Increase stroage size for DXP description

  • Current DXP description is holding only few lines
  • Since we don't have versioning concept, we are noting down the changes in desc
  • Please increase the string size in DXP description
  • And also, Adding version/history details within DXP would be great

    Yeah agree with your solution.

     

    But personally, I felt if this option is enhanced in product level. That would be great.

    If you really want to track all your descriptions you should implement a trigger on the LIB_ITEMS table and store the previous description on a custom table. That way you can keep a full history of descriptions and only need to have the latest one on the description field.

    Yeah. Need more chars.When we are tracking date/timestamp and desc about changes to DXP while saving back to library.

    Some cases, changes text occupying more chars.

    Unfortunately, removing old text and appending new text

    It's currently 1000 characters, do you really need more than that?
