You can use the

1. data type LCHR with length as you need(more than 600)

or

2. existing domain EDI_SDATA.--create the data lement as per your need.

u can define the field as follows -

parameters: p_char(600).

enter data on selection screen then..

depending upon ur requirement update or insert the record in databsa table..

Hi,

As you are storing the same data in table.

you already have created the table for this.

so in table field type use lchar and data element.

define parameter p like your table-field.
