Long texts provide a detailed description of articles and generally represent a group text that can be assigned to a group of similar articles (e.g., multiple products in a series). These texts are also made available to end customers in quotations or invoices. Long texts are not tender texts but can be a maximum part of it. For maintaining long texts, 99 lines with 40 characters each are available.
Providing them is mandatory when used in other publications. Exception: Spare parts used in spare part lists.
Inhalt | Description | Structur |
|---|---|---|
Long text number | Identification number | Text 8 |
Long text line number | Consecutive line number of the long text 1-99 | Integer 9 |
Long text line | Text content: a maximum of 40 characters per line | Text 40 |
As a result, long texts are not maintained directly on the article. Instead, through a unique identification number assigned to the article, there is a reference to the corresponding long text
Inhalt | Beschreibung | Struktur |
|---|---|---|
Long text number | Identification number, reference to the associated long text | Text 8 |
Guidance for providing long texts
The long texts must not be hyphenated or truncated.
Long texts should generally not be identical to the short texts. There are, of course, products for which a more detailed description is not necessary, such as a screw.
Dummy values are also not allowed here. (Dummy texts are texts without content or with incorrect information.)
