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 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.)
