Hi,

The Component description is copied from Material Master.

I am not sure about ,increasing its length.

However u can use the "Item Text field" in item over view screen for Each Bom component.

1.I dont think this is possible as this is a standard SAP requriement.

2.check the data eleaement -which has the 40 as character lenth.

so it is not recomended to change it.

Solution

3.You can use the ItemLongTEXT - which doesnt have any restriction in the lenght.

so dont change the standard setting use the itmelONGTEXT this should solve ur issue
