so I don't know if it was working the same on v7.5. The field itself is a 4000 char field. Nothing else special about it. Full permissions for anyone to write. The user that is contained in the template has full basic permissions, fixed license. I take the info in the staging form record, create a HT retrieving additional information from a Site record to make a complete HT record. Since the staging form record doesn't have the full description there's no opportunity to try and manipulate the 'returns' with workflow. It's almost as if the email engine itself is truncating the contents. Has anyone seen this also? What was the solution? Any help would be appreciated.
